Microeconomics can be defined as a branch of economics where the behavior of individuals and small impacting organizations are studied, where each of these decisions are allocated of limited resources. Microeconomics looks at these behaviors and investigates how it affects the supply and demand of the goods and how this affects the pricing. Macroeconomics studies the total economic activity regarding growth, inflation and unemployment and can deal with national economic policies.
The real reason for maintaining armies is the same reason why some men buy expensive sports cars... overcompensating.
Seriously, think of armies as insurance. Even if it's small, amateurish, and under-funded, it's likely to give potential bullies a little pause. (Of course, a big country like Iraq can sweep up a little country like Kuwait in no time flat, as we all know).
Part of the answer is social/ economic/ political inertia. The military is part of the playground for the elite and privileged. (I use the word playground as in "fork over your lunch money, weakling.") Who wants to get rid of their army just to balance the budget? I sure haven´t seen "fire soldier-boys" on any IMF or World Bank wish lists
