So as we all know, volume 3 will be release on October 24th, which my brother mentioned is also United Nations Day. I'd Like to speculate on the correlation between the kingdoms cooperating (via the Vytal Festival) and present day nations cooperating (via the United Nations).

The United Nations has spend most of it's existence attempting to diffuse international disputes, and to try to improve things. However the united nations doesn't seem to have enough clout over it's components to end wars. Likewise, I think that the Vytal Festival uses the tournament and spectacle to diffuse the conflicts the kingdoms might have with one another, but can only preserve the peace and not create peace out of war.
