      @@ForestArchaicCollective Has probably just been a wave of know-it-alls.
      And as I've never been there I don't know what you've forgotten ;-)

      am finding estimates for Ragusan military strength hard to come by,
      The political dynamic of the republic revolved around their Ottoman Suzerainty , such that if they were attacked they could (in theory) call on the Ottomans for their defence,
      Since during the 15th-17th century the Ottomans had one of the largest & most feared army & navy in the mediterranean , the tiny Republic of Ragusa didn't need to have a huge standing army - rather they were famed for their diplomacy and mercantilism precisely to avoid conflict. What military strength they had was based mainly around policing their territorial waters
