Would these incarnations engage in battle to save their own hide, or were they powerless to do anything?
A country could not be an incarnation, as an incarnation is generally an idea. Death, war, famine, faith, conquest, dream, desire, destruction, etc. - Wildbow on Reddit</ref> It is an idea given life and thus unkillable with weapons.

An incarnation comes into being when a person summons and melds into it.<ref>Collateral 4.4</ref> Multiple copies/versions/emanations can exist concomitantly and even absorb the lesser versions of themselves for strength.<ref>Collateral 4.1</ref> They cannot go against their nature as incarnations with out a loss of power, which makes them somewhat predictable. They can absorb other people to gain power and evolve their concept, to be able to break from what they embody.<ref>Interlude 5</ref>
They are the type of Other that is powerful enough to affect the area they inhabit as a sort of pseudo-Demesne.<ref>Collateral 4.2</ref>
