=== Military ===
Emul does have a military, but they are not particularly skilled, and are considered to be less capable than Tukari soldiers,{{book ref|sa3|24}} one potential reason the Emuli have been losing their war. At least some portion of the Emuli army is made up of men who are normally farmers instead of career soldiers.{{book ref|edgedancer|3}} The Emuli view warfare in a unique way; they consider it crass to directly strike another warrior, preferring to do damage from a distance. Accordingly, the bow and arrow is the favored weapon of leaders, then spears, halberds, and finally swords, which are the the typical weapons of regular soldiers.{{book ref|sa1|55}} Highprince [[Aladar]] has begun advising the princedom on defensive tactics, which may help the army improve.{{book ref|sa3|111}} Certain leaders of the Emuli army are involved in the command of the campaign when the [[coalition of monarchs]] launches a mission to retake the Emuli homeland.{{book ref|sa4|98}}
 
== Culture ==
However, the Vorin peoples to the east believe the Emuli to be pagans, despite the similarities between their faiths.{{book ref|sa1|54}}
 
=== Economy ===
Emul is still largely agrarian with many people working as farmers, reliant on crops such as [[tallew]]{{book ref|edgedancer|3}} and [[lurnip]]s for survival.{{book ref|sa1|i|7}} The war with Tukar has not been good for the Emuli economy, forcing many farmers to take up arms to repel invaders.{{book ref|edgedancer|3}} This has left their fields vulnerable to raids by people looking to sell the crops for an easy profit. Some Emuli also make a living working as mercenaries in other kingdoms.{{book ref|edgedancer|4}} The southwest coast of Roshar is rich in trade, and Emul's capital Sesemalex Dar is a fantastic port and a major trade waypoint in the area.{{book ref|sa1|54}} The city is also renown for its fantastic crem pottery.{{book ref|sa1|55}}
