Military Units And Formations Established In 1876
A military, also known collectively as armed forces, is a heavily Weapon, armed, highly organized force primarily intended for warfare. Militaries are typically authorized and maintained by a sovereign state, with their members identifiable by a distinct military uniform.

The main task of a military is usually defined as defence of their state and its interests against external armed threats.
