User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-5043481-20131212163029

The military in MH. Firstly, we know that it exists, as we have generals making quest requests and other such mentions. From this we see that they do at least some of the time fight monsters. However they are not as good as the hunters from the guild, who are often recruited to hunt things for them.

What's the point of the military then, if the hunters can do thier job much easier and with fewer casualties? I don't think there are any wars in the MH universe.
