Military marches are a series of combat songs written in an even measure and energetic, solid rhythm. The melody is accentuated to create a harmonious rhythm with a step and thus harmonizes the step of the whole unit. The essence and content of military marchers are determined by the historical conditions of individual epochs, by the character of the military, by the progress or backwardness of their tasks, as well as by the national characteristics and musical culture of the nation.
