I hope you find this market somewhat relevant

This option will resolve Yes if any of the entities of entities of Bosnia and Herzegovina introduces conscription, including the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as Republika Srpska.

Wait how does the US not have a conscription policy? The draft was never done away with it just hasn't been used since WW2. Sure its not a "standing draft" but every male is still required to sign up for it.

@DrEthan For the purposes of this poll, registration for a potential draft such as in the US Selective Service does not count.

@soweliSon well the poll is also limited to Europe, I just think it's funny that Statista doesn't include the US

@DrEthan

Interestingly, the Republic of Ireland and Malta are the only two countries in Europe that never enforced a draft.

Turn on add more options to anyone 🥺

@RanaG I have a particular colour scheme and text in mind. Don't worry, I'll add every country in Europe eventually....

Can you add Latvia?

@SaviorofPlant Done! 🇱🇻

@SaviorofPlant It seems like Latvia already established conscription on January 1st, 2024. Therefore, I am resolving it as N/A.
