For this contest I have chosen my home country Spain. My champion will be a soldier from the spanish tercios, here's some trivia straight from wikipedia;
The Spanish tercios were the first modern European army, understood as an army made up of professional volunteers, instead of the raising of levies for a campaign and the hiring of mercenaries typically used in other European countries. The care that was taken to maintain a high number of "old soldiers" (veteranos) in the units and their professional training, in conjunction with the particular personality that the noblemen of the lower nobility who nurtured them, were the basis for their being the best infantry for a century and a half. In addition, they were the first to efficiently mix pikes and firearms.
And some backstory for my champion.
As part of the military force known as the spanish tercios, Llamarada is a long range heavy hitter. Capable of inflicting serious damage with his musket and rapier, both of them adapted to the red bull's strength.
