Warriors is a general name for a warrior of a tribe or people. It can also be a practitioner of a specific martial art,
This does not necessarily have to be a primitive people, it refers more to the forms of defense/attack.
The distinction is sometimes small, but broadly comparable with the difference between a Roman legionary with a conscription of 20 years and what is clearly a soldier/military and eg a Greek Heloot who is more of a city or tribe defender.
All princes and kings in antiquity until now have had armies with commanders and officers for defense, but in our view these are more war groups than real armies.
Many warriors were only fighters and often in some kind of employment with a lord, country or city, but the first real soldiers in Europe after the Romans were the mercenaries as it emerged at the end of the Middle Ages which was a transition from loose warriors ( lan(d)sknechts) to a real army with all disciplines.
