Little iffy having India separate from UK (also British is spelled Briish). You also have "0" in the Notes field for Russia and Serbia. No figures for Romania?

Montenegro, Brazil, and, especially, Romania all participated enough that they should be on there. I imagine Romania would actually be fairly high - around where Bulgaria is. Including India is fine, though - it was counted separately at the time, and had a distinct army with its own officers and command structure.

I missed Romania. Thanks for that. My source didn't have info on Montenegro. My guess is that it would be very small. Even now their population is under 1M.
