My inquiry question is “The correlation between a country’s economy and its military power.” Because of my interest in the economy, I wanted to do a project involving macroeconomics (study of an economy as a whole). However, I wanted to also research another aspect of what makes up a country and eventually settled upon its military power. I chose to research about military power because of its mutual connection with its economy. I also thought it would be interesting researching how a countries military can affect its economy. Furthermore, I have limited knowledge on how a country’s military works such as not knowing what power projection is. Researching this topic would enrich me with more knowledge and enable me to learn more. In conclusion, I have stated my inquiry question and listed my reasons for choosing such an inquiry question.
