Well I had to finish the paper in a hurry : and I received some really
excellent infos Thanx Capt. O‘Leary
unfortunately, Word will NEVER NEVER again correct my paper The damn thing
changed words for french words and vice versa
, right now the paper is
on review because the teacher considered the TA score to be very low, compared
to the rest of my work :.
Anyway, I can give you a brief insight.
Paper for Comparative Politics
Number are just approximation I received the latest on The Canadian Forces a
day too late
My theory was that Canada and Australia has a similar history British Empire,
each in an important hemisphere for the British empire...... But Australia has
more aggressive military policies, has a bigger force per capita and
spend more money on the military compared to us country - similar
My theory was that Aussies are more aggressive and spend more money because of
their Isolation has an island
and the lack of real powerful allied. The Kiwis can be near but :.
Also the instability of the area with Indonesia, the Philippines and new
threats, changed the Aussie Military policies to a more aggressive one, and
increased their military spending for the protection of their interest in
Oceania.
Australia has 7 686 850 km2, a population of 19 169 850 peoples, his military
expenditure for the year 98/99 was 6.9 Billions US dollars meaning 1.9 of the
GDP.3 His military strength including the three branches of the military Army,
Navy and Air force plus the civil employees constituted a force of 94 641 in
the year 2000.
5 percent of the population work directly for the Department of Defense. The
Australian government spend an average of 364 US$ per citizen on the military.
1999-200
Australia
Personnel Regular:
Army: 24 072 Navy: 12 901 Air Force: 14 045
Total regular forces: 51 618
Personnel Reserve:
Army: 23 455 Navy: 1 803 Air Force: 2 042
Total Reserve: 27 300
Total Civilian: 16 323
Complete Total: 94 641
Compared to in 1973,where the strength of the
Navy: 16 195, Army: 31 466 Air Force 21 469, total force strength: 69 130
1.9 of the GNP, and 1.9 Billions dollar. In 25 years a decrease of 23 was
effectuated under the Australian military.
Of the constituted a force of 94 641 in the year 2000.
5 percent of the population work directly for the Department of Defense. The
Australian government spend an average of 364 US$ per citizen on the military
GNP, and 1.9 Billions dollar. In 25 years a decrease of 23 was effectuated
under the Australian military. Australian military decreased by 25 in 25 years
compared to us
that decreased of that same number in only 10 years.
Number prove that I was right, but too bad for me : the ADF published three
days after the thesis due
their new military policies, anyway even if I had used them it wouldn‘t change a
thing.
Canada
, his military expenditure is 7.4 Billions US$
For 1.2 of the GDP. The population of Canada is 31 281 092. Only 0.03 of the
population work for the Canadian Department of National Defense. Government
spend an average on military per capita of 238 US $
etc. etc. etc. etc.........
