Talk:Military Strength of Antarctica

6th place, Puffl'and. Really. Puffl'and. Hello, my name is Star Kirby12. Chat first, ask questions later. Then let's do something! &bull;  Tobot?&bull; Some challenges?&bull; A few drafts and stuff? &bull;  23:54, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Should Amataria be on this list? It's army are robots... -- 00:12, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, Puffle'and. It has a powerful military and it has colonies. It grew especially big during Colonial Antarctica. Plenty of Loyalists still serve it. -- User:Swiss Ninja  (My Talk Page) 02:50, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Should I add the Culldrome Isles? If so, where should I add it? It has a pretty large defence force, much larger than Glaw, Shops Island or Dorkugal. -- Chub 777 was here! (Please leave a message after the beep!) 03:15, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Calada isnt a country. -- User:Swiss Ninja  (My Talk Page) 15:07, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, it may not be... but you couldve just removed Calada and kept my edits -_- -- Pen stubal   Forever Serbian! 15:08, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Technically this page just says top militaries, not top national militaries, so if somewhere like Calada has their own military (seperate from puffle'and) then they should be on here.  Wanna Talk?   15:48, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

Snowiny Strong
Bro, you are only saying that Snowiny's not strong because "Oh Penstubal isn't good he isn't great mhm let's downgrade his military", am i right? Yes, probably am. -- Pen stubal   Happy Holidays! 21:15, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Your country doesn't need a military to be strong. You're always upgrading in a Mary-Suish style without any reasoning. I only upgraded my military after something important happened. --CanadaFlag.png Bro  Talk to me! OHYEAH.png CHRISTMAS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!  21:19, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Would it be more mary-suish if I would make USA's military protect Snowiny instead of mine, cause I think it would... Anyway, I don't see how not having protection makes you strong. -- Pen stubal  SantaPen.png Happy Holidays! 21:43, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Being economically stable is more important than having a powerful military. That's how. -- User:EDFan 12345   ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)  22:25, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Advise
According to this Rearmament Program, what place should Margate be after it was completed? From a military point of view, what do you guys think? Personally, I think that it should go up a place or two, to where Frankterre and Freezeland are. -- Slender  Talk to me   09:19, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

Chinstrap
A small city state like Chinstrap is not bigger than Dorkugal. Sorry.  Wanna Talk?   03:14, 12 June 2015 (UTC)


 * I think it could be. Singapore's military is probably larger than that of most African countries. --CanadaFlag.png Bro  Talk to me! OHYEAH.png 03:15, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

Well, that's because Military Service is required for all male citizens in Singapore. (I know that because a friend of mine left Singapore left for that reason.) That would mean Chinstrap would need to apply compulsory military service as well.

 * Chinstrap isn't a parody of Singapore, or shouldn't be. As stated before, we have too many parodies of Singapore already. Chinstrap should be original. CKSig.png  Wanna Talk?   18:37, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

TAR boost
I think that Chinstrap's TAR should be moved to "decent", since our technology is pretty good. Check the page.

Okay. -- Brant  ( talk ) 00:37, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

To be honest, I don't see how the UP, Tropicalis and Zhou are more technologically advanced (have a higher T.A.R. than Snowzerland (who's supposed to be one of the most advanced in Antarctica; except the Axles now I guess). Culldrome I understand because of Porcyals. Also, I don't think that Liguria belongs below Acadia, Lys, and even Amataria on the list in general. The only bad thing I could imagine from Liguria would be that they're a bit unorganized.  Wanna Talk?    05:48, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

The ranking of Caseusopolis is perfect. Don't change it. I'm not being sarcastic. --Mr Cow2 (talk) 03:53, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

I think this list needs to be examined and updated. A part of that brings up two questions/suggestions. I know pen added the Western Union, but should multi-national organizations be allowed in general? If so, should it be just a combination of all the member state's militaries, just the body's separate military forces (i.e. UN Peacekeeping forces), or a mixture of both? Also, I think it might help if the TAR ratings had some sort of guideline or examples. 14 nations have under "Decent" TAR rating, which I imagine is just carrying sticks due to the low number and description under decent/respectable, and I have no idea where one would put their country between "basic" and "modern".   C  K   Sysop  00:06, 15 November 2017 (UTC)


 * The difference is, Western Union is a very well integrated organization that is very, very closely cooperative on military affairs and is also constructing a single Western Union Army right now. Once the WU Army gets finished it would most likely include that separate military force of the Western Union. And I assume the TAR rating is based on what is technologically advanced for the modern age - if you're 100, you're extremely technologically advanced (much ahead of time) and if you're 1 you're pretty outdated but doesn't mean you're primitive with sticks. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 14:47, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

USA Military Size
When I added up the populations of the states of the USA, the number is about 330,500,000, and this page says the military has about 11,000,000 soldiers. I don't think it really makes sense for the United States of Antarctica to have such a large military with that population. The Eastshield page also says the state has about 1,200,000, and Eastshield is about 45% of the country's population. I did some calculations and 1,200,000 is about 45% of about 2,500,000. My math might not be correct but I think that 2.5 million is an appropriate size for the USA's military given the size. I mean, IRL USA, with around 327,000,000 people only has around 1,200,000 active members, and they're still the most powerful country in the world. What do you all think? --Brant (Talk) (Contributions) 20:36, 17 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Nine other countries have a military larger than 2.5 mil, including UnitedTerra with over 9 million; USA should still be the largest. Also, the state pages, including Eastshield, have been out of line and inaccurate from continuity and the main USA page, which is also very out of date, for a long time (hence why I started USIP a long time ago but to fix the USA and its state & related articles, but it's another one of my unfinished projects. Anyway, I digress). 1.2 million population in Eastshield is very wrong considering even Acadia has more citizens, and ignore what I struck out, thought you meant the Eastshield page said the total population is 1.2 million. Anyway, my point is I think the USA should still have the largest military, idc if it's 10 million or 50 million.   C  K   Sysop  03:50, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Evaluation for Azukri and re-evaluation for Magonia
Is someone willing to determine Azukri’s placement in the list? It currently has C5-level military technology, 550,000 active troops and 5.2 million reservists (due to a policy of conscription). However, it doesn’t have much combat experience aside from internal conflicts. Meanwhile, I am also seeking to evaluate whether or not Magonia’s TAR can be raised to C6 (thanks to local development of relatively high-tech armamemtns). It currently has 470,000 active troops and 690,000 reservist troops. As with the case with Azukri, it doesn’t have much combat experience (except for the Epic Zenthexian-Terrain War, when the country was invaded by Zenthexia). -- SlenderXP  Talk to me   00:25, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
