Well, I can give one information from within Riombara - believe it or not, they do not want a conflict with Enweil. If they would, they would have attacked Enweil weeks ago - Riombara was basically stable and (apart from a few infrastructure buildings) did not need any real growth to be ready for war. While Enweil was beset by monsters and still had a long way to go to become stable. Riombara was very much aware at that time that they were in a position of considerable strength in relation to Enweil (roughly twice their army size, smaller territory while having a larger income, less dark borderlands) - a difference which they knew would vanish within 2-4 months (depending on monster attacks). They chose peace with and helping Enweil. Riombara is basically waiting if Enweil attacks them or not - hoping its the latter.
It would be a nice change.. though I am sure that Chenier has an explanation all on his own for that...which basically revolves around Riombara being both too strong and too weak while still being highly aggressive and their help being nonexistent, not asked for, plus with Riombara not receiving _any_ attacks from the borderlands it still needs to be premetively attacked by Enweil on a peace mission...grin.
