Ethnic Armies
Polyethnic Armed Forces from the Time of the Habsburgs to the Age of the Superpowers
Wilfrid Laurier University Press
Military History Symposium
Livre numérique
Ethnic Armies is a combination of essays focused on the subject of polyethnic
armed forces from the time of the Habsburgs to the age of the superpowers and
is a publication of the proceedings of the thirteenth Military History
Symposium, held at the Royal Military College of Canada in March 1986.
Multi-ethnic armed forces have existed since ancient times. The armies of the
ancient empires of the Middle East, of the Roman Emperors, and the Mongol
Khans, all tended to be conglomerations of diverse ethnic, religious, or
racial groups. A fundamental reason for their existence in the past and
present is that nations, from their earliest beginnings, tended to be
polyethnic. The phenomenon of polyethnic armed forces is a complex one,
however, and it is examined throughout this book by its contributors.
