A theater command (中国人民解放军战区) is a joint military command of the Central Military Commission that is composed of units from the service branches of the People's Liberation Army in its area of responsibility, and conducts broad and continuing missions. There are 5 theater commands: Eastern, Southern, Western, Northern, and Central theater commands, organized by a geographical basis. They are responsible for developing strategy, plans, tactics, and policy specific to their assigned area of responsibility.[2] They are intended to take operational control of the multi-service units under their jurisdiction, while the branches retain administrative and "constructive" control.[3]
