Audis Gall did not wipe out the other three countries entirely because Lenburg's current Beyonder Marionettes were only enough to garrison the entirety of Intis.
Lenburg's rise was far too brief; before the outbreak of the Second World War, Lenburg's military strength was actually somewhat insufficient, and it was only thanks to an outstanding commander like Medici that the Lenburg Army appeared to possess an overwhelming advantage.

The reason this happened was mainly because Audis Gall was unwilling to control those Beyonder powers through the form of a church.
Furthermore, Audis Gall had no need for believers; anyone who understood Gal Runes was essentially equivalent to his anchor. Anyone who had read his books was his anchor. Moreover, the engineers of Extraordinary Technology were also his anchors.
