design just ONE province

In the example provinces, the commanders are specified, but not the troops themselves - how do you specify that?

Its diffrent for the different programs but the map commands they are using are
#commander
#bodyguards
#units

So putting
#commander "Legionnaire"
#bodyguards 5 "Gladiator"
#units 20 "archer"
#units 30 "militia"
#units 10 "knights"
would create a nice little group to bolster the defences of a province. It can also be done using the numeric ID instead of the name of the unit.

Does poptype determine what kinds of units can be recruited once you capture it? Is there a list of poptypes anywhere?

Yes and Yes. Magic sites can also add to what can be recruited.

There is a variety of lists here that can be handy for this.
