Military/Civilian Percentages

[Seculartopia]

What is your Military/Civilian percentage? (Divide Military Personnel by Population)

Seculartopia's is .083%

[Democratic Federation]

0.7%

About 8.5 million.

[Maraque]

Before military disbandment, it was 0.0035%. They've all been absorbed into the police force.

[Reavani]

About four percent.

[Sanctus-Terra]

0.25% of the population are always ready to fight and die.

[Kejoh]

we try to keep 0.4% professional and a further 0.6% conscripts when in peacetime, but conscription will increase up to 9.6%, dependent on severity of the war. however, in a war at home, this may rise to 39.6%. however, this means lack of training is a problem.

[The Grand World Order]

Right now, something like 2% of the population is in the military.

And we're at war.

[Stoklomolvi]

People's Liberation Army of the Stoklomolvi Communist Federation

Due to the need for internal rebellion suppression in addition to a defence force, the Stoklomolvi Communist Federation has maintained around 3.4% of the population in its standing army. Its regional land power projection capabilities are unmatched, for its command structure is designed for spread warfare and dispersed forces. A massive land border and land area warrant the need for a massive military force, though the standing army figure is dwarfed by the total armed forces number. In total, the figure can soar to nearly and over 11% during peacetime due to large numbers of volunteers for the standing and reserve forces; while the figure is artificially inflated by the inclusion of the state police force [counted as paramilitary], at times the large armed forces places unnecessary strain on the economy. Training is a non-issue, as every male and female who reaches the age of 18 must participate in mandatory military and physical training for a period of up to two months before returning to normalcy. While in service, military members are constantly drilled and trained.

Truly, the economy is designed in such a manner so that it would be at maximum efficiency for war. Production management groups plan the entire economy from the bottom up, and military hardware production is of paramount importance after medical supplies.

Military:Civilian
1:20

[Jalanat]

0.7% of Jalanat is in the military

[Meciene]

1% of our 1.90 billion population is military.

[Swilatia]

0%. No explaination necessary, I hope.

[Sorgan]

Around 1% of the entire population is in the armed forces. Considering we are a devolving country we aren't armed very well so our 1% would be the equivalent of a regular nations 0.5%

[Fantasaia]

0.15% percent of our population as a whole are in the military.

[Fatatatutti]

Since many nations seem to just make up numbers off the top of their heads, a little explanation is in order. Fatatatutti has a population of 7 billion. In a dire emergency - i.e. an invasion of Fatatatutti - we believe that we could field an army of 1000 divisions. We recognize that some of those divisions would not be at optimum strength or efficiency.

That amounts to much less than 1% of the population and, of course, it is much lower in peacetime. We scoff at the ludicrously high figures claimed by some nations. Their militaries must be appallingly inefficient.

-- Gen. Castro-Stalina, Fatatatutti Foreign Legion (FFL)

[Machina Haruspex]

Our nations military size is at 1.5% of the total population.

[Ismon]

we try to keep 0.4% professional and a further 0.6% conscripts when in peacetime, but conscription will increase up to 9.6%, dependent on severity of the war. however, in a war at home, this may rise to 39.6%. however, this means lack of training is a problem.

It is very unlikely for a country to be able to mobilise more than 20% of its poplulation in war.

[Das ganze Europa]

Peacetime: 0.00843%
War Start: 0.021%
Full Mobilisation: 0.0843%

[Cosmera]

Mandatory Military Schooling begins at age 5 and professional training starts at age 11 with full induction in the Cosmera Armed Forces by age 17

[Kejoh]

in a defensive war, you need everyone you can get. thats what i meant by a war at home.

[Finland6]

100 % all civilians are forced to serve

[East Molovsky]

In the peacetime the glorious peoples liberation front is made up of approximately 700,000 with reserves deployed. Military training begins at 13 and are no longer fit for service at the front surpassing 45 excluding our greatest officers & members of the commissariat. also mandatory military service for at least 5 years by all ensure stability.

in a defensive war, you need everyone you can get. thats what i meant by a war at home.

Just because you need everyone doesn't mean you can get them. Most people cannot fight, or will not, and would sooner surrender. In fact, most of your people will flee in terror and seek refugee status in neighboring countries and as your enemies gain ground, in the conquered territory.

Others will simply sit around and hope for the best. Hide in basements, in the woods, whatever possible to stay out of the way. They won't grab a gun and go at the enemy tooth and nail, no matter what half of NS seems to expect out of their populations.

[Takaram]

Takaram maintains about 1% of the population in peacetime, but can draft up to 2%.

A) these nations are hypothetical, not real life, so i can say my people will do whatever i choose.
B) i didnt ever say thats grabbing a gun and going to the front line. anything in the military. supplies, driving, even manufacturing. all necessary in a war for defence
