Ans: (c) Loot collected by the army
Explanation: The false statement regarding Military Fiscalism is Loot collected by the army. Military Fiscalism does not refer to the collection of loot by the army. Instead, it is a fiscal policy implemented by the state to generate revenue for military purposes through centralized tax arrangements.
