* SuccessionCrisis: The Emperor of Earthworld dies early in the first book, leaving behind no named successor - in fact, the last thing he said to his sons before dying was to lambast them all because none of them was able to secure a decent powerbase from which to claim the throne by themselves while he was ill, and as such all of them were unfit to rule in his eyes.

** [[spoiler:Princess Zenovia]] of Marden makes [[spoiler:her]] country a vassal state to Natra rather than an ally, since in the former case, Natra would be obligated to protect them while in the latter case, Natra would use them as a buffer against invasion and thus left to fend for themselves, which is a problem given the sorry state of the nation both before and after being liberated and its new ruler's self-admitting to not being ready to be a full ruler.

* ZeroApprovalGambit: According to Claudius's history lesson on the founding of Natra, Prince Salema of Naliavene was stuck in a power struggle with his brother, Galea. Instead of solving this issue, the king intentionally egged on their conflict in order to protect his own power. While the two princes didn't want to oppose each other, their factions wanted to upstage the other regardless of their will. The faction war made the country vulnerable during the war, so Salema killed the king and allowed himself to be arrested and branded a murderer in order to take down his own faction, allowing Galea to ascend without opposition. Fortunately, Galea lightened Salema's sentence to exile and helped him establish Natra. [[spoiler:Hagel in volume 3 pulled this in combination with DeathFakedForYou: intentionally get himself attached to a rebellion that's forming in Natra and agitated by an outside power, deliberately weaken said rebellion so that Wein can defeat them easily, had his execution faked by Wein...just to tempt Cavarin to attack Natra after their king's death by Wein and for Hagel to be able to launch a surprise attack on enemy general.]]
