Unless they are first supplanted by a power with similar or greater capabilities to support and defend the survival of the surrounding nations...and without any limitations on range.

But yeah, it would have been bad if Ainz were to go right into an all-out war with the Slane Theocracy right away that left Nazarick badly weakened and the Theocracy completely annihilated. Much better to vassalize all the other local nations before taking very selective and targeted action to eliminate resistance to accepting Ainz as a benevolent ruler.
