Demilitarization is something the Persan are not really willing to do. Their society is very militarily oriented and demilitarizing would be harmful to their economy. Their also a Stratocracy and mandatory military service is how citizens gain the right to vote and how officials are determined to be worthy for political office, the size of their military has to match up with the influx of their population into adulthood.

Also the constant threat of Darkling incursions, attacks, Saucerian Singularity raids, the rising threat of the Scelus Purification, and gods known what else maybe lurking around the corner means that they regard reducing the size of their military and ability to respond to threats anywhere is something their simply not willing to do as they would regard as to big of a risk. They will most likely try to convince the other powers of the same.

In Mirus the next threat is just around the corner, there is always something lurking in the shadows, and the Persan refuse be caught unprepared.
