Now, we do know from the story of The Priest under Questioning Ordinary and Extraordinary by Hanje that The Powers That Be actively restricted the development of technology from better guns to flight.

How do we know that happens to the Homeland? Granted, the fact the Homeland does not straffe Wall Maria with F-14s and the like rather suggests that they either lack the resources which includes numbers or there is also an active restriction.

We also do not know "what" the Homeland is. The best we have is considering the land where B and R are when Ymir comes by to eat their friend as a part of it. If that is the case than the Homelanders have to contend with Titans. Why are they not controlled? "Because they do not have the Coordinate!" you type madly into your keyboard. Fine. But Zeke controls them. Mayhaps he can only control the ones he creates?

Other than that, we can consider Annie's home a part of Homeland. That and the B & R scene suggests a rural and farming-type community.
