?"Arrows' Flight?is a very populous Shire, and continues to influence the surrounding area"

???? as opposed to...


?


Populace is a noun, and refers to the people in a group, village, or area specifically...


"The populace of Arrows' Flight continues to grow. We will assimilate you.?Resistance is futile."
