Why does Saudi Arabia spend more than 10% of it's GDP on Military spending?
I'm curious about why Saudi Arabia spends more than 10% of their GDP on military spending.
Saudi Arabia's heavy reliance on their military stems from several factors. One is their tense relationship with neighboring countries and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. Additionally, the country is home to two of Islam's holiest cities, which puts it in the crosshairs of extremist groups.
