Army of the Grand Duchy of Baden

The Army of the Grand Duchy of Baden was the military force of the Grand Duchy of Baden, a German state that existed from 1806 to 1918. It was organized and equipped according to 19th-century standards, serving primarily for defense and maintaining internal order. The army included infantry, cavalry, artillery, and support units, operating under the authority of the grand duke. It participated in regional conflicts and integrated with broader German and European military alliances. After World War I, the army was dissolved as Baden transitioned into part of the Weimar Republic, reflecting the decline of monarchies and duchies in Germany.
