Well GX had three times the nobles of any of its neighbors so...
Also, disregard literally everything Magnus ever said. He was a teenager and that was almost 10 years ago IG anyway. It all went out the window the second Selenia was forced to take his throne from him after he'd alienated his people to the point that it sparked a civil war.
Well by then it was already too late of course as the animosities had been created. And yeah GX had three times the nobles and though that meant you could subdue the rest. However the other nations feared GX because of that and did not want to let that happen, hence the current war.
