It was happening at the same time approximately, so i dont see any reason to include denmark and sweden over portugal and spain.
But you shouldn't just mix the two conflicts.
There's is also a Peninsular war mod in-development right now.

Alright then, maybe he shouldn't include spain or portugal, but there's still just as little reason to include Denmark or sweden. How about nations that were actually fighting at the time of the fifth coalition?

There hasn't been any mods set during the napoleonics including Sweden.

Serbs for Austria! Why? No reason other than they just look so GOD DAMN SPIFFY!

Reason for adding "German" troops (I use quotes because they were referred to as Germans but in reality they were made up of Austrians, Walloons, Czechs, Italians, Croats, and Italians; The Austrians, Czechs, and Walloon regiments made up the majority) They were often able to spring up from near defeat and snatch a victory, the Hungarians had great fighting spirit, but the "German" troops had a resolute sense of duty.

At Marengo the Austrian 63rd Infantry Regiment (Wallons) defended Fontanone, took 443 casualties, their colonel was shot 3 times and they still held ground. Also I would add either the 17th or 47th (Czech) infantry, during the Battle of Asper-Essling they distinguished themselves pretty well, killing half a thousand of the famous French 18e

TomahawkAU I sent you a lot of pictures of Polish Duchy Of Warsaw Units, hope they are the good choice for your mod.  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

By the Way I love the idea of you adding Poland to this fantastic mod.  ;D  ;D

I remember a guy from FSE (think was Vincenzo) saying you can not have over 5 factions in NW or it breaks the game.
Just incase you were thinking of adding more than that...

How come there's several mods out there with more than five factions?

That's because they are single-player mods. There can only be five factions in multiplayer, however that restriction doesn't exists in singleplayer.

It should not matter since it's the same engine.

In theory you could add 5 million factions, only problem holding you back is memory usage, each faction in napoleonic wars has about 10 regiments with about 4 ranks each, thats 40 unique uniforms, 40 textures, 40 normalmaps, 40 specmaps.

Adding a lot of memory usage, if you have too much of that the game will crash on low-spec systems.

Some mods might not have their nations that extensively unique allowing for a lot more nations without using too much memory.

Yes but L'aigle is a mod for mount and blade warband : native - just like mount and musket was.  Its not a mod for NW, its in NW that you can't add more than five.

The part in bold should answer your questions.
