I have played Nationstates for months (although my current nation is small) and I have seen many posts about how much so and so's nations income is and things like that. I want to know how to figure out each specific so that when I do RP's i am sure that I am not godmodding. I would apriciate someone explaining the figures soon. Thanks

change the bold to the % of your budget you spend on military, and there you go. I've also made a calc that will tell you exactly how much you spend on-

Thank you, but I have a question. Does this sound right for a nation with 148 million people and a thriving economy? I dont think so but I could be wrong:

Population: 148,000,000
Civil Rights:
Economy:
GDP per Capita: $0
GDP: $0
National Budget: $-122,693
Warning: Division by zero in /home/pipianc/public_html/stuffforchat/gdpcalc.php on line 55


Percentage of GDP Spent on Defense: 0%
Percentage of Budget Spent on Defense: 1%
Military Budget: $-1,227

Enough for:
-1 F-15Es, or...
-1 Su-34s, or...
-1 F-16s, or...
-1 MiG 29s, or...
-1 M1A2 Abrams, or...
