Are there countries missing? It's hard to see how Indonesia or Pakistan could have fewer than Portugal.

Little Belarus (pop. roughly ~8.5mio.) has a police (and military) way out of proportion!

Yeah it would be cool to have the same quiz based on police per capita. Nice Quiz.

@johnlk: There are countries with statistics that were missing, but I plan to update the quiz when I find them. @eja82: I was actually thinking of doing that. Stay tuned to the quizzes I contribute!

@eja82: yes, you should definitely do a per capita version of this :-) This one is great already, but that would be even more interesting.

What, no North Korea? Judging by the parades and processions, it looks like everyone is involved in Law enforcement, lol.

@StateGov: I think the case with North Korea is that there the military does a lot of what police do in most countries.

The one time I don't try Portugal...seriously, they are never an answer.

I could imagine that in different countries the classification of police/military/meter-maid/security-guard is slightly different. Good quiz though.

I'm surprised by the lack of some populous countries like Vietnam, Philippines and Egypt.
