The obvious connection is that Mantle has a wall to protect it from Grimm, and once breached would get similar results, except I’ve pointed out it’s already breached. Didn't they send a large portion of evacuees who managed to escape the breaking of the first wall back to be eaten by Titans? I think it was mostly because there was not enough food for everyone since the area between the first and second wall contained the majority of their farmlands.

Correct.
