Honestly how likely is it we'd run into a situation where we have to tally the exact number of our troops to begin with? Granted we as a community are pretty in-depth when it comes to stats, but I ask: does it really matter? |

Well, every male in Lyventum is highly skilled and trained, due to the rigorous ways they are raised as children. However, they aren't actually part of the Army. If anything, they could be classified as Paramilitary, as most towns maintain a small local militia. The actually Army probably numbers in at around 900,000 men. The Airforce is FAR smaller, numbering in at just around 9,000 |

Right, but then you can probably count around half your population as military for defensive purposes. |

Too large of a military during a time of no war can bankrupt a nation. You would have to raise taxes so high that your economy would probably suffer and the people most likely will rebel against you. During a war you could get away with having a large military. If you win you pillage the nation attacking you or that you have invaded. If you lose your govt. falls so no one gets paid. |
