The values showcased below are all considered for the final GFP ranking recognized as the "Power Index" (abbrv: "PwrIndx". PwrIndx scores are judged on a perfect value of "0.0000" which is realistically unattainable due to the number of factors considered per country. Bonuses and penalties are added to each nation (as needed) while landlocked countries (ex: Austria) are not penalized for lack of a standing navy though they do suffer penalties for not maintaining a useful merchant marine force. A total of 126 countries make up the GFP ranked list. MANPOWER Going beyond military equipment totals and perceived fighting strength is the actual manpower that drives a given military. Wars of attrition favor those with more. Total Population: 177,155,754 Available Manpower: 72,319,838 Fit for Service: 40,707,659 Reaching Military Age Annually: 3,455,147] Active Frontline Personnel: 130,000 Active Reserve Personnel: 32,000 LAND SYSTEMS Tank value includes Main Battle Tanks, light tanks and tank destroyers, either wheeled or tracked.

Oil Production: 2,525,000 bbl/day Oil Consumption: 280,000 bbl/day] Proven Oil Reserves: 37,200,000,000 bbl/day LOGISTICAL War is as much a battle of logistics - moving man and machine from points all over - as it is direct combat.
