I see it as individual nations.  Formoia might have a very advanced navy 
along with Donara, Clima and some others but others like the A'korchu colonires in the swamps might have only swamp flat boats or rowboats.  Knowledge is power and money helps.  But I see it as primitive as barges and rowboats for some to full triremes, warships up to ballista, rams and possible pnp tech (magic, etc.) tech.  

For earth might be Egypt river tech to Greek level but not anything as advanced as 1700s galley tech.
