    Large Cranes usually have two arms. One for lifting the load, and the other supporting a counteweight for the load lifted

    Armies



    (I typed that and even though it makes no sense, I'm now thinking and picturing small, cutesy little, young arms on someone -- not arms but "armies.")



    UPDATE: I now think my answer does not fit your criteria -- armies are made up of living beings.

    You ar more right than you know The military, the post office, the public school system. public services. ... are arms of the government each designed to serve the US in some specific capacity.

    From Wikitionary  https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/army

    From (1386) Middle English armee, borrowed from Anglo-Norman or Old French armee (cf. modern French armée), from Medieval Latin armāta (“armed force”), a noun taken from the past participle of Latin armāre (“to arm”), itself related to arma (“tools, arms”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂er- (“to join, fit together”). Doublet of armada. Displaced native Middle English heere, here, from Old English here.
