That's not because of the HP, it's because Niefel Giants are sacreds with good stats and have chill auras. Try expanding with 60 HP of Jotun Hirdmans and see how much fun that it. :-/
EA Ermor will probably have to either 1.) rely on elite units and/or sacreds for expansion, or 2.) send multiple commanders. Perhaps both. Honestly I think most non-bless nations would have trouble expanding with just a single commander.

The niefl jarl doesn't even *need* a bless. The chill aura certainly helps.
The Jotun Jarl would be perfectly useable for this as well, so, you know, your non-capital forts have something to produce.
I'm not even considering normal niefl/jotun troops - there's no point. You don't have a single commander who would let you bring a normal troop to the party and squeeze in under 60hp iirc.
