In what way is North Korea the largest? These are the numbers according to NationMaster.com.
Armed forces personnel (in hundred thousands)
1. China - 28.1
2. Russia - 15.2
3. United States - 13.6
4. India - 13.0
5. North Korea - 10.5
6. South Korea - 6.8
Capacity of able bodies (in millions)...
1. China - 375
2. India - 288
3. United States - 73
23. South Korea - 14
46. North Korea - 6
North Korea has pretty well maxed out its capability while other countries haven't really dipped into the pool. What do you have to support your claims of North Korea having the largest standing military in the world?
