Not to worry. I haven't gone all loopy in a fantasy world. The Chinese have dropped the "people's liberation" from their military's names:
Without any fanfare, China has changed the names of its armed forces. Gone are the PLA (Peoples Liberation Army) prefix for the navy (PLAN) and air force (PLAAF). It's now just the Chinese Army, Chinese Navy and Chinese Air Force.
With an increasingly aware and restless public and your standard dictatorial government, it is best not to let the idea that liberating the people is something the military should think about.
