Wow did not expect so many reposes to my query! To avoid walls of text I'll refrain from triple quoting.

I don't think having a country was a prerequisite at the gathering. Simon for example had nothing, same with the Lord of Blood and Skullcrusher (RIP).

The Fulminato

But why would the Anak give a toss about War? Or conquering? If you think about it, the higher you go in tower matters the less and less conventional armies matter. The Anak doesn't seem to care about armies or conquest, just in 'smoothing out' any tower walkers or entities that make trouble.

I'm not sure there is anything to support your first point of there being risks of long term tower exposure. Ulrissa for example did have a tower in the physical world, but it looked like no one had step foot in it for decades. As for the second point you may have a 'point' as anchors in the real world do seem like a must. But still keeping an ENTIRE country just for that aim seems like much. Last point might be the most likely as rulers do seem to become tower walkers more then anyone else.
