Top Armies: An Army is the land branch of a country’s armed forces, responsible for ground warfare and territorial defense. It is usually the largest and most diverse force, including infantry, armored forces (such as tanks), artillery, engineers, and various support units.
The main functions of an army are the protection of a country’s sovereignty, offensive-operations, peace-keeping, support, logistics, disaster relief and basically doing everything to protect the country’s interests.
Armies also participate in a variety of specialized operations, such as counterinsurgency, urban warfare, and amphibious assaults. Modern armies are highly trained and equipped with cutting edge technology such as armored vehicles, helicopters, drones and advanced communication systems.
Historically, armies have played a key role in shaping world events, from the conquest of ancient empires to modern conflicts and peacekeeping missions.
