That's actually really BAD

My military is about 1% of my total pop, and that means my troops are very powerful and well armed while your millions of troops are probably using clubs and knifes to fight.



I don't know, man. I'm an Imperialist nation, and enforce compulsory service for all men and childless women between 18 and 20 years of age. Plus, citizens aged 16 through 50 are seen as eligible for grunt work. (don't tell, but people with extreme mental disorders are put down, so it's not like a large percentage of this is invalid) Not to mention, the military is HIGHLY valued in our country, and it's considered a grade A career path. I'm sure I may fall within the 5-10% of my population having something to do with the military.

But I doubt I'm on a level as low as Dragomere, if I may be so arrogant.
NEW FRENCO EMPIRE

Transferring information from disorganized notes into presentable factbooks is way too time consuming for a procrastinator. Just ask if you have questions.
Plutocratic Evil Empire™ situated in a post-apocalyptic Decopunk North America. Extreme PMT, yet socially stuck in the interwar/immediate post-war era, with Jazz music and flapper culture alongside nanotechnology and Martian colonies. Tier I power of the Frencoverse.

Yes, but you have a "thriving" level of economy and plenty of government funds going to military, you can actually afford that.

While you can have whatever you want it's just why do you have so many soldiers in your military? With a budget of over one trillion which is still huge but it's nearly impossible to equip and train all your men to the perfect standard you claim to have. I have a combined military strength of 3,107,600 and with my budget of over eight trillion it is far easier to fund better technology and training for them but this is at reduced man power.

Huh, don't like compulsory military service. We have many military academies and they get loads of new recruits every year as well joining the military in my nation is a very good career choice if you don't mind getting shot at and the risk of death.
Can I ask how is your nation run? Like modern day America?

I don't see compulsory service as a bad thing if they aren't forced to continue their service. It's good for the people, is a decent recruitment scheme, and it doesn't necessarily dilute the professionalism of a military.
I do not use NS stats or any tracker. This account is a product of me attempting to constantly increase civil and political rights whilst trying to keep the economy reasonably competitive. My national factbook provides a decent overview, a more detailed version is being created.
Military info:
Budget- 6.781 trillion- Budget layout: 50 25 25
Army: 600,000 active, 500,000 reserve
Navy: 300,000 active, 250,000 reserve
Airforce 200,000 active, 100,000 reserve

That doesn't really answer the point, Drago.

Your government is currently funding that year of compulsory training for everyone, which is costly, which means you lose funding elsewhere.

My government is democratically run. 50% of the total expenditures go to the military. At age 15, all children are taught how to shoot a military grade weapon with expert precision. Only the top 10% get into the military, and only the top 5% get to be on active duty.

According to this, only 20% does, though.

So where does the 30% come from? Do you citizens approve of all that money going to the military and not to public infrastructure?

Essentially, Drago, tell me this:

What is wrong with your nation? What facet of your country is lacking in funding?

Your budget is about the same amount modern day US spends on their military and they struggle, although not that much, to keep their army of five million properly trained and equipped. Five million is that the US army's total size? Anyway, you have more than twice the amount of soldiers and that would mean many can't be given the proper equipment and training they need.
