71st in region, and 72,386th in the world :oops:

What can I say, I was always more interested in space exploration than military defence, I was always hoping that if I don't get anyone mad, they won't Bomb me, and hey! its worked so far.

Great Boogie is ranked 12th in the region and 5,499th in the world for Largest Defense Forces (per capita).

We have had several wars over the past few years, mostly land capturing, we used to go for the other option of Peace, but when my people began to get Slaughtered as they worked in the Fields and their children played down by the brook, on our own lands, we thought enough was enough. We have fought against Orcs, and the Undead over the past few years, Captured many key pieces of land, and made Great, longlasting alliances with respectable Human and elven Nations. And the battles, Which, have been over for some months now, the peace has kept. But we will never forget...

...

I used to be in the top 50, then I fell down into the tens of thousands (even though I always chose the options that made the military bigger), and I'm back in the top 3,000 now that I've been cutting down on military spending?!?! This game makes no sense...

Gotta admit...this one kinda surprises me.

In saying that, I came pretty high in the police ratios list last time and I've never (knowingly) given a pro-police response in the 9 months I've been playing this.

And that a powerful military used to be a very unpopular idea, then very popular, then unpopular again?
