The world building is very poor

After the first three seasons the shows world building was awful.

They make all the kingdoms seem like city states.

They keep referring to the sun elves as having an empire but it apparently collapsed after their capital was destroyed. I understand stand that losing the could be devastating, but an empire or even a simple kingdom should at least have other villages or towns. They shouldn’t need the humans help or be forced to live in tent cities. Yet they act as if the sunfire elves have lost everything with no where else to go.

Why is it the humans who are the ones helping and not the dragons or the other elves the people who are supposed to be their allies. It’s not even mentioned or asked about once instead it’s their former enemies. I get the sunfire elf subplot sucked but it’s crazy to see how little thought was in it.

Katolis is said it he the largest and most populous kingdom yet after losing their capital (though the scene makes it look like it’s just the castle) they apparently lose everything and the population is forced into a small lodge rather then any of the other towns or villages. One of which we even see in season 2 , but apparently the kingdom is gone and they have to make a new city. Rather then just move the capital to a different town.

At the end of season 3 many kings and queens of other kingdoms are dead their armies took heavy casualties. They also don’t say if they ever helped or cured the soldiers they captured. Shouldn’t that have huge consequences.

Queen Anya of Duren killed the prince of Neolandia in support of the elves. They never say if the other nations or even the main characters are aware of Viren was behind the assassins. Their a possibility that the king of Neolandia (who is alive) believes his son was killed by a queen working with the same people who tired to have him killed. Shouldn’t that have massive consequences maybe even a potential war.

What do the normal people think of their king helping the elves who have historically treated them poorly and even killed the former king. Choosing to kill their own soldiers and other people to help their old enemies. Do they even know what Viren did or are they left in the dark.

Theirs more but this post is too long and these are my main issues.
