When we look at the way modern warfare is going land invasions may be a thing of the past
However some countries are safer than others, so if a rogue state were to mobilize their military in an invasion
There are some countries, which would be much harder to invade than others for various reasons welcome back to another episode
of FTD Facts guys
I'm Leroy Kenton, and this is a brief overview of why some countries could be so damn hard to invade over other countries
And like most of our other videos before I begin I got a question
I got a throw out to you guys and that is if you could rule any country
What country would that be I want to know what countries?
Yeah down below okay starting with number five we got Canada so Canada has a highly trained professional army of
95,000 soldiers and trying to invade Canada would not be easy have you seen them play ice hockey yeah
aggressive as I
can
swear in these videos so
But in all seriousness though Canada can rely on its massive size and harsh
climate to hold back enemies on top of this most of the Canadian population
Lives near the land border of the strongest military power in the world as well as their ally the United States of America
So if you wanted to invade Canada you either have to go through the US Army or the Arctic waters yeah
But either way good luck
Next up we have the country of North Korea
So North Korea is one of the most unique countries in the world and one of the only places on earth
Ruled by a communist dictator and while the citizens of North Korea may not have the most lavish
Lifestyle their army sure compensates for the many shortfalls in their country with around a million active soldiers
572 attack aircrafts
5025 tanks as well as a whole
collection of nuclear missiles now the North Korean military is ranked 23rd in the
World also North Korea's biggest ally is China the most populated country in the world
So despite North Korea having a lot of enemies. They're pretty good in terms of defense
Moving on and half way in this video we got United Kingdom
Surrounded by two oceans and the turbulent sea the British Alcon only be effectively invaded from the south
across the English Channel
And the United Kingdom's military is pretty hardcore as well ranking sixth in the world with cutting-edge
technology and surveillance equipment
Its defense budget is also forty five point seven billion dollars
Which is the fifth largest in the world as well as its?
Economy now being a member of NATO the United Kingdom has advantage of strong allies who will come to their aid in case of any
threat
Okay, so the second last country in this episode is Russia
Yeah
The massive size of Russia alone makes it a really hard country to invade
anyone thinking of invading Russia would go crazy trying to deal with the
Logistics of invading a country that has 11 time zone so try to imagine like coordinating
Strikes and attacks and all of that and did I mention that Russia is just massive. I mean it spans
5,700 miles wide the Russian army is very impressive as well and on top of that Russia has
nuclear missile technology which is second in the world next to the United States of America Russia
Also has their climate to their advantage
In fact in World War two when the Germans were advancing into Russia the Russian general simply retreated knowing that the cold weather
Would do the job for them and keep the Germans back?
Yeah
The German army did not clothe their soldiers correctly in millions of German soldiers died because of this
So we just took a look at some countries. That would be almost impossible
pretty much to
Invade, but what country lands at number 1 some of you may know what's coming up, but yeah
It's the United States of America of course the United States of America makes this list
simply for their military power alone
Like they have enough nuclear warheads to completely
Destroy the planet several times over and now their defense budget is
587 billion dollars per year and
That is the highest in the world I mean by far and that budget makes up almost a third of all money spent on
Military in the world also the United States is in a great position
Geographically and because of the country is so big right they have several
Types of terrain from forested mountains to really like just scorching hot deserts
I mean there's no power in the world that it's as threatening and dominating as United States
But that is it for this episode guys. I hope you guys enjoyed this and before
