Such colonies may lie overseas or in areas dominated by neighboringland powers such as China or Russia. Colonial troops have been used by Imperial powers whether ancient (such as CarthageandRome), or modern (such as Great Britain, France, Netherlands, Denmark, the United States, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Portugal). Sometimes they have been recruited under local leaders, asauxiliaries, at other times directly under pay and officers from the colonial power. They must in turn be seen as part of larger systems of power projection, which may also contain chains of overseas bases and refueling stations, ships, aircraft, alliance systems and fiscal strength.
