Provincial troops were military units raised by colonial governors and legislatures in British North America for extended operations during the French and Indian Wars. The provincial troops differed from the militia, in that they were a full-time military organization conducting extended operations. They differed from the regular British Army in that they were recruited only for one campaign season at the time. These forces were often recruited through a quota system applied to the militia. Officers were appointed by the provincial governments. During the eighteenth century militia service was increasingly seen as a prerogative of the social and economic well-established, while provincial troops came to be recruited from different and less deep-rooted members of the community.

  • جند الحكام الاستعماريون والهيئات التشريعية القوات الإقليمية على القيام بعمليات ظويلة الأمد خلال الحروب الفرنسية والهندية. اختلفت القوات الإقليمية عن الميليشيات، من حيث أنها كانت منظمة عسكرية بدوام كامل تنفذ عمليات ممتدة عبر الزمن، كما اختلفوا عن الجيش البريطاني النظامي، إذ كانوا يُجندون لموسم حملة واحد فقط في ذلك الوقت. جندت هذه القوات في كثير من الأحيان من خلال نظام الحصص المطبق على الميليشيات. عيّنت حكومات المقاطعات الضباط. خلال القرن الثامن عشر، كان يُنظر إلى خدمة الميليشيات بشكل متزايد على أنها امتياز اجتماعي واقتصادي راسخ، بينما جنّدت القوات الإقليمية من أعضاء مختلفين وأقل تجذرًا في المجتمع.
