This table represents the theoretical structure of a typical German Army Corps upon mobilization, 2 August 1914.

At that time, the Germans had formed 47 regular, reserve, and cavalry corps. Eight more reserve corps and two cavalry corps were added by the end of August, followed by four more reserve corps standing up in late December.
