* Sometime in 1944-5 UsefulNotes/JosefStalin famously snorted "And how many divisions has ''he''?" upon receiving a communique from Churchill saying that the allied powers 'had to be mindful of the Vatican's power'. While the Vatican had of course fielded large armies containing the equivalent of multiple divisions, especially during its medieval attempts to conquer other Italian states, it had not done so since 1870 - when virtually all its territory had been annexed by Piedmont-Sardinia - and in fact did not have a single soldier in 1944-45: [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway Said 'power' was purely moral-spiritual, such as when the Pope had urged obedience to and later (in 1943) defiance of Mussolini's Fascist regime]]. Interestingly enough Pope John Paul II did, however, [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower reinforce Poland's natural inclination to leave]] the UsefulNotes/WarsawPact when [[UsefulNotes/HistoryOfTheColdWar Gorbachev announced that its members were free to leave]].

---> It's like the other Romans are saying "You and what army?" only for you to say "Me and YOUR army!"

When Joey decides to threaten them instead, one of the Killer Mob's members uses this phrase on Joey. Joey's answer? He may not have an army, but he can still rat out the Killer Mob to their rival, the Muscle Gang. [[TooDumbToLive It ends as badly for Joey as you'd expect]].

'''Connor:''' Thank you.\\

* ''Franchise/SpiderMan'':

Somebody retorts to some threat, request, or demand with "Oh yeah? ''You and what army?''" The phrase is supposed to be one of defiance, as if to say it will ''take'' an army to stop/defeat them. Usually comes in four flavors:

* One ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' sees Nobita being chased by [[TheBully Gian]] and tries calling Doraemon for help via payphone, but DOraemon, engrossed in a jigsaw puzzle, doesn't want to leave the house and tells Nobita he'll send out a bunch of "soldiers" to help Nobita. Gian eventually catches up and Nobita, trying to avoid getting beaten up, tells Gian an army is coming to save him. Cue the Gadget-of-the-Day, a set of futuristic Tin Toy Soldiers who fires [[MyLittlePanzer real]] munitions (albeit of the AmusingInjuries variety) coming to the rescue.
