How many small factions will bannerlord have(not country) ?

[FlowDream]

I kown that bannerlord has small factions like raider or forest bandit like warband, will bannerlord have more factions? I play Prophesy of Pendor more than 500 hours, one of the reason I'm addicted in it is that it has plentiful factions(more than 10) like elves, jatu,heretics. Small factions enriched the culture of the mainland， and small battle with their party is interesting. So How many small factions will bannerlord have? What do you think?

There looks to be at least one minor faction per large faction, but if I recall correctly, the player can’t join them. Maybe they’ll add that, though.

From what I can understand/guess you'll be able to recruit unique troops from the minor factions. For example the Southern Empire will have a minor faction where you'll be able to recruit the equivilant of a varangian guard etc. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
