Canaris Nova and Arcadia are allied specifically for situations like these, as the Empire-invading-the-principalities thing has happened before in the past. They've never done it on such a grand scale, though. What if I did a coup? Funded a revolt against the oligarchal family, and swept in to "restore order" in the ensuing chaos. Canaris Nova is perfectly happy with the ruling family, who are far more lenient than their "iron fist" policy would dictate. They're steel when it comes to the law, but they let people be free to dictate their own affairs. And no-one wants Imperial control over them, especially not a Grand Marshal who seems to delight in the torment of others.
