Stratarches
''Stratarches'' ((ギリシア語:στρατάρχης), pl. στρατάρχαι (archaic) or στρατάρχες (modern)), means ''ruler of the army'' in Greek, and is a title associated with successful generals. In modern Greek usage, it corresponds to the rank of Field Marshal.
== Byzantine Empire ==
The term originated in the Byzantine Empire, where, in the 9th to 11th centuries, the ''stratarchai'' were a class of senior officials in charge of military finances and administration, including the ''hetaireiarches'' (commander of the mercenary guards), the ''droungarios'' of the Imperial Fleet, the ''logothetes ton agelon'' who supervised the army's horse-breeding farms, the ''komēs tou staulou'' (Count of the Stable) and the ''protospatharios'' of the ''basilikoi anthropoi''. By the late 11th century, this technical meaning was forgotten, and the term ''stratarches'', along with variants such as ''megas stratarches'' and ''panstratarches'', came to be used as an honorific epithet for important generals. In this use it is for instance used to describe the famed literary hero Digenis Akritas, or famous past commanders, such as Belisarius.〔
