Etymology

The term 'soldiering' originates from the Old French 'soudier', which means 'to serve as a soldier'. This term derived from the Latin noun 'solidus', referring to a Roman coin used to pay soldiers, emphasizing the monetary aspect of military service. Historically, soldiering as a profession has evolved significantly from the feudal systems of medieval Europe, where knights served their lords in exchange for land or titles, to modern standing armies. This transition was influenced by various social, political, and technological changes, especially during the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, which introduced new warfare tactics and professionalization within military ranks. The concept of soldiering now encapsulates not only combat roles but also peacekeeping, humanitarian missions, and various support functions within armed forces around the globe.
