Org is going to look FABULOUS.

So I'm looking at joining this RP as a side-gig to my other shows. But I must ask: why only a population under one-thousand?

I can concede this if everyone's supposed to be playing villages or a small region of several villages. But looking at the map and the territory I'm really scratching my head at the population density I'm assuming is happening. I trust the map isn't depicting an area as small as Rhode Island where such territorial claims would be acceptable, since it seems to be showing a lot of geographic and natural diversity something the size of Rhode Island wouldn't have. Therefore, I got to to assume it's at least the size of Europe.

And guessing that before the advent of agriculture at least Europe may have had a population of maybe several million it seems very unrepresentative for the major tribes to be assuming populations of up to 900-999 on such large areas of land. Like, these tribes aren't even stable: they're dying.

A social group doesn't have to be small to be a tribe. It just has to have a structure that is representative of a status before anything could be called a "state".

I think you're taking up with a non-issue. Whether we have thousands or hundreds, the management of the few is the same as the management of the many in lots of respects. Population sizes wont get in the way of me trying to tell a story. 

Hell, if the GM decides to relocate the RP to an actual planet, but retains the pop numbers, I've still got the creative fire power in my imaginary arsenal to make things work. 

In short, grab a seat friend, close your eyes to some of the things that upset your perceptions, and join us!
