A military force consisting of approximately twenty thousand soldiers is typically organized and designated as an army corps or a large division, commanded by a high-ranking officer such as a lieutenant general or major general. Historically, ancient and medieval military formations of this magnitude were often referred to as an army, a legion grouping, or a grand host, depending on the civilization and era. In modern military structures, a corps usually comprises multiple divisions and incorporates tens of thousands of troops supported by specialized artillery, armor, logistical supply units, and tactical command elements to operate as a self-sustaining operational formation on the battlefield.
