Military Strategy History: Strategic Thinking in Warfare Throughout World History

By JOHNSON TIANKA

Military strategy is a set of ideas implemented by military organizations to pursue desired strategic goals.Derived from the Greek word strategos, the term strategy, when it appeared in use during the 18th century, was seen in its narrow sense as the "art of the general", or "'the art of arrangement" of troops. Military strategy deals with the planning and conduct of campaigns, the movement and disposition of forces, and the deception of the enemy.
Strategy differs from tactics, in that strategy refers to the employment of all of a nation's military capabilities through high level and long term planning, development and procurement to guarantee security or victory. Tactics is the military science employed to secure objectives defined as part of the military strategy; especially the methods whereby men, equipment, aircraft, ships and weapons are employed and directed against an enemy. Strategy focus on how to win a war through a series of battles and campaigns, tactics focus on how to use the available means to win the battlefield.
