B-but you're only half of a dog...
Game: Hey, Vanheim! Here you go with Lanka as a neighbour - they failed expansion and will be an easy score!
Vanheim: I'd rather ignore them, thx.
Game: Hey, why don't you take TC cap? They are being ganged, and basically free territory for you!
Vanheim: Naah, I'd rather wait til Mictlan conquers them, and then reclaim it the hard way.
Game: Ok, somehow you are still the strongest nation around, and also protected by NAPs with other major powers. So what will it be, feasting on dying Mictlan, or maybe ganging on Lanka together with Niefelheim? Both are guaranteed profits.
Vanheim: Actually, let's cancel the NAP with Niefelheim and die.
