Two modern armies have been known in English as the Chinese Army:
- People's Liberation Army of the People's Republic of China
- Republic of China Army (on Taiwan), which succeeded the National Revolutionary Army in 1947

Famous quotes containing the word army:
“I thought when I was a young man that I would conquer the world with truth. I thought I would lead an army greater than Alexander ever dreamed of. Not to conquer nations, but to liberate mankind. With truth. With the golden sound of the Word. But only a few of them heard. Only a few of you understood. The rest of you put on black and sat in chapel.”
—Philip Dunne (19081992)
