China

We have all seen the video footage of the lines and lines of soldiers parading, and that is the key to China s incredibly military power: in fact, some have even called the Chinese army the strongest military in the world. Why? The answer is simple. It is a numbers game. You have to remember that China is the most populous country on the entire planet. That means that they have far more people at their disposal to join the army. In a study of the strongest armies in the world that was published in July 2014, it was revealed that China has the largest manpower of any army almost seven hundred and fifty million people, six hundred million of them are fit for service (They only use 2,000,0000+ of all this manpower on their front line). Try to imagine that many people in one room, and you will probably get a very intense headache! That is a number bigger than most countries entire population! It does not take a genius to realise that their global firepower impact is therefore huge. All you would have to do is give each and every member of that army a rifle, and they could take down most neighbouring countries . . . which is probably why China s neighbours always try to remain on good terms with them!
