To calculate your military budget

Copy and paste in your browser:
http://www.pipian.com/stuffforchat/gdpcalc.php?nation=(your nation here)

To get a realistic overview of what your military budget might represent

Simply add to the precedent URL the following line:
&defenseprovided=1&defense=(the amount you spend on defence)

Note that you CAN'T in practice spend more than 31.

Example
