Since the first doubts about the original concept of good Humanity vs bad Titans we are trying to find some absolute true. And what if the absolute true behind the AoT world doesn't even exist? Instead of it, we just have two conceptions, one pressured by Eldians and the second one being made by Marleyans. Two conceptions, that cannot be distinguish as a true/false just because the double perspective of the story. Our perspective was primarly focused in Walled Eldians, but if the story would be narrated by the Marleyan point of view, the true history of the World would be retold (and we, as a readers, still wouldn't have a chance to say which conception is the right one). Marleyans were discriminated by Eldian Kings, possessing the Titan Shifting power. They finally found a way how to fight against them, and after they had won, Marleyans stared to doing the same as Eldian Kings were once doing to them. Now the Eldians are being pressured, but this could be reversed if the current Coordinate holder would return to Mainland. ''And then what? The Eldians would once again discriminate Marleyans? The whole process would start over again. ''

Since the beginning of the story, Isayama is playing a game with our assumptions. What is true/false can be very irrelevant, if you consider all of the aspects/points of view how can be the story of AoT presented. Reminds me of that  Chapter 66, where Historia has to make a choice, repeat the same process that Frieda has gone through by eating Eren or leave the fate of humanity in the hands of Eren?
