I wonder what would happen if we didn't have a military at all
Thats the trick. If a country doesn't have a military and they have something like resources other countries want. The become puppets of the countries that have militaries. The exceptions are small countries that don't have enough of anything anyone wants for others to bother taking it. They don't tend to do so well usually.
It's a race to the bottom.
We wouldn't see images like the Iranian girl's rucksack smeared with blood.
What do you think the drones are for?
