The German Army (1871–1919), officially referred to as the Imperial German Army (German: Deutsches Heer), was the unified ground and air force of the German Empire. It was established in 1871 with the political unification of Germany under the leadership of Prussia, and was dissolved in 1919, after the defeat of the German Empire in World War I (1914–1918). In the Federal Republic of Germany, the term Deutsches Heer identifies the German Army, the land component of the Bundeswehr.

The Armed Forces Staff, in the meaning of General staff, of the German Bundeswehr (German: Führungsstab der Streitkräfte - Fü S; literal: Command staff of the armed forces) was the central department of the Federal Ministry of Defence (MOD) in direct subordination to the Inspector General of the Bundeswehr (en: Chief of Staff of the Federal Armed Forces) and one of the five staff headquarters in the military command of the German Bundeswehr. The Armed Forces Staff was thus at the same time a supreme military command authority and the top level ministerial staff organisation, authorised, mandated and competent to overall military defence planning, basics and concepts of military policy, planning of operational command and control, as well as to plans a policy of personnel education and training. In 2012, there existed supreme military command authorities in the MOD as follows: Armed Forces Staff (Führungsstab der Streitkräfte – Fü S; General Staff of the Armed Forces) Army Staff (Führungsstab des Heeres – Fü H; Army General Staff) Air Force Staff (Führungsstab der Luftwaffe – Fü L; Air Force General Staff) Navy Staff (Führungsstab der Marine – Fü M) Medical Staff (Führungsstab des Sanitätsdienstes – Fü San; Medical Service Staff)Parts of these top-level staff authorities were merged in order to establish the new high command authorities of the German Bundeswehr as follow: Army Command (Kommando Heer – Kdo Heer) Air Force Command (Kommando Luftwaffe – Kdo Luftwaffe) Navy Command (Kommando Marine – Kdo Marine)In line to the new Bundeswehr command structure, the remaining staff elements were used on the MOD level to form: a Planning Division an Armed Forces Command and Control Division and a Strategy and Operations Division.

The Army Staff, in the meaning of the Army general staff, of the German Army (German: Führungsstab des Heeres - Fü H) was a department of the Federal Ministry of Defence and one of the five staff headquarters in the military command of the Bundeswehr. The Army Staff was thus at the same time a ministerial division and the highest level of military command within the German Army. It was merged with the other high command authorities of the German Army to form the Army Command (Kommando Heer) in 2012. In 2012, there existed in MOD Germany supreme military command authority as follows: Armed Forces Staff (Führungsstab der Streitkräfte – Fü S; General Staff of the Armed Forces) Army Staff (Führungsstab des Heeres – Fü H; Army General Staff) Air Force Staff (Führungsstab der Luftwaffe – Fü L; Air Force General Staff) Navy Staff (Führungsstab der Marine – Fü M) Medical Staff (Führungsstab des Sanitätsdienstes – Fü San; Medical Service Staff)
