History Film / BlackPantherWakandaForever

* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Applicable from the perspective of nations worldwide. [[spoiler:Shuri defeated Namor, the leader of Talokan, thus leaving the latter at her mercy. She instead gracefully offered a truce between Wakanda and Talokan, also ensuring Talokan largely remains a secret to the rest of the other nations and thus keeping Namor's own ambitions at bay - for the time being at least. This however means Wakanda takes the blame for all the prior attacks by Talokan on the surface world]].

* OutlivingOnesOffspring: T'Challa has died while his mother, Queen Ramonda, is still alive -- a fact that she is ''very'' distraught over. After Shuri agrees to meet with Namor Ramonda is forced to confront with the possibility that she's been kidnapped or killed -- even without knowing it for sure the idea alone pushes her to the brink.

** Namor's encounter with a hypocritical priest likely influenced Namor's ''own'' moral myopia. He's utterly convinced of his infallibility and that nobody on the surface can be reasoned with regardless of intent -- even his attempts to negotiate with Wakanda are more of an effort to strong-arm them into an alliance. While being bitter towards the Conquistadors is understandable, he effectively punishes people hundreds of years later who had nothing to do with colonization.

** Just like his comic counterpart, Namor is Pride personified and is utterly convinced of his own infallibility. From the very beginning he trespasses into Wakanda rather than open relations conventionally, which in normal circumstances would be considered a serious diplomatic incident and yet he solely blames Wakanda for the rising tensions between the two nations. He refuses to consider the possibility that Shuri and Ramonda being so hostile towards him is because he ''trespassed'' rather than just opening diplomacy through more conventional means. [[spoiler:In the end, he only surrenders because he realizes it puts Wakanda in a position to give him everything he wanted anyway.]]

** [[spoiler:Killmonger's ghost still refuses to accept wrongdoing, justifying his actions as necessary to strengthen Wakanda.]]

* VillainousLegacy: While Killmonger has been dead in-universe for the better part of a decade now, his actions in the first film continue to haunt Wakanda. The destruction of the Heart-Shaped Herb left T'Challa the last of the Black Panthers (to say nothing of weakening Wakanda's military leading up to the Infinity War -- a repercussion which, in its own way, arguably contributed to Thanos' initial victory). The destruction of the Herb also robbed T'Challa of a potential cure for his illness. The internal divisions Killmonger created and exploited have also never fully been healed (ex. Ramonda has ''never'' forgiven the Council of Elders or Okoye for siding with him).
