The Liangxia Empire has not advanced into the Xuan Continent post-war, even in regions of interest, primarily relying on proxies to maintain its own interests. Fundamentally, this is a geopolitical issue, such as the Empire's reluctance to create more enemies on a continent far from home.
These geopolitical shortcomings have continuously bound the Empire's hands and feet.
In contrast, offshore countries like the Newland Republic do not face such issues.
For the Newland Republic, it only needs to control offshore areas centered on the Nangu and Beigu Continents, at most gaining a few footholds on the World Island.
Clearly, compared to the World Island, the offshore areas are much smaller and easier to control.
Importantly, despite language differences, the Newland Republic shares strong cultural commonality, especially in religious beliefs, with the countries in the offshore areas.
