Hundertschaft (German: [ˈhʊndɐtʃaft] ⓘ, centuria, group of a hundred) is a German term to denote a military or police group of around one hundred members.
[1] Historically the Germanic tribes created fighting groups of 100 men.
This term is not used in the modern German military (although it is roughly the size of a company, which is a bit larger).
