Isn't it just?
People who want to turn this into some kind of simulator bore the crap out of me. This is fiction... Relax about it. Gallia is "big", has a "large number of warships" and a "huge population".
That's all the definition you need. No need for numbers, just let the reader/player's imagination take hold from there. Job done. Writers and roleplayers don't need to be meticulous in that way...
