So, now, an offshoot of warrior mutants who number in less than a thousandth of the entire population of Earth rules over the solar system? It doesn’t make sense. Sure, you can set up conflict over this, but if aliens were real, no aliens are going to recognize Mars as the seat of a real government. They might see Krakoa as the world’s government, but probably not. It’s kind of silly.
"Might makes right" and all that. The mutants just geoengineered a planet in-between courses at their cocktail party. The Shi'Ar already acknowledged them as rulers before that feat. This their star system now.
