OK, as one of the few Belgians on the list, I _have to_ react now. :-)))
Yes, we have armed forces. Very few indeed, but that is intentional 
because we have enough treaties with other countries and NATO. As for 
the "weight" of these Belgian forces: well, I had to perform for them on 
several occasions and I think they're only good at one thing: drinking 
beer. Depending one these people for our national defense doesn't feel 
very comfortable. :-))

(note though: the situation in the world wars was completely different)
