A square division is a designation given to the way military divisions are organized. In a square organization, the division s main body is composed of four regimental elements. Since a regiment could be split into separate battalion s for tactical purposes, the natural division within a division would be to have two regiments bound together as a brigade . On an organizational chart and if the entire division were formed up in the field, the two brigades of two regiments would typically form a square, hence the name. Most European divisions were organized as square divisions prior to World War I . They were generally reorganized as triangular division s during that war. A triangular division generally had its infantry organized into three regiments, either directly controlled by the division headquarters or under a single brigade command. See, for example, the organizational changes of the German Army German Empire Imperial German Army s 1st Division German Empire 1st Division . Triangular divisions were smaller, allowing for more divisions to be formed, and were considered more suited for the positional warfare which characterized World War I. A square division typically advanced with two brigades in line or with the brigades echeloned one ahead of the other , with one regiment forward and one in reserve ready to engage when the first regiment came into contact with the enemy. In positional warfare, the regiments were formed in line to cover as much of a sector as possible, and typically formed their own reserves, with 1 2 battalions forward and the rest in reserve. During World War I, the United States Army formed its divisions as square divisions, in contrast to the prevailing ...
