Drop the "inactive reserves" to the rest of a 25%. This is where you sit with at 17-35.

Would .5 billion work?

Haha, how big is my military? Non-existent. That is what the World Assembly is for. We have never been invaded nor is the possibility we will even extant. Building a military is a waste of brain synapses on NationStates. Better to invest in education and get the next Nobel Prize in quantum-bomb as extreme leverage than fund a bunch of lackeys to shoot bullets at sand bags. Am dumbfounded 40% of the sample above selected "huge" as their military size...

What is this "military" you speak of?

But Quelsh does have a military. Not a very large one, but a military. Sadly, this small military is the reason Quelsh fails pretty much any war that it engages in unless it has help from its allies. Luckily, help is given. So Quelsh wins almost every war, but has a small, pitiful military, but that might be changing soon.

Oh, I forgot! Quelsh also has this insanely godmod weapon known as the "Matrix Bomb". The exact capabilities of the weapon are unknown, but basically it is a bomb that is too powerful to really be in any one nation's hands.

Following the Great Recession Crisis in 2016, the Supreme Order of the Grand Star took power, after three of their members were elected in the 2017 Leadership Election. An economic reform, known as the "Vigorous March for National Safety", was initiated on January 29, 2017. This reform sadly changed Zhouran's capitalist economy, once prosperous, into a centralized, autarkic economy, and an estimate of about 12,560,000 or more people have died, with many deaths ranging from starvation to execution.

Millions of people signed up to join the Zhouranese People's Army, in order to feed themselves and their families, but not all were accepted. The Zhouranese People's Army currently has an estimate of about 4,856,200 active personnel, with 6,673,000 on reserve.

The National Defense Guards, a paramilitary force that is not part of the Zhouranese People's Army, has up to 8,348,000 personnel.

I've fought his forces they drop.
Quickly
When it comes to Gas and bombs bullets and grenades.
Shells and tanks.
I like the crunch the tanks make when the run over enemy forces.
Ahhh good times in the MDF

Invincible to your forces, yes, but surely that's incentive for you to avoid picking fights with late-PMT armies that enforce quality-over-quantity anyway! You fleshbound, oil-burning primates had best count yourselves lucky we don't use an armed force larger than 1,000 men when we do go to war with you pesky MTers!

... Wait a second, why didn't we think to do that before? SERGEI! READY THE CHRONOSPHERE! WE'RE GOING HUNTING!

Please stop these inaine threads. This should either be merged with the NS Infantry Dicsussion Thread or the NS Military Realism Thread. I encourage anyone reading this to move discussion of militaries to the aforementioned threads.

Military Factbook

Our Military is large for our nations size, it being around 360 000 in a nation of around 6 000 000 (6 million), meaning it makes up about 6% of the total population.

By International standards it is medium sized however.

Beyond massive.
