6th Largest Military

In 1959, President Eisenhower wanted to show the Soviet Union how great America was, so the USA set up an “American National Exhibition.” There Nixon and Soviet leader Khrushchev got in an argument over Communism vs Capitalism. As it got heated the President of Pepsi stepped in and offered Pepsi to Khrushchev. Khruschev loved it and he wanted to bring Pepsi over to their country. The problem was that their currency wasn’t accepted throughout the world. Instead, Russians agreed to trade vodka for Pepsi. This was all good until the late 1980s when their contract was going to expire and vodka just wouldn’t cut it for payment. So instead Russia traded with Pepsi 17 submarines, a cruiser, a frigate, and a destroyer for $3 billion dollars’ worth of Pepsi, making Pepsi the 6th Largest Military in the world, albeit only briefly. Sadly instead of terrorizing the seas and shooting harpoons at their enemies, Pepsi decided to sell the fleet to a Swedish scrap metal company.
