"probs could"
no one will ever be able to really "conquer" the US
they'll have to deal with guerrillas and a resistance militia for at least another 10-20 years; if they get that far.

| Yeah, not even the powers of Russia and China combined could conquer us. We have the United Nations behind us. |

@king
Actually, you're right. My bad. However, we still have the most military spending of any country on Earth. |

@Blood
That refers to power, not pure size.
We're arguing the manpower of these militaries. |

That refers to aircraft strength. We're talking about the entire army, including the infantry and the navy.

@Blood I didn't say we didn't have the #1 military in the world. I just said that China's is bigger, which it is. I know for a fact that the US spends masses more money than any other military. But it doesn't have as many active military personnel as China. Considering the ratio of Military:Population for each though, it's amazing that we're so close.

In terms of direct power in warfare, the top 3 would easily be:
1. USA 2. Russia 3. China |

yeah china's fit for service # is 10x more than ours.
but in the korean war, the chinese would just send waves of thousands of peasant soldiers with WW2 rifles at american positions and get mowed down without a problem, with only a couple hundred americans defending.
at chosin, the marines were ambushed like that 3 times during a retreat, and still gave the chinese an ass whooping in casualty count.
BUT THOSE WERE THE '60s.. idk how china operates their military now, other than them investing in a defensive navy in recent years.
good thing is, china and the US are good allies & trading partners, so we're on good terms for now.
oh yeah mr. krabs |
