Photo essay—the largest army in the world
Algeria: 511 000 Algeria is one of those countries that have the lowest GDP per capita in 5,583$ per person (54,609$ per capita). Algeria has greatly increased its armed forces as their number amounted to only 147,000 not so long ago. The Algerian people's national army made up of the country's army, Navy, air force and territorial air defense forces. The reason for this growth in the army became rebel groups and differences on the borders.
Iran: 583 000 Armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran consist of the army, Navy, air force, air defense forces and the army of the Guardians of the Islamic revolution (IRGC, also known as the Revolutionary Guard). The numbers for Iran, perhaps now will be more, as new team was introduced in 2013, but the country did not publish after that detailed lists of its military power (Iran suspected of developing nuclear weapons, which will affect the openness of information for the army).
Egypt: 606,500 Strength of the Egyptian Armed forces fluctuate depending on the source, and the current volatile state of the country. The size of the army varied from 468,500 to more than 600,000. Branch of the armed forces of Egypt — the army, Navy, air force and air defenses. One only the Egyptian army has approximately 468,500 soldiers, therefore, Egypt has the largest armed forces in Africa and the middle East (Israeli defense forces has only 176,500 in comparison).
South Korea: 639,000
The armed forces of the Republic of Korea consists of army, naval and air forces. Being backed up by a huge reserve force of 2.9 million reservists, South Korea able to join any armed conflict. In South Korea, this is because the constant threatening rhetoric of the head of the neighboring state of North Korea poses a significant threat to which you must be well prepared. Military service in South Korea is required.
Pakistan: 646,000 Army, Navy, air force and border guards — the branch of the Pakistani Armed forces. The number 646,000 could be greatly increased staff in various segments of the border force, but because many of them are not considered to be paramilitary, they were not included. London international Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) suggests that one only the Pakistani army can be up to 725,000 active personnel. However, there are no details to confirm this number. Pakistan is a very poor country; GDP per capita — a total of$ 1,295, thus, the huge armed forces often rely on poorly paid volunteers.
Russia: military 766,055 Like many countries in this list, a number of departments and semi-official military forces in the country create difficulties in counting the total number of the armed forces. Although it was announced more than a million military, most likely the exact number is slightly smaller due to problems the less set in a huge country. The Armed forces of the Russian Federation has many branches: the Russian Ground forces, Russian air force, Russian Navy, Strategic Missile and space forces, Russian forces aerospace defense and airborne troops. On top of that Russia has always been famous for their powerful weapons.
North Korea: 1,120,000
The total number of the Korean people's army (kPa) is unlikely to be deemed 100 percent accurate because of the total secrecy of this country. She formed the Ground forces of the Korean people's army Korean people's Navy Korean people's air force, Strategic rocket Forces and North Korean special operations. According to various estimates, the only ground troops there are 950,000 of the military, and this means that the total number could be much higher.
India: 1,325,450 Indian Armed forces include the army, Navy, air force and coast guard. It really is a force to be reckoned with, which is an indicator of how India is fighting for global recognition and influence on world politics. With the supply of weapons coming from Russia, USA, France and Israel, the Indian Armed forces quickly moderniziriruyutsya and expand. In the past, the army was hampered by old equipment and lack of weapons, but now a giant defense budget of India is $46.1 billion — an incredible amount given that GDP per capita — a total of 1,389$. The country devotes a lot of resources on the development of its armed forces to the level of the world superpowers.
USA: 1,369,532 In second place in the list of countries with the largest military are the Armed forces of the United States, including the army, Navy, air force, coast guard and marine corps. A recent report of the Ministry of defence mentioned the number in 1,369,532, although conflicting numbers say about 1.44 million. Anyway, it is the second largest armed forces in the world, managed by the country with the third largest population. American Armed forces personnel are well trained and well equipped, but it is their country status (costs for 2013 is estimated at $682 billion). This may seem a huge amount, but U.S. has a huge GDP to cover the costs. In fact, they spend a smaller percentage of GDP on its military than Saudi Arabia, Israel, or Algeria.
China: 2,285,000 It is not surprising that the people's Liberation army of China is the head of this list. The PLA includes ground forces, Navy, air force and Corps Artillery. According to some estimates, the total military strength of China is 2.44 million. A large part of this number is composed of the Ground forces of the PLA with 1.7 million active soldiers helping to guard the border, preventing hostile threats and reminding the world that the Chinese people's Republic is not a toothless tiger. The size of the army can also be backed by nuclear forces of the country and the most powerful nuclear missiles You can read in a separate article.
