Regiment
A regiment is a military unit, consisting of a variable number of battalions - commanded by a colonel. Depending on the nation of origin and mission, a modern regiment may be similar to a brigade, in that both range in size from a few hundred to a 2,000 soldiers (3- to 7 standard companies), depending on the branch of service and method of organization. Regiments and/or brigades are generally grouped into divisions. The modern unit varies in size, scope and administrative role from nation to nation (and may not exist in some militaries), and sometimes even within the armed forces of the same nations.
