The Kings and Queens and Emperors and empress outside the region seems to have followed the Lotus Order.
Lotus Order chose to compromise with the warlords and these independent regimes and maintain the false names instead of clashing with them.
Regardless Azief must admit that their approach is successful in quickly stabilizing the continent.
They might not have enough power to suppress all forces but Azief had never told the world power to oppress all the forces in that continent
As long as they could prove to the world that they could stabilize the continent and not have their authority challenged and defeated, then Azief would acknowledge that force as the legitimate force of the world
It was a different time.
The world was in so much chaos that an order needs to be established.
And Azief alone knows that if he does it alone, the order he created would be even messier.
