Recently watching ABC news articles about North Korea esp have prompted this thought.

Why is it that mainly militant countries (you couldnt call them nations) have armys who in huge numbers do the 'Goose Step" My short list so far is
Nazi Germany (Was it done earlier?)
North Korea
China
Cuba
number of African places
I think Russia used to

What is the significance about it?
Where does it originate from?
And Why ?

thankyou
