Top 10 Countries and Nations with the Bravest Armies

When you think of the word bravest, what image comes to mind? Perhaps it's a soldier charging into battle, a medic rushing to save a life under fire, or a peacekeeper standing their ground against overwhelming odds. The concept of bravery is deeply intertwined with the military, and for good reason.

Throughout history, armies have been the backbone of nations, defending their borders, their values, and their people. But not all armies are created equal. Some stand out for their unwavering courage, their tactical brilliance, and their unyielding spirit in the face of adversity.
The Top Ten
Pakistan Pakistan was established in 1947 and is located in South Asia. Islamabad is the capital city of Pakistan. Karachi, Lahore, and Peshawar are other major cities of Pakistan. Urdu and English are the official languages of Pakistan. The world's second-highest peak (K-2) and ninth highest peak (Nanga Parbat)... read more

The Pakistan Army is one of the toughest counterparts, as well as battle-hardened simultaneously. Not only are they nullifying continuous combined attacks from various countries, but they are also fighting conspiracy theories quite bravely. Death is like a wish for them, having no fear.

They fought with India three times and taught them a lesson. They fought tremendously against two superpowers: first, the Soviet Union, and then America and its allies in Afghanistan, defeating them.

Finally, the main power of the Pak Army lies in the trust, faith, and love of its people.

Japan Japan is an island country in East Asia in the Pacific Ocean. It lies off the eastern coast of the Asia Mainland (east of China, Korea, Russia) and stretching from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea and near Taiwan in the southwest... read more

They charged in honor of their country, shouting Tenno Heika Banzai before charging and executing kamikaze attacks. Tenno Heika Banzai means Long Live the Emperor! Most of the army wasn't afraid of death.

In the Charge in Russia, some people attached anti-tank bombs to themselves to destroy tanks. It obviously killed them. Along with the kamikaze attacks, this proves they weren't afraid of death.

The bravest in WW2 were famously known for the kamikaze, the bravest and most honorable fighters the world has seen. They sacrificed their own lives for their country and emperor in the code of Bushido.

India India, officially known as the Republic of India, is a country located in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area and the most populous country, with over 1.4 billion people. Additionally, it is the most populous democracy in the world... read more

India is, of course, the land of the brave. Since its independence, it has fought five wars and 21 battles. The Indian army has been victorious in all these conflicts.

In fact, during a war in 1971, 93,000 Pakistani soldiers surrendered to Indian forces, and India separated East Pakistan from West Pakistan, creating a new country called Bangladesh. Such is the bravery of the Indian army.

The Indian army has also deployed one of the largest peacekeeping forces in Africa and has successfully repelled Chinese forces whenever they tried to intrude into Indian territory or the territory of its allies.

United States The United States of America, or the U.S.A. for short, is a federal republic composed of 50 states, 48 of them are contiguous states.

Thirteen men just gave their lives after the new terroristic government in Afghanistan, i.e., the Taliban, let ISIS walk right in. But that doesn't scare us. Yes, we mourn their deaths, but we appreciate their sacrifice, and the sacrifice of thousands of others. Despite this pathetic show of ISIS power, they are no less courageous to go and fight on our behalf. Just because we have better tech and the second-largest army (in terms of numbers) doesn't make these men and women any less brave, nor their sacrifices any more meaningless. Any American voting for another nation on this list is clearly not showing national pride.

It is the second-largest European country, covering approximately 600,000 square kilometres (230,000 sq mi), and has a population of around 40 million people.

Pakistan is a joke. Israel has the bravest army. It won against seven armies in what's called the War of Independence. Since then, every war has been against three or four armies, and Israel has never lost a war.

So why do they struggle with Palestinians? It's because they use a very small force against them. They don't want the world to be mad at Israel.

Israel is brave, but they are also very smart, so you might want to remember that.

Well, guess who confronted 6 countries and won!

China

Long live China-Pakistan friendship, from Pakistan!

China is strong on its own, but with Pakistan, they are indestructible.

I'm not British, though I wish I was. One thing I admire about the UK is their tremendous acts of courage during WWII.

British civilians sailed across the English Channel from May to June 1940 to rescue British soldiers trapped in Dunkirk, France. They risked getting bombed by the Germans, but their determination to save their countrymen was stronger than their fear. Winston Churchill made a speech regarding the Dunkirk evacuation, with the famous lines that the UK would fight to the very end and that they, as a country, would never surrender.

Shortly before WWII, posters were published telling Brits to keep calm and carry on. They were to remain courageous and live as normally as possible, no matter what happened. The Blitz failed to crush the UK's morale and courage. Instead, it achieved the opposite: the morale of the British people was boosted, and they were all the more determined to never give up or surrender. Hitler finally realized that he would never be able to invade the UK and turned his eyes on the Soviet Union instead.

Long live the UK! They are one of the most courageous countries to ever exist!

Nepal is a Hindu nation. No offense to other religions, but different religions have different benefits. Islam has the benefit of high manpower. Christianity has the benefit of high intelligence. Buddhism has the benefit of a high acceptance of peace.

Hinduism has the greatest power of all: bravery. You can have intelligence, a peace-welcoming attitude, and high manpower in your army, but what is the use of it without bravery?

First of all, Nepal is known for its brave Gorkhali soldiers. As we all know, the British Empire was the strongest empire in history, ruling over many countries, but they couldn't rule over Nepal.

This is because Nepal has brave soldiers who are never afraid.

Australia is one of the bravest countries in the world. These guys have the best reputation on the global scene. First, they saved a group of Navy SEALs in Afghanistan. Second, in the same operation, they infiltrated an area that British SAS, Delta Force, and SEALs couldn't get anywhere near.

Finally, during the Vietnam War, they were called the phantoms of the jungle because they were so deadly.

Never fear the enemy. Defeat them or die. That's their motto. Never do bad things. Be like an independent person, not like a prisoner.

Because Allah has made them independent, why should they become prisoners? They are brave, strong, faithful, and fearless.

They had the best fighters in history. Although nowadays, they seem to have forgotten their strength and purity.

Brave, strong, faithful, and fearless. This is how you describe the Saudi Arabian Forces.

General McArthur once said, "Give me ten thousand Filipino soldiers, and I will conquer the whole world." Maj. Gen. Henry Lawton also noted, "Filipinos are a very fine set of soldiers, far better than the Indians. Inferior in every particular regarding equipment and supplies, they are the bravest men I have ever seen. I'm very well impressed with the Filipinos!" Both of these figures have seen Filipinos on the front lines in battle, along with the history of the famous General Antonio Luna.

In the battle in Korea, the world was shocked by how well the Philippine soldiers fought against the enemy.

They are very brave and struggling people. There is an ongoing war, and they are trying to overcome it. They defeated the Russians, and nowadays, the Americans are leaving Afghanistan. This is the power they have to defeat all their enemies.

The world's best and bravest people are Afghans.

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan should be ranked first for several reasons: It never gives up. We have the bravest young people. Our people work hard to achieve their goals. Our people are very patriotic.
