I can understand that, but since when has it been used in a relative sense rather than ana bsolute one? After all, no-one talks about, say, Nicaraghua having a larger agricultural sector than the United States, even though your definition would mean that they did.

Hmmm...
We don't usually talk about it and compare it in in such a manner, no, but I've been under the impression that we would and that it's been that way all along. But, I suppose I could be wrong...

I was under the impression that "largest" referred to "worth the most money" in the case of "largest agricultural sector" and suchlike.

Yeah, but it's pretty freakin' hard to get your book publishing up that high, considering how infrequently my nations seem to be getting those issues.

You don't need to have Arms Manufacturing as your central industry to have a powerful army.

Back to the real world, we notice that Western countries with strong armies have something like 80% of people employed in services, and not manufacturing.

Don't worry about it now, but I was certain that you'd just 'made up' the numbers on the Military Might Calculator.
I see now that there is a much more reassuringly occult reason for this.
