ultimately i tend to side with the military that actually goes out and does stuff. but that is my admitted bias.
Good point but ? would get bad because Venezuela has the backing of the majority of latin America(Not that really matters , Plus China and Russia ain't MIGHT MIGHT buss thier guns. them poor flavila ? gonna give the government hell.MrSoutCity wrote: »@janklow it was in one of those wikileak cables....Here is an article

Interesting. For a minute there, I thought you were Venezuelan and were just picking Venezuela out of mere patriotism heh. Wait, are you Venezuelan?

01. what exactly do those other nations bring to the table? meh
02. hell, even China is largely in that "let me see them do something" category
but remember, this debate is a straight-up "Venezuela versus Brazil" question, so we can leave the allies out for now -

I see what you did here... -
First off, I just want to say thread of the year is written all over this.
Second, some commentsWild Card (I have the United States, France, Russia, Germany, India, Pakistan, Turkey, and China generally as the top eight militaries in the world, so they get bye weeks)
1. Brazil def. Canada. I matched these two together because they’re both incredibly underrated and are probably the two most powerful nations of North America behind the United States. I have Brazil winning because of its modern and large (the largest in South and Central America) military.
Canada ftw - Brazilians would be unable to bear the cold Canadian climate and would die, word to WWII.
2. UK def. Ireland. These two obviously hate each other and have hated each other for centuries. The Troubles was a particularly violent period, and issues over Northern Ireland are still unresolved. The UK’s large and modernized military (especially navy) however is too powerful for Ireland.
Agreed
4. Mexico def. Spain. I don’t know much about either militaries besides the fact that Mexico fought and won its independence from Spain, but I figure that Spain’s power has been on a long decline and Mexico’s armed forces has long been active and tested especially with the drug cartels.
With that logic you could argue that France would lose to Haiti.
