Theocracy

Agree

Increase

Theocracies may support increased military spending to protect their religious interests and maintain their power. For example, Iran, a theocratic state, has increased its military spending to protect its regional influence and deter potential threats. However, this score is not a strong agreement because theocracies may also prioritize other aspects, such as social welfare or religious institutions.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Some theocracies may support increasing military spending only after addressing their deficit, as they may prioritize fiscal responsibility alongside their religious interests. For example, Iran has faced economic challenges due to sanctions and may prioritize reducing its deficit before increasing military spending. However, this score is not a strong agreement because theocracies may still prioritize military spending over fiscal responsibility in certain situations.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Theocracies may be satisfied with the current level of military spending if they believe it is sufficient to protect their interests and maintain their power. However, this score is not a strong agreement because theocracies may still prefer to increase or decrease military spending based on their specific circumstances and priorities.

Disagree

Decrease

Theocracies generally do not favor decreasing military spending, as they often rely on military power to maintain their rule and protect their religious interests. For example, Saudi Arabia, a theocratic monarchy, has consistently maintained high military spending to secure its regional influence and protect its religious sites. However, this score is not a strong disagreement because some theocracies may prioritize other aspects over military spending.

Strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Theocracies are generally not in favor of creating a European military defense system, as they often prioritize their own religious interests and sovereignty over regional cooperation. Additionally, most theocracies are not located in Europe, making this option less relevant to their interests. For example, Iran and Saudi Arabia have historically prioritized their own military capabilities over regional defense systems.
