I mean, Chapter 87 pretty much established that none of the Marleyans could turn into Titans. Without Titan powers and the advanced tech they currently have, how is it even possible for Marley to beat Eldia in the past? So I came up with a few possibilities:

1. They developed an anti-titan weapon which hasn't been seen yet. Or maybe they even developed 3DMG as well! Who knows. But if so, I doubt it is too effective, since it seems that they are still afraid of titans and the Coordinate.

2. Some Eldians, like the first king, became sick of the constant conflict between the Eldian tribes, and decided to defect to the Marley side, resulting in the Titan civil war.

3. The whole story about a Titan civil war is utter BS and just part of Marley propaganda to keep the people in line. It never happened.

What do you guys think about these ideas and how do you think Marley defeated Eldia?
