Civil-military relations are still an under-researched area in relation to the existence and deployment of armed forces.However, it is the factor that significantly influences the management of the state and the use of relevant power tools,including the armed forces. The aim of this paper is to carry out research of the fundamental factors affecting theestablishment, deployment and control of armed forces. The research was carried out using the methods of analysis, synthesis,comparison, abstraction, deduction and prediction. It was found that in democratic states there is a legislative framework forthe establishment, deployment and control of armed forces. However, each state has its peculiarities. Their mutualunderstanding is important especially in multinational operations. This can help in reducing differences of opinions and inachieving both political synergy and military interoperability. This paper can assist both civilian and military officials inunderstanding their place in civil-military relations and their competencies in managing the armed forces.
