Keep in mind, the only person who REALLY knows the history of the world is the coordinate holder, currently Eren, who will eventually come to know the truth once he has the power.

Any supposed information about how the world was before the world within the walls should be treated as suspect and definitely not the whole story.

Think about it, all books containing information about the world before the world within the walls are illegal. It is a crime for a regular person to go outside the walls. That couple who tried to leave the world within the walls using a hot air balloon are murdered by the first interior squad.

There is clearly an ulterior motive for the walls, it's not just keeping the titans out, but it's keeping the people in. And not just in, but deliberately ignorant of history. Rod Reiss, was the one who stated that the First King Titan was the one who created the walls, duh.
