Best PD?

The standard answer would be "depends on the circumstances". There are some PD that suck without mage or priest backup due to having low morale or subaverage equipment trying, but failing, to compensate with numbers that turn moderately awesome with just a bit of backup to keep them in the fight or buff them.

LA's Bogarus' PD, the scum of the scum, is an example of this. There are just so many members of the PD (IIRC you get 3 medium infantry, 1 heavy infantry, and 1 archer in total per point over 20) and Bogarus strength lies in its exceptional mages, so you can perform amazing PD+mage defences if you have the money to plop down in a strategic location... but at the same time it is poor everywhere else and the low morale archers break for a bad word, so...

If looking at PD without any sort of backup and PD that is both nice before and after 20 is reached, then the heavily armoured human nations are probably the "best". Nations such as Ermor, Man, and T'ien Ch'i.
