Subject: How many FWs and where?

We are building a private network connecting several dozen sites (and 
several thousand users) located around the world.  We would like to provide 
Internet access for all sites by operating some number of firewalls, 
installed at appropriate points in the network.  We're trying to estimate 
the number of firewalls needed and the right places to put them.  Can anyone 
offer some help in how to go about this?  For example, what factors would 
influence the number and location of firewalls?  Can someone refer us to 
existing organizations that have implemented similar systems?  Thanks.
