[td]The '''Eighth Route Army''' ({{zh |s = 八路军 |t = 八路軍 |p = BālΓΉ-JΕ«n}}), also known as the '''18th Group Army''', was a [[Field army|group army]] nominally under the banner of the [[National Revolutionary Army]] (NRA) of the Republic of China, established in 1937 as part of the [[Second United Front]] against Japan. In practice, the Eighth Route Army was under the exclusive command of the [[Communist Party of China]] (CPC) and operated independently of the Kuomintang (KMT) central military command. Unlike most NRA units, which were directly overseen by the Nationalist Government, the Eighth Route Army maintained separate political and operational structures aligned with CCP objectives.[/td]

[td]The Eighth Route Army was created from the [[Chinese Red Army]] on September 22, 1937, when the Chinese Communists and Chinese Nationalists formed the [[Second United Front]] against Japan at the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War, as the Chinese theater was known in [[World War II]]. Together with the [[New Fourth Army]], the Eighth Route Army formed the main Communist fighting force during the war and was commanded by Communist party leader [[Mao Zedong]] and [[general]] [[Zhu De]]. Though officially designated the 18th Group Army by the Nationalists, the unit was referred to by the Chinese Communists and Japanese military as the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army wore Nationalist uniforms and flew the flag of the Republic of China and waged mostly guerrilla war against the Japanese, collaborationist forces and, later in the war, other Nationalist forces. The unit was renamed the [[People's Liberation Army]] in 1947, after the end of [[World War II]], as the Chinese Communists and Nationalists resumed the [[Chinese Civil War]].[/td]
