First Modern Standing Army in Europe?

The first paragraph introduces the Janissaries as "the first modern standing army in Europe", as in, a professional and organized military structure (see link to standing army). This sounds like a subjective assessment since the first such standing army would have been the Ancient Roman army, which was European, organized and constituted of professional soldiers, most of which enrolled voluntarily, I believe.

I wouldn't call Ancient Rome a MODERN standing army. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:1970:5163:1200:0:0:0:FBA4 (talk) 02:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Some do not differentiate between military and army. Yes, the Janissary army has its own name — Janissary Corps. There are a few willing to merge the concepts. Станислав Минков (talk) 10:34, 5 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
