Slane is far from becoming stagnant, unlike Re-Estize which is already oozing out all the overflow. Even if the people are growing restless, the Cardinals still have a tight grip on the masses. Volume 10's intermission also shows that despite what most NW people would believe, Slane has been influencing the world behind the scenes in a way to mold the world to their perspective, in a way to create stronger followers to become of use against the anything not human. A country which has reached the end of the road cannot do that one bit. Except that their machination with Re-Estize hit a solid wall and then Ainz appeared out of the blue.

As for whether Ainz's country becoming a second coming of Slane would depend on whether they can maintain a solid chain of administration with a clear cut rule set. Most in the higher country administration are undead which can live almost indefinitely unless destroyed. If they can run a small kingdom like Sorcerous Kingdom, they can manage the bigger picture as they don't require sleep, food nor rest; the perfect government servants. Or they will all run amok when Ainz exits the scene and destroy everything within the hour. Who knows what will happen. Still, the next volume might provide some insight if Ainz really is going to be killed for sure.
