After traveling throughout the United States for six months, he chose to make the [[San Francisco Bay]] area his home.

This '''list of countries by size of armed forces''' displays national troop levels by active troop strength, number of Naval combatants, fighter aircraft and [[nuclear weapons]]. The list’s ranking however is based in the number of troops, not in the numbers of tanks, aircraft, ships or power of the armed forces. This list is indicative only, as strict comparisons cannot accurately be made. For example, "troop strength" in some forces might include administrative or paramilitary functions that in another country might be civilian roles and therefore excluded from the below figures.

Andreas Nottebohm is an artist. He was born in Eisenach, Germany in 1944. From 1965 to 1969, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich under surrealist painter Mac Zimmerman. In 1968, he studied etching at J. Friedlaender workshop in Paris, France. Nottebohm first visited the United States for a one-man in 1978. After traveling throughout the United States for six months, he chose to make the San Francisco Bay area his home. NASA has commissioned Nottebohm to create more than fifteen major works, including official paintings to commemorate the first launch of the space shuttle Columbia in 1981. He has had over one hundred one-man shows in Europe and the United States and his work has been featured in museums and galleries around the world including the permanent collections of the Crocker Museum of Art in California, Nevada Art Museum, and Smithsonian Institutions.
