It might not have been as big a deal as you think. The Great War might've simply bankrupted Mantle, and Atlas might've come about through a reorganization of the bureaucracy. Think how the Old Republic became the Empire, or for a real-world example, the Soviet Union ran out of money and became the Russian Federation.

Also, the fact that Kingdoms never mentioned a defunct Kingdom of Mantle could either be b/c RT hadn't thought of it at the time or Monty intended it this way.
