Answer:

A militia is an army created by non-professional soldiers who are citizens of a nation or a particular state. Usually, they have permission to act only in the State from which they are from.

Step-by-step explanation:

The militias are used as an aid to support the professional armies in some cases or involve in defensive maneuvers. If they engage in combat with a regular army they will likely be defeated in a short time.

I hope this answer helps you.
