>>28021101Well we do have a rather short coast line and our sphere of influence/interest is very far from /2434/. /Who/'s admiralty wouldn't really concern themselves too much over the naval development of /2434/ especially since they doesn't have much that /who/ can
steal from. We would be more worried about /inf/ and /meat/ than any other countries. Since the first one has a tech advantage over us together with the rather tense bilateral relationship. The second is an ally of the first and acts as potential a potential rival to our access to the Eastern Holo continent. (Well probably anyways, not set in stone) Our naval planning would focus on Homeland defense and some shipping protection but I do plan on making it so /who/ is slowly shifting it's strategy to have a bit more global outlook.
That aside I really think you can have a little more leeway when it comes to the actual size of any navies since Vitubia countries are absolutely massive. Of course they probably wouldn't be as densely populated as comparable irl countries of the period we are going for, it still presents more manpower and resources to justify a bigger navy as long as there is a reasonable cause for the country to do so. I think not just you, but everyone should look a bit into how ocean currents and wind would affect trade routes in Vitubia. We just assume ships take the shortest route on the map but the conditions of it would impact the naval strategy massively for every nation.
