In 1914, the Canadian Army was relatively small, with around 3,000 regular troops and a reserve force of roughly 50,000 men in the Non-Permanent Active Militia. When World War I began, Canada quickly mobilized its forces, ultimately raising over 600,000 personnel throughout the war, despite its initial modest size. The rapid expansion reflected Canada's commitment to the Allied war effort and its evolving military role.
The Texas Army at San Jacinto numbered 910 men and two light cannons.

The Army wanted to increase its troop strength by 50,000 men for this War, and over 220,000 men volunteered.
Approximately 500,000 US-Hispanics served in the US Army during WW2.

This was the Bounty System. It was the practice of military recruiters to offer cash bonuses to men to entice them to join the army. It also had the unwanted side effect of 'Bounty Jumping'. Men would enlist, claim the bounty and then desert. They would repeat the process many times.
young men felt patriotic about the war. This meant that they had a positive attitude about it and were eager to serve their country.
A generous bounty - a bad idea, because men would take the money, immediately desert and join up again, just for the money.

Your "facts" are in error.Between 65,000 and 100,000 blacks served in the Confederate Army. Let me restate that: as many as 100,000 blacks served in the Army of the South. These men were cooks, musicians, and soldiers.Of the 179,000 blacks who served in all aspects of the Union Army and 19,000 who served in the Navy, 40,000 died in service.Where the majority of Northern blacks volunteered, many of the Southern blacks were pressed into service, although quite a few volunteered to serve in the Confederate cause.
