"Miscalculated" 

Godlif Country was just a medium-sized country but who in this human continent would dare to mess with Godlif Countries? 

Just by the fact that they could still survive under the vigorous growth and rebellion of the mafia families alone showed that Godlif Country's military strength was strong. 

And those mafia families,  no matter how bad they were, were still quite patriotic, so if other countries' forces dared to attack Godlif Country, those badass mafia families would definitely protect their motherland. 

Some people even suspected that the government didn't completely get rid of the mafia system because they wanted to keep those forces tied to their territory. 

If another country came to invade or something, the mafia families definitely would lose their territories. 

Even if some countries might promise the mafia families that the territory would still be kept, it was just different.
