Thinking about the Germany parallel.

Atlas was treated as the aggressor, made paid compensations... The other thing Germany was imposed was disarming.

What if Atlas turned to androids for combat because they were forced to dissemble their human military?

If the Great War was the equivalent to WW1 but there was no equivalent to WW2, it is possible a good bulk of the Atlesian population is still holding a grudge. And, remembering the foreshadowing of the WoR: Kingdoms, Cinder might try to exploit it to detonate Great War 2 rather than a Faunus War 2 like we had been assuming.
