Line 163:
*Cities with 100,000 residents must send 10,000 residents off as soldiers or load bearers carrying food, weapons, armor, and equipment for the armies
*As the average "small" city hosts more than half a million residents, even the smallest Mikaean households on the planet may field 100,000-strong armies
*The laws of warfare within Mikaean soldier allows for absolutely brutal behavior and widespread atrocities due to overpopulation on the planet and need for resources
**The Mikaeans view all conflict as total war, with civilian casualties a major − if not primary − objective during conflicts between households
**Soldiers do not see distinction between combatant and non-combatant, and all Mikaeans not of their house are killed equally by the soldiers
**The concept of mercy does not exist within Mikaean society or military doctrine, and those who surrender are simply regarded as easier to kill
