I think, its because of the lady, and the riches of the country. if woman can be knights and every noble is a knight (even bastards) then is feaeable to have at least 100k knights (not fully armed and trained)
And a note: the Knight Kingdom's population is about six million, but in official campaigns, knights die easily, often losing thousands in a single battle. Where do they find so many knights? This makes it difficult for me!

The Helots were not a people, they were the decendents of conquered Polis by Sparta, and in some cases war enemies like the athenians that were use as miners or argeans as slave soldiers
My primary caretaker and the housemaid Anataisha is a helot. I have come to learn this from the slurs Laurel dishes out. I feel horrible for the helots as they do no wrong and are the backbone of Spartan agriculture and outnumber us by a heavy margin around 7:1. They cannot rise in social classes only in the most obscure cases they can rise to even artisans. They were conquered by the Spartans in pre-700 BC and have been treated as halfway between slaves and serfs ever since.

but , a user with armour is invincible in that regard. dragon glass can harm aura not metal.
The dragon glass seemed to have an unsettling effect on Daemon's aura, drawing it away from him. He felt weaker as the dagger seemed to absorb his essence. Struggling to regain his composure, he yanked the dagger out, the sensation of his aura returning to normal.

haha, he's using ousen strategy (kingdom)
Was it to trick the Tyrrells and the Lannisters? Make them think that we are struggling. Or was it to get in the good graces of the smallfolk? The King would personally tell the villagers to leave and seek refuge, telling them he had to take their homes as it was wartime, but he didn't need their lives. I heard a few whispers calling Stannis the merciful King.

I think is a temporary number, probably most them are the survivors of the carnage at the fort
"There are about 300 men, but at least 200 of them are wounded, we have about 400 women and about 100 children."

He knew that the Martell family would never fight another war, not only because it would be difficult for Dorne to support another war after a big defeat, but also because it would seriously damage Prince Doran's "revenge plan" .

It depend on the context. In a street fight where you have to take the sword quickly, yes it's stupid. But if you are carring it and have a minute or two to prepare before a battle it's possible.
[Dawn] is too long to wear around the waist, so Samwell can only carry it behind his back.

yep the katana is overrated. The kopis of the greeks was lighter, cheaper and as a one-handed it can be used with a shield. The most important thing is that the cutting capabilities were the same as a katana
Then there were times when I just burst into laughter as characters who had powers to annihilate continents would simply just ride a horse to the battlefield. Or kings would simply gather together the most powerful superhumans together in a single unit and expect their blind loyalty with no effort to counter the power imbalance. Or how a reincarnated/ transmigrated person would rather just arm their soldiers with a fucking katana than a gun. Yeah, that is the technological advancement that will save your petty little shithole of a county now. Yes yes, I know, the katana is the greatest sword ever, but you see, the katana is a sword, and swords are fucking sidearms, not primary weapons, so how can you make me believe that a 1.2 meters long katana can be useful against a 3 meters long spear?
