And as for Menagerie it is a perfect base of operations for Ozpins group. It is far enough from the other kingdoms that it wouldn't be the first place Salems forces would look for Ozpin's group. Second it is still close to Mistral and easy access to the rest of Remnent by Mistral's rail service. Menangerie also still has a working local comunications net. that seems to be contiante wide. And just becuse a nation is not considered a 1st poer does not define it's leader's infulance in world politics. 1) If Oz can't convince Ironwood to let them in, nobody can.

2) Menagerie is literally on the other end of the second largest continent from Mistral.

3)They don't have communications between Menagerie and Mistral. That's why Ghira had to send a messenger that got intercepted.

4) Ghira has no influence on world politics. Nobody cares about Menagerie, that's why the faunus got it.
