Ah, but it is. China's modern military stands at almost 2.3. I may have 300 million people fewer, but I am still a billion citizen nation.


That's will need to have a lot of funding, would it not?

If China can do it today, so can I, especially when my economy is much more developed in comparison. China is at 8.3 trillion gdp in RL, I would estimate myself at 10-14 trillion gdp.

Brief Description of your nation's History: After being largely an American Colony throughout World War I, the PH participated only in World War II and helped the Americans with their War against Japan and in Europe. After the war, the PH was given full independence, then pursued the reformation of the republic and the restoration of its pre-colonial glory. To do this however; Late Pres. Marcos, rejected the formation of the Asean or Association of South East Asian Nations but failed to do so because of a strong Japan and the several rejections from neighboring states. However even though the failure of the proposed ASEAN, the Philippines still acts as a safeguard of regional Integrity via safeguarding the International Trade Route and its firm rejection of colonialism, and also trade and give financial aids to its neighboring countries...

Brief Description of your nation's economy: After the successful campaign against insurgents; the PH now focuses itself to build and improve its infrastructure to prepare itself to become an economic powerhouse of the region. The Countries growth came after the President's succession after the former President Benigno Simion Aquino III who's economic reforms layed out the foundations needed by the present administration.
Brief Description of your nation's government: After successfully Federalizing the National Government; corruption has hit an all time low; and is not even noticeable.

I'd like some expansion on economy and government in particular. Also a bit more on history. The idea seems good and reasonable.

Only thing I feel really matters is if the city has security from both domestic and foreign forces, good infrastructure, relatively good human rights, optionally somewhat democratic, some source of importance tot he world or nation before being the location of the UN Headquarters, easily reachable, and the services to host the delegates from a wide variety of cultures and nations. Of course I feel like the perception of the nation itself and city at the time in which the headquarters was established matters too, which is why I am against it being on the land of the losing side of WWII if it was made during or soon after it ended. Similarly, however it could have possibly changed locations if things changed enough


I raise Metro Manila as the the UN HQ for Human Rights...
