The instances of <code>COLTYPE</code> are all "the same sort" of subcollection of <code>COL</code>. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rhz6DbnSwEdaAAACgyZzFrg" class="cyc_term">MovieTypeByGenre</a> facets <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv973YpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Movie_CW</a> according to movie-genre; the former's instances thus include such collections as <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv0pzgpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">WesternMovie</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwFmUH5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">HorrorMovie</a>.

Note that generic faceting does not entail that the instances of <code>COLTYPE</code> are mutually disjoint.

ModernMilitaryOrganization Organization organization The collection of all organizations. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a> is a group whose group-members are instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVinb5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntelligentAgent</a>. In each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a>, certain relationships and obligations exist between the members of the organization, or between the organization and its members. Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a> include both informal and legally constituted organizations. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a> can undertake projects, enter into agreements, own property, and do other tasks characteristic of agents; consequently, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a> is a specialization of the collection <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViAB5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Agent_PartiallyTangible</a>. Notable specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a> include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViKppwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">LegalGovernmentOrganization</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViS05wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CommercialOrganization</a>, and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjl2pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">GeopoliticalEntity</a>. facets - strict facets-Strict A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVkGXJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TaxonomicSlotForCollections</a> and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rRA9CIljCEdiRSAACs2IMlQ" class="cyc_term">facets_NearStrict</a> (q.v.). (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcZ1FpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Strict</a> COL COLTYPE) means that COLTYPE corresponds to one way of dividing COL up into disjoint subcollections. Specifically, the instances of COLTYPE are all the same sort of subcollection of COL and are, moreover, all disjoint with (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViA45wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">disjointWith</a>) each other. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rGwcsMFkIQdiMCLmJUEZ9IQ" class="cyc_term">DogTypeByBreed</a> strictly facets <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a>, because the breeds of dog constitute mutually disjoint subcollections of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a>. Other possible ways of strictly faceting <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjaoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Dog</a> are by sex, by size, and by whether or not they are domesticated. Note that (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcZ1FpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Strict</a> COL COLTYPE) does _not_ imply (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVYJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">covering</a> COL COLTYPE), since the instances of COLTYPE might not cover all of COL. For example, some dogs belong to no breed. Cf. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rv86JWpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Covering</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwA9k15wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">facets_Partition</a>. Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcxhJpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryUnitSpecialtyType</a> is a collection of collections. Its instances are subsets of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjxrpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ModernMilitaryOrganization</a> grouped by military specialization. This work is based on Peterson and Andersen (1997).

Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4roClzfvSSEdmAAAACs0uFOQ" class="cyc_term">MilitaryOrganizationConcept</a> are collections and relations having to do with military organizations. Specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjx75wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryOrganization</a>, and relations used for describing the structure, size, capabilites, equipment, commanders, etc., of various types of military units are instances of this collection. MilitaryOrganizationConcept MilitaryOrganization A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVT5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organization</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjx75wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryOrganization</a> is an organization whose function (and expertise) is the use of armed force, or the threat of such use, against enemies, especially other organized, armed enemies. A military organization includes its fighting forces and their command structure, together with dedicated support services controlled by that military command. Typically, there are special conditions in the relationships between a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjx75wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryOrganization</a> and its workers, going beyond what is expected in work agreements in civilian settings, including strict sanctions to enforce obedience. This collection includes <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvV81VZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">GovernmentMilitaryOrganization</a>s such as the armies, navies, and air forces of the world's governments, and in addition private armies, rebel armies, and organized mercenary units. military organization MilitaryOrgTypeByGeoAndBOS This type-level collection forms an important partition on <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjxrpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ModernMilitaryOrganization</a>.

In military parlance, there is a tendency to describe units by their size, relative to the typical sizes of echelons. So a unit (of any echelon) might or might not be "battalion-sized," "brigade-sized," and so on. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rUFmTsgDlQdiKAa_MTl-xzg" class="cyc_term">MilitaryUnitTypeByEchelonSize</a> is a collection of instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjxrpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ModernMilitaryOrganization</a> that all share a common size, typical of some particular echelon (c.f. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwPlCtpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MilitaryUnitTypeByEchelon</a>).
