After World War I, many argued that armies should be made smaller to prevent future conflicts and to reduce military expenditures. The devastation of the war highlighted the need for peace and diplomacy over militarization. However, others believed that a strong military was necessary for national security and to deter aggression. Ultimately, the decision to downsize armies was influenced by a complex mix of political, economic, and social factors, leading to varying approaches in different countries.

What Armies were used in the cold war?

Other than the "hot battles" of the cold war; Korea & Vietnam, no armies were used during the cold war. If any armies had been used...there would not have been a cold war! It would have been World War III. The standard "standing armies" (armies that existed but were never used) were the NATO (and the short lived SEATO) and Warsaw Pact armies. The Warsaw Pact armies were the USSR's version of the free world's NATO armies. Another words, had there been a war (instead of a cold war); NATO would have fought the Warsaw Pact armies.
