Children above 2 years old are eligible to be taken by the Blood-Tax. The children of the 'outer provinces' are taken to 'Kadar' to be trained. There they are raised, and at the age of 12 are given an assignment, if they are military-minded they will be sent to the Abrazagar, or the 'Red-Cloaks'. They are sent to some of the toughest training in the whole Empire (think semi-Spartan). They are taught to adapt to many situations and be clever and intelligent. For this reason, the Red-Cloaks can fight in almost any situation from the jungles of Harad to the deck of ships to the deserts. If they are more intellectual they will be sent to be army engineers and scholars.

See, the thing is, now you have THREE factions that almost border me and all seem to be antagonistic to Umbar. You RP Xin as this undefeatable super-faction that's basicaly claimed half of Rhun. You act as if in a war Umbar would be squashed, and everybody already thinks Umbar's pitiful and weak.
