• Source: List of British Commonwealth divisions in the Second World War

      • This is a list of army divisions serving within the British Empire during the Second World War. Military formations within the British Empire were generally not static and were composed of a changing mix of units from across Britain, its colonies and the dominions. As a result military formations within the Empire and Commonwealth are not easily attributable to specific Imperial or national entities and naming conventions do not necessarily correlate with modern country names.

      "formed from" indicates that a new division was created in part from another division
      "formerly" indicates a simple division name change
