A whole heck of a lot of people have just died, and the population of the civilized parts of the world haven't even started to recover. After all, the Last War JUST ended. Think of Britain or France two years after the end of WW2. Things are still being rebuilt. In my mind, most large cities in Eberron are now about half empty. That's how many people had died. There were so few able-bodied warriors left that they had to start building them. Think about how desperate they would have needed to be in order to do something that expensive.As to the low number of countries, I can see that better. Seems to me that things would have ended up a bit more fractured than they are in the book, with small warbands ruling the fringes of all the major nations, where they couldn't afford to keep things patrolled. I'd say there was a lot of lawlessness as one reaches the edges of a nation.</blockquote>
