Call Of Duty: The Bay Of Pigs Invasion

100 million people have played Call of Duty. That’s a larger population than most countries! If the entirety of the Call of Duty fan base formed a country it would have a greater population than Germany, France and the United Kingdom. They would be a credible international military threat.
