Largest Armies In The World (1816-2023)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 фев 2023
- Join us as we explore the evolution of military power through history and discover the largest armies in the world based on active military personnel from 1816 to 2023. Using data from the Correlates of War project and World Population Review, we'll take a closer look at the factors that influence a country's military strength and examine how they've changed over time. From the powerful empires of the 19th century to the modern military superpowers of today, this video is a must-see for anyone interested in world history and military affairs
I don't see anybody talking about it, but I just wanna point out how wild the Bulgarian numbers are in 1912, you can see Bulgaria briefly jump to the 3rd spot in the world because of the 1st balkan war, when about 600k soldiers were raised. Now that doesn't sound too staggering until you realize that the entire population of the country at the time was about 4.3 mil. So in % that's about 13% of the population going to war, lol. To put that into nowadays perspective, Ukraine has a population of over 43 million with active personnel of about 700k. Then during WW1 Bulgaria raised about 800k soldiers as well. x)
I like how at 2:08 the Qing Dynasty literally says "excuse me, pardon" and blast all the way to the top.
I think it was because he couldn't find the Qing Data before that time point, so Qing wasn't on the list at all until that moment
United States and Russia: Hold up, I'm supposed to be there!

Incredible that in WWII that Australia with only 7.5M people had for a time, the sixth largest armed forces. No wonder they handed out the first defeats on land to Vichy France, Italy, Germany and Japan.

As a Turk, I can say that my country is in the middle of the world and wars. Even if we don't want war, war wants us. And as one of the nations that established the most states in history, we know how to defend ourselves well. We don't want war, but we are not afraid of war.
Turkey doesn’t want war lol good joke. There’s a reason almost all of Turkey’s neighbors hate them
Seems you have seen kgf , seeking your dialog in b/w 😂
I think he's scared but honest at the same time in a honorable style my friends.
@@TheAnonymousKnightOfJusticeNo my friend, we have no reason to fear. We are a nation that lives for our honor. And even though we know we will perish, we are always ready to fight for our honor.

Besides the amount of people in the armies, we didn’t expect and don’t want any wars occurring
Puts things into perspective, Turkey is always seen as the wayward member of NATO but the thing is they can afford to be a bit more independent when it comes to defense policy because of their established military culture, their huge army (relatively) and their geopolitical importance. They never once fell off the list.
Nations that do not feed their armies are forced to feed the army of their invaders.
Thank you bro I'm a proud turkish person
As a Turkish person, thank you so much for your good comment. And yes we have to be a powerful because we are living in the dangerous geography.We are the only asian country member of nato.

For a country that has always been relatively free of conflicts, Brazil has always had a sizeable military force.
That makes sense, they have a huge territory to defend
The military was pretty big in Brazil for a while. Sort of the culture.
Brazil mentioned 🗣️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
The Republican Coup that took place in 1889 in Brazil took the country off the path to becoming a major world power. It is no surprise that after the imperial period, Brazil never recovered, remaining just a large territory and economy, without major social and technological advances, also because of successive populist governments, notably those on the left from the 1980s onwards. Brazil has everything it takes to be the greatest world power, this is just being postponed.
This video is awesome but you just missed 1 things which is Spanish civil war (not pretty far from WW2) anyways really interesting video and proud of being Spanish 🇪🇦

Probably, some countries also count their Navy as part of their Army. The PRC’s army is the PLA and it’s NAVY is called the PLA Navy.

The amazing thing about this clip is, that at no time, not once during it did the UK ever get close to been the top national army. But basically for two thirds to three quarters of this entire time frame, 1815 to 2023 it was the most powerful hegemony on the planet. Easily and often destroying those armies listed at or near the top, Russian Empire 1855 and Qing Empire 1865 for example. They basically smashed any army that opposed them for a century and half, no fuss, no matter how big they were. They would often take on a whole nation with a tiny force and do the business, the punitive expedition to Abyssinia by Lord Napier who defeated Emperor Theodore is a good example. A small force of fifteen thousand, marched overland through tropical country and full of hostile tribes. Smashed the Emperors mountain top fortress strong hole of Magdala, freed the hostages and then marched back out again with the loss of very few men, all the time against overwhelming numbers.
They had the largest navy but not army.
@@WatchmansArchive That is the point I was trying to make, it was not the largest army by any means, but it was certainly the most powerful army for most of that time. As they say its not who has the most, its who can get there with the most, and the best that wins.
And yet we Americans kicked their behinds
@@dolphingoreeaccount7395we had an empire to build in Africa and india plus we had the french to fight. Defeating A few insurgent colonists wasn't at the top of the list lol.
@@dolphingoreeaccount7395 You mean you Americas like to think you kicked their behinds, the War of Independence was a side show for Britain and they were busy with real enemies at the time, plus there was also a lot of sympathy for the colonists in the British parliament at the time. The War of independence was also much earlier than the stated dates of 1815 to 2023 in this video. Now the war of 1812 is closer to the date discussed, and in 1812 the British Army marched to Washington and burnt out the White House, so it had to be painted white to hide the scorch marks and its still white to this day, that while they were also busy flogging Napolean as well. The bottom line is at anytime from 1760 until 1900 Britain could have if they really wanted to could have dealt the USA a death blow, but they were never of a mind to. Even in the American Civil War if Britain had supported the South, well goodnight Irene to United States of America, the fact that the south were slave states ensured that support was never forthcoming. I have read that Palmerston would have recognised the South if they had won Gettysburg, if he had then the South would have been independent till this day no doubt.
this shows how important the navy was to britain. they were able to dominate the world for a good 60% of this video without ever needing to be #1 army
Just to end up drinking and vomiting all over the countries they go, impressive
@@juanlualicante better than the french who bring their baguette stench everywhere or the americans who are too loud for their own good
Good point Hi from India
Brittania ruled the seas baby
A very relative domination (except on the seas), in Europe the political power of Britain was far from unchecked.
I think that historically, USA in their heydays dominated the world far more completely, at least until the 2010s with the rise of China.

There's almost atleast 1 gun per household in America, we're basically 1 massive army lol

@@Paul-ft9dn da
There is more than that per person.
465 million documented firearms in the US.
Compared to only 336 million citizens.
And that 465 million is probably way higher due to non registered guns.
So in the US there more guns than people.

I didn’t even know that Prussia exists 😂
It does not exist anymore. It became part of the German Empire in 1870. After WW2 most of its former land was given to Poland. What is left of former Prussia today is Berlin, Pommern and Brandenburg. But nobody call them Prussians anymore.

I despise weapons and wars
At its peak strength in WWII, the USA commanded the largest army it ever will at 12 million soldiers.
Absolutely insane…
16 million to be exact.
Had Germany never started the war on the eastern front they could've gone to over 25 million and in total in real life the germans had 17 million soldiers mostly bc Germany had constant huge losses bc off huge wars on multiple fronts so its kinda impressive how they managed to get to almost 8 million soldier at it's peak considering the losses on the eastern fromt at that point
But according to time period's population Muryan army was bigger
The British army at it's peak during WW2 had 4 million troops i find that impressive for a small island.

Size does not matter. What matters is advancements and technology. The strength of a military. In that regard the U.S wins.
the United States wins only in the fact that it enters the war when it is already clear who won and it is necessary to help him
