Does the militarization of a country or its capacity to produce nuclear weapons matter as far as a destination for travel though? Genuinely asking.



I don't think so. Unless the country in question is actively at war, their military budget or weapons arsenal does not matter to me as a tourist. Its not like they are going to nuke their own cities.

If anything, I want my travel destinations to have as big a military as possible. As a tourist I don't have to pay for any of the negative externalities of a large military, but would benefit from its protection.
