Yeah it was really short lived. And it was also kind of random to be honest, trying to establish a mutant nation in that period and time when the school was doing pretty well and without showing any consultation with other mutants about it. I feel like Taylor wanted to tell this story with the social criticism shoved in and went on about it.
Anyway, it still kinda proves the point that Hickman made the right choice when he chose the political figures of Krakoa since Jean didn't really get the time to be developed as this expert diplomat.
