What types of weapons/armor or tools of war are common in your setting? Are there any exotic, unique arms in your setting? Why did that equipment become popular there?

Depends ontheir role.
The royalty uses a fucking huge spear. Meant to symbolize agreements with the indigenous people of the current continent the main story takes place. Technically, it was originally a sword, but they added a shaft to it. Thankfully, the royal family is not expected to be THAT skilled with such an unwieldy, ceremonial weapon.
A bulk of the military tend to favor bludgeoning implements, namely maces, this is due to a history of the current civilization having fought and dealt with scores of undead raised by a mad king. So, smash up a body beyond use to be raised as a zombie or skeleton, now all you need to worry about is the specter that'll pop out. Oh, naturally this is paired with shields. Strength and endurance training end up making up a bulk of boot camp.
smaller folk like halflings, gnomes, and dwarves end up actually preferring spears and other polearms to compensate for their lack of reach, but they'll usually pair it with something smaller and skilled fighters will distract with the spear point then stick a knife in your knee.
Because drow, even if having eaten several courses of humble pie in this setting, still remain snobbier than high elves and fancy themselves nobility (even if the entire underdark was destroyed by the Mad King burying the place) and tend to love their swords.

If you like Juttes OP, I got something for you.

There is more bronze equipment than was common in the Middle Ages. Because orcs can't sense it as they sense iron, which they eat.
There are repeater muskets, but they are rare even among the ones which invented them.
