your army charges towards the super power of the region
after a seige that lasts 20 years
half of your army is dead but you take the settlement
your population grows by 20 thousand as all the satelite settlements of the super power are now yours
you need not worry about food or supplies for a very long time
but with your army only at half strength due to losses and the lengthy seige all your settlements are vunerable
what do you do?

a) ask for volenteers to join your army, this will take longer to a mass an army but the people will like you more for it
b) enforce conscription, conscript every able man over 20 to 10 years service in your army
c) convert some settlements in to army camps, where everyone born will be raised to be part fo the army

I watched a short documentary looking at the conscription in South Korea. It focused on the families and the lives of the men before and after being in the Army. Although it seems like a short period of time (2 years in different branches) its emotionally draining and many men are signed away on longer contracts without really understanding the implications. The policing of it is terrifyingly strict also. You can be locked away for years if you try to leave the army or the country without serving, I'm pretty sure it's seen as treason.

I had a look for it but sadly couldn't find it. I think it might have been for a TV show, possibly for the BBC.

In that respect i choose A.

you run a volonteer campaign to get more soldiers it's slow but you eventually mass an army
this takes a 150 years
you have had a son who has succeded you and he has also had a son whom you now take the role of
your army is built your people are still happy
you have been seiged by other settlements trying to become the new super power but threw your defensive tactics
and increase in technology you acquired from the old super power
you have held the fort and lost a small ammount of people
it is now that you explore the region you live in more vastly than ever before
you find that you are on a small continent and that the only way off is by sea
but before that you must either take control of or join forces with the other towns on the continent
either will take a large ammount of time
so do you

A) use the army you have made to force all to submit to your will, the land will be yours but you may have rioting and revolts in some settlements as the new people may not take to your powermongering
b) use the army to destroy every settlement left not under your banner, the land will be yours and no one will revolt against you
c) try to peacefully get everyone to truce with you, they may or may not join you and you will have no control of the other settlements they will be independant and only help you technologically advance if they see fit to do so
