However, I feel as if people are putting down Vacuo a bit too much and failing to consider some things. It is implied Vacuo has a lot of tough and rough people good for fighting. All that is genuinely required to use them for war is incentive. They could easily hire a bunch of them as mercenaries to bolster their numbers in the event of conflict. Something similar could perhaps be done in Mistral due to its seedy underbelly. Again, there is also the Faunus militia and if Faunus were to be harmed or killed due to a fight between Atlas and Mantle this could prompt their involvement...

1. They have tough people, that isn't disputed.

2. they have a "king", but from the way it has been described, they follow tribalism, this means that the leader needs to cater to each tribe for their support or he has nothing.
