sentences:  The first policing organization with the name "Carabiniers" was the Corps of Carabiniers, in Spanish "Cuerpo de Carabineros" (with similar meaning as the Italian "Carabinieri"), formed in 1903 to bring law and order to the conflictive Araucanía region of Southern Chile (then much larger than today's region), formerly the Gendarme Corps, which would later be merged with the Army's 5th Carabiniers Regiment and the Rural Police.The Carabinier Regiment was then a Chilean Army unit, thus the reason why the Carabiniers of today sport military ranks and insignia.In 1908 the Carabiniers' School ("Escuela de Carabineros", currently located in Providencia) was created, which until 1935 trained all officers and non-commissioned sworn personnel.
