Armed Forces List

Looking at Armed Forces Worldwide to identify risks of readiness for wars, appropriate Force Structure, Foreign Military Presence in Host Countries, and the holding of far-distant Colonies. Best Weapons and Military Capabilities are not enough to win a war, but if an Army has the appropriate Army Size, Force Structure, Military Strategy, and Military Tactics, along with competent Military Espionage, yet the Area Size can be a critical factor, and even Energy Security and Food Security, especially in Blockades or long wars. Bilateral Military Defence Treaties (BMDT) and Multilateral Military Defence Treaties (MMDT) with a 'Clear Commitment to Defend in the Case of an Attack' can give a Military Backup for a country, but at the same time, pose a risk of being drawn into others’ wars.

The Force Structure of an army determines which types of weapons the army should have, which affects the organisation of the army. The long-term Army Strategy should determine the Force Structure of the army.
