The British Army is the land warfare branch of the British Armed Forces of the United Kingdom. It came into being with the unification of the Kingdoms of England and Scotland into the Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707. The new British Army incorporated Regiments that had already existed in England and Scotland and was administered by the War Office from London. It has been managed by the Ministry of Defence since 1964.

  • L’Exèrcit Britànic és la branca de terra de les Forces armades del Regne Unit. El seu origen rau en la unificació dels Regnes d’Anglaterra i Escòcia, per convertir-se en el Regne de la Gran Bretanya al 1707. El nou Exèrcit britànic incorpora regiments que ja existien tant a Anglaterra com a Escòcia i era administrat per l’Oficina de Guerra de Londres. Des de 1963, és dirigit pel Ministeri de Defensa. Actualment està format per 109.740 soldats (amb 98.560 preparats), a més de 3.640 Gurkhas i 34.000 soldats de l’Exèrcit Territorial, donant uns 147.000 soldats en actiu a l’octubre de 2008. Els membres a temps complert són anomenats sovint com el Regular Army des de la creació al 1908 del Territorial Army, format per reservistes. L’Exèrcit britànic actualment està desplegat per diverses zones del món en conflicte, tant com a Cos Expedicionari o com a Forces en Tasques de Manteniment de la Pau de les Nacions Unides. Actualment està desplegat a Kosovo, Xipre, Alemanya, Iraq, Afganistan, i a d’altres llocs. En contrast amb la Royal Navy, els Royal Marines i la Royal Air Force, l’Exèrcit no inclou la paraula “Royal” (Reial). En primer lloc això és degut a que històricament l’Exèrcit Britànic és l’Exèrcit del Parlament i no pas de la Corona. Això es confirmà mitjançant la Llei de Drets de 1689, demanant l’autoritat del Parlament permantenir un exèrcit en temps de pau. No obstant això, molts dels seus regiments i cossos constituents tenen noms reials i tenen membres de la Família Reial ocupant càrrecs superiors. Si bé nominalment el cap de l’Exèrcit britànic és el superior, el seu cap professional és el Cap de l'Estat Major General, actualment Sir Sir Peter Wall KCB CBE ADC Gen..
  • Britská armáda jsou pozemní síly Britských ozbrojených sil. Vznikly v důsledku spojení Anglického království a Skotského království do Spojeného království Velké Británie v roce 1707 spojením anglických a skotských jednotek. Kromě Britské armády je součástí Britských ozbrojených sil (British Armed Forces) také Královské námořnictvo (Royal Navy) a Královské letectvo (Royal Air Force). Od roku 1964 jsou ozbrojené složky řízeny Ministerstvem obrany (Ministry of Defence). K polovině roku 2011 zaměstnávala Britská armáda 110 210 řadových vojáků (všetně 3860 tzv. Ghurků – Brigade of Ghurkas) a 33 100 vojáků Teritoriální armády, což dohromady tvoří sílu 143 310 vojáků. Regular reservers (Pravidelné zálohy) Britské armády čítají navíc ještě 121 800 osob. Pravidelná část armády je od roku 1907, kdy vznikla Territorial Force (Teritoriální armáda), také označována jako Regular Army (Pravidelná armáda). Britská armáda je nasazena v mnoha válečných zónách světa, ať už jako expediční síla či jako součást mírových sil Organizace spojených národů. Britská armáda momentálně působí v Kosovu, na Kypru, v Německu, Afghánistánu a v dalších zemích. Všichni členové armády přísahají (či potvrzují) věrnost panovníkovi jakožto formálnímu vrchnímu veliteli, velitelem Britské armády je náčelník generálního štábu (Chief of the General Staff).
  • British Army [ˌbrɪtɪʃ ɑːmɪ] ist die Bezeichnung der Landstreitkräfte des Vereinigten Königreiches. Im Unterschied zu den beiden anderen Teilstreitkräften des Vereinigten Königreichs, der Royal Air Force und der Royal Navy, trägt die British Army nicht den Zusatz „Royal“ in ihrem Namen, was ihrer Tradition als Parlamentsheer entspricht. Sie ist formell dem britischen Monarchen als Oberbefehlshaber der Gesamtstreitkräfte unterstellt. Seit 1962 besteht die British Army ausschließlich aus Freiwilligen. Größere Einsatzgebiete in letzter Zeit waren Nordirland, die Falklandinseln, Kosovo, Afghanistan sowie der Irak.

The British Army is currently deployed in Kosovo, Cyprus, Germany, Afghanistan and many other places. All members of the Army swear (or affirm) allegiance to the monarch as commander-in-chief. However the Bill of Rights of 1689 requires Parliamentary consent for the Crown to maintain a standing army in peacetime. Parliament therefore annually approves the continued existence of the Army. In contrast to the Royal Navy, Royal Marines and Royal Air Force, the British Army does not include Royal in its title. Many of the Army's constituent Regiments and Corps have been granted the "Royal" prefix and have members of the Royal Family occupying senior positions within some regiments. The professional head of the British Army is the Chief of the General Staff, currently General Sir Peter Wall KCB CBE ADC Gen.

  • Britannian armeija on Yhdistyneen kuningaskunnan asevoimien maavoimat. Ne muodostettiin Englannin ja Skotlannin kuningaskuntien sulautuessa Yhdistyneeksi kuningaskunnaksi vuonna 1707. Uusi brittiarmeija koostui aiemmista Englannin ja Skotlannin rykmenteistä. Armeijaa johti War Office, vuodesta 1963 lähtien puolustusministeriö. Huhtikuussa 2007 brittiarmeijan miesvahvuus oli noin 101 310 miestä ja tämän luvun lisäksi Territoriaaliarmeijaan kuului 38 460 miestä. Erona maan asevoimien muihin haaroihin, kuten laivastoon tai ilmavoimiin, armeijan nimeen ei liitetä sanaa kuninkaallinen. Tästä huolimatta monet perinteiset rykmentit ja joukot ovat nimetty kuninkaallisiksi. Armeijaa johtaa pääesikunnan päällikkö, joka tällä hetkellä on Sir Peter Wall.
  • La British Army est la branche terrestre de l'armée du Royaume-Uni. Elle fait partie, avec la Royal Navy et la Royal Air Force, des Forces armées britanniques (British Armed Forces). Elle a pris part à de nombreux conflits à travers les années et à travers le monde, lui conférant un grand prestige dans l'Histoire militaire. Elle est composée de plus de 114 000 soldats réguliers, ainsi que 35 000 soldats de réserve, soit un total de près de 150 000 soldats fin 2009. La British Army est la seconde plus grosse armée de l'Union européenne, après l'armée française. Elle est déployée dans de nombreuses zones de conflits, en tant que force expéditionnaire ou force de maintien de la paix sous couvert des Nations unies, et est actuellement positionnée au Kosovo, à Chypre, en Allemagne, en Afghanistan, etc. Contrairement à la Royal Navy, aux Royal Marines et à la Royal Air Force, la British Army ne contient pas « Royal » dans son nom pour des raisons historiques : elle fut déclarée Armée du Parlement (au lieu d'Armée de la Couronne) par la Déclaration des droits (Bill of Rights) de 1689. Cependant, beaucoup des régiments et unités de la British Army ont conservé le préfixe « Royal » dans leurs noms, et bénéficient du commandement de certains membres de la famille royale. Le Chef d'État-Major général de l'armée professionnelle est actuellement le Général Sir David Richards KCB CBE DSO]].
  • British Army è il nome delle forze armate di terra britanniche. Nacque nel 1707 con l'unificazione dei governi e delle forze armate di Inghilterra e Scozia nel Regno Unito di Gran Bretagna, incorporando reggimenti preesistenti dei due regni e quindi posto sotto il controllo del War Office di Londra. Nel 2006 ne facevano parte 107.730 soldati, altri 38.460 appartenevano al Territorial Army. Per distinguerla dal Territorial Army, il British Army è indicato anche come Regular Army. La forza armata è oggi dispiegata in molte zone di guerra di tutto il mondo come parte di forze di combattimento e di forze di peacekeeping delle Nazioni Unite. Diversamente da Royal Navy, Royal Marines e Royal Air Force, il British Army non ha l'aggettivo "Royal" nel suo nome perché alcune unità con cui fu formato nel 1707 già non avevano il prefisso "Royal" nel proprio.
  • イギリス陸軍（イギリスりくぐん、British Army）は、イギリス連合王国（United Kingdom）の陸軍。現在では、海軍、空軍と共にイギリス軍を構成している。
  • 영국 육군은 영국의 영토 방위를 책임지는 군사기관이며, 11만 4천 명의 정규군을 거느리고 있다. 1963년부터 국방부에 소속되어 있으며, 최고사령관은 엘리자베스 2세 여왕이다.
  • De British Army (Britse Leger) is de landmachttak van de British Armed Forces. Dit leger ontstond met de vereniging van de Koninkrijken van Engeland en Schotland in het Koninkrijk Groot-Brittannië in 1707. De nieuwe British Army nam de regimenten die al in Engeland en Schotland bestonden in zich op en werd bestuurd door het War Office in Londen. Sinds 1963 wordt het bestuurd door het Ministerie van Defensie. De British Army bestaat uit 109.740 reguliere soldaten (van wie 98.560 getraind), plus 3.640 Gurkhas en 34.000 soldaten van het Territoriale leger, totaal rond de 147.000 soldaten in oktober 2008. Het beroepselement van het Britse leger wordt ook aangeduid als de Regular Army sinds de oprichting in 1908 van het reserve Territoriale Leger. Het Britse leger wordt ingezet in grote delen van de wereld zowel als Expeditionary Forces als in vredesoperaties van de Verenigde Naties. Het Britse leger is nu gedetacheerd in Kosovo, Cyprus, Duitsland, Irak, Afghanistan en andere plaatsen. In tegenstelling tot de Royal Navy, Royal Marines en Royal Air Force, voert het Britse leger geen "Koninklijk" in haar naam. Dit is vooral omdat historisch het British Army het leger van het Parlement is en niet van de Kroon. Deze positie werd bevestigd door de Bill of Rights van 1689 die parlementaire goedkeuring vereist om een paraat leger in vredestijd in stand te houden. Niettemin zijn veel van de regimenten en korpsen Koninklijk gestileerd Sjabloon:Bron? en hebben leden van de Koninklijke familie hoge posities in sommige regimenten bekleed.
  • British Army er Storbritannias hær. Sammen med Royal Navy og Royal Air Force utgjør den de britiske væpnede styrker. Per april 2004 bestod hæren av 99 400 fulltrente, profesjonelle soldater i aktiv tjeneste.
  • British Army (Armia Brytyjska) – wojska lądowe Brytyjskich Sił Zbrojnych, powstałe w 1707 roku po zjednoczeniu Anglii i Szkocji w Królestwo Wielkiej Brytanii. W grudniu 2008 roku liczba żołnierzy pełniących służbę zawodową w British Army wynosiła 104 960. Dodatkowo służbę pełni niewielka liczba Gurkhów oraz żołnierze ochotniczej Armii Terytorialnej. Obecnym naczelnym dowódcą British Army jest Sir David Julian Richards.
  • O Exército Britânico é o ramo de guerra terrestre das Forças Armadas do Reino Unido. Surgiu com a unificação dos Reinos da Inglaterra e Escócia para formar o Reino da Grã-Bretanha em 1707. O novo exército britânico incorporou regimentos que já existiam na Inglaterra e na Escócia, e era administrado pelo Departamento de Guerra de Londres. Tem sido gerenciado pelo Ministério da Defesa (Reino Unido) desde 1964. Desde 2011, emprega 110.210 regulares (que inclui 3.860 da Brigada de Gurkhas) e 33.100 territoriais para um componente de força combinada de 143.310 soldados. Além disso, há 121.800 reservas regulares do exército britânico. O elemento de tempo integral do exército britânico também tem sido referido como Exército Regular desde a criação da Força Territorial de reservistas em 1908. O Exército Britânico está implantado em muitas das zonas de guerra do mundo, como parte de ambas as Forças Expedicionárias e Forças de manutenção da paz das Nações Unidas. O Exército Britânico está atualmente implantado no Kosovo, Chipre, Alemanha, Afeganistão, Iraque e muitos outros lugares. Todos os membros do Exército juram (ou afirmam) fidelidade ao monarca como comandante-em-chefe. No entanto, a Declaração de Direitos de 1689 exige o consentimento do Parlamento para a Coroa manter um exército permanente, em tempos de paz. Assim, o Parlamento aprova anualmente a existência contínua do Exército. Em contraste com a Royal Navy, Royal Marines e Royal Air Force, o exército britânico não inclui o termo "Real" em seu título. Muitos dos regimentos e corpos constituíntes do exército obtiveram o termo "Real" e tem membros da Família Real ocupando posições sênior dentro de alguns regimentos. O chefe de carreira do exército britânico é o Chefe do Estado Maior Geral, atualmente o General Sir Peter Wall.
  • Сухопутные войска Великобритании или Британская армия — сухопутный компонент вооружённых сил Великобритании. Британская армия была образована при объединении правительств и армий Шотландии и Англии в Соединённое Королевство в 1707 году. Новая Британская армия включила, существовавшие к тому времени, английские и шотландские полки под управление Военного Министерства. Профессиональная Британская армия считается регулярной армией, а Территориальная — вспомогательной и резервистской. Британская армия участвует в боевых действиях во многих горячих точках как часть многонациональных сил, а также участвует в операциях ООН по поддержанию мира.
  • Storbritanniens armén är de landbaserade styrkorna i Storbritanniens försvarsmakt och 2006 hade de 107 730 man under vapen. Den skapades då Skottlands och Englands förenades inom det förenade kungariket 1707. Den nya brittiska armén inkluderade regementen från England och Skottland och styrdes från London. Den stående delenn av armén kallas ofta Regular Army (reguljära armén) efter bildandet av Territorial Army (territoriella armén). Armén är stationerad i många krigszoner i världen som en stridande styrka och ingår i några av FN:s fredsbevarande styrkor. Till skillnad från flottan (Royal Navy), marinkåren (Royal Marines) och flygvapnet (Royal Air Force) inkluderar inte armén (British Army) "Royal" i sitt namn, detta på grund av att det inte är en organisation som skapats genom kungligt beslut (Royal Prerogative), utan genom parlamentsbeslut.
  • Брита́нська А́рмія — сухопутні війська Великої Британії, найбільший за чисельністю вид Збройних сил Великобританії, один з трьох видів Збройних сил Великої Британії. Армія призначена для ведення активних бойових дій на суходолі; до її складу входять військові об'єднання, з'єднання, частини та підрозділи піхоти, повітряно-десантних військ, танкових військ, армійської авіації, артилерії, війська ППО, розвідки та інших родів військ та спеціальних військ.
  • 英國陸軍（British Army），英國軍隊的陸上武裝部隊，是從蘇格蘭與英格蘭的武裝部隊、政經文架構，在1707年合併為大不列顛王國時形成。至2006年止，英國陸軍人數大約為十萬七千七百三十名正規軍官兵，及三萬八千四百六十名國土軍官兵。英國陸軍經常被部署於全球每一角落的戰地參與戰鬥部隊、多國聯軍、或聯合國維持和平部隊行動。 與三軍其餘兩支部隊比較，英國陸軍是沒有「皇家」頭銜的。主要原因是根据1689年签署的英国权利法案，英国陆军是隶属于英国议会而不是英国皇室。尽管如此，地面部隊內的衆多軍團（Regiments），已經長期以來依然採用「皇家」頭銜。皇家陸軍不存在原因是1642—1648年所發生英國內戰，以奧利弗·克倫威爾為首英國議會的新模範軍反對英王查理一世的統治，成功推翻並處死查理一世，克倫威爾所領的新模範軍屬於陸軍，其後的查理二世復辟之後，鑒於陸軍有過弒君的歷史記錄，造成查理一世皇族成員有難以消弭的仇恨記憶與復仇血債烙印，查理二世拒絕頒給陸軍使用「皇家」字樣的御用名稱，唯獨賜予頒受給海軍冠名皇家海軍稱號，此一深遠遺流下的傳統影響至現今。

It came into being with the unification of the Kingdoms of England and Scotland into the Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707. The new British Army incorporated Regiments that had already existed in England and Scotland and was administered by the War Office from London. It has been managed by the Ministry of Defence since 1964. The professional head of the British Army is the Chief of the General Staff, currently General Sir Peter Wall. The full-time element of the British Army is referred to as the Regular Army and has been since the creation of the reservist Territorial Force in 1908. All members of the Army swear (or affirm) allegiance to the monarch as commander-in-chief. However the Bill of Rights of 1689 requires Parliamentary consent for the Crown to maintain a standing army in peacetime. Parliament therefore annually approves the continued existence of the Army. In contrast to the Royal Navy, Royal Marines and Royal Air Force, the British Army does not include Royal in its title. Many of the Army's constituent Regiments and Corps have been granted the "Royal" prefix and have members of the Royal Family occupying senior positions within some regiments. Throughout its history, the British Army has seen action in a number of major wars involving the world's great powers, including the Seven Years' War, the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War, World War I and World War II. Repeatedly emerging victorious from these decisive wars has allowed Britain to influence world events with its policies and establish itself as one of the world's leading military and economic powers. Today, the British Army is deployed in many countries as part of both Expeditionary Forces and a United Nations Peacekeeping force. The British Army is currently deployed in Cyprus, Germany, Afghanistan and many other places.

The new British Army incorporated existing English and Scottish regiments, and was controlled from London. Following William and Mary's accession to the throne, England involved itself in the War of the Grand Alliance primarily to prevent a French invasion restoring Mary's father, James II. Following the 1707 union of England and Scotland, and the 1801 creation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, British foreign policy, on the continent, was to contain expansion by its competitor powers such as France and Spain. Spain, the dominant global power, and chief threat to England's early trans-Atlantic ambitions, in the previous two centuries, was already waning. The territorial ambitions of the French, however, led to the War of the Spanish Succession and the Napoleonic Wars. Russian activity led to the Crimean War. After 1745 recruits were increasingly drawn from Scotland; by the mid-1760s between one fifth and one third of officers were from Scotland. From the time of the end of the Seven Years' War in 1763, Great Britain and its successor the United Kingdom has been one of the leading military and economic powers of the world.

  • Брита́нська А́рмія — сухопутні війська Великої Британії, найбільший за чисельністю вид Збройних сил Великобританії, один з трьох видів Збройних сил Великої Британії.

  • 英國陸軍（British Army），英國軍隊的陸上武裝部隊，是從蘇格蘭與英格蘭的武裝部隊、政經文架構，在1707年合併為大不列顛王國時形成。至2006年止，英國陸軍人數大約為十萬七千七百三十名正規軍官兵，及三萬八千四百六十名國土軍官兵。英國陸軍經常被部署於全球每一角落的戰地參與戰鬥部隊、多國聯軍、或聯合國維持和平部隊行動。 與三軍其餘兩支部隊比較，英國陸軍是沒有「皇家」頭銜的。主要原因是根据1689年签署的英国权利法案，英国陆军是隶属于英国议会而不是英国皇室。尽管如此，地面部隊內的衆多軍團（Regiments），已經長期以來依然採用「皇家」頭銜。皇家陸軍不存在原因是1642—1648年所發生英國內戰，以奧利弗·克倫威爾為首英國議會的新模範軍反對英王查理一世的統治，成功推翻並處死查理一世，克倫威爾所領的新模範軍屬於陸軍，其後的查理二世復辟之後，鑒於陸軍有過弒君的歷史記錄，造成查理一世皇族成員有難以消弭的仇恨記憶與復仇血債烙印，查理二世拒絕頒給陸軍使用「皇家」字樣的御用名稱，唯獨賜予頒受給海軍冠名皇家海軍稱號，此一深遠遺流下的傳統影響至現今。
