IIRC Vale just doesn't conscript their citizens. From WoR: Kingdoms: "Next, comes the military. While most kingdoms only call on its citizens to serve when needed, others find it important to be... prepared."

So, no, not every Kingdom has soldiers on hand at all times. Most of the Kingdoms only have soldiers when they feel it's actually needed. Atlas prefers to be prepared at all times. Which honestly makes Atlas the last Kingdom you wanna declare war against because they're already ready to go over there and kick your ass from the word Go.
