WHAT DOES GENDARMERY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

gendarmery

Gendarmerie

A gendarmerie or gendarmery is, in principle, a military force charged with police duties among civilian populations. Members of such a force are typically called "gendarmes". These units are also associated with other descriptions, such as maréchaussée or Guard or Constabulary. The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary describes gendarme as "a soldier who is employed on police duties" and a "gendarmery, -erie" as "gendarmes as a body". Sometimes forces that are no longer military still use the title for historic reasons, in the same manner as many other units use obsolete military titles but these are not strictly gendarmeries. The system of militarily organized police departments enlarged upon Europe since the Napoleonic era as well as in many former French colonies and mandated territories.
