I only used the 900 billion figure because we don't know the actual number. Could be 2 trillion or 3 trillion. Who knows. But 900 billion figure worked just fine when comparing to the US Military annual recruiting/officer commissioning.Nobody700 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2025 4:33 pm Also on the 900 billion civilians... that's how many would die in the war, not TOTAL population. Total war would END the Dominion invasion. The Dominion's strength was NOT showing this was total war till the very end, because if they did threaten the Alpha Quadrant with total war... the Alpha Quadrant would STOMP THEM. They had to form deals and trades and peace agreements. Remember, the moment the Romulans joined the Federation and Klingons... they won. It took a while, but the moment the Romulans joined, the three parties only suffered ONE real defeat, and were just victory after victory.
Just a numbers game really.
