So, to my understanding, Lexa was the first commander to unite the 12 clans (Gustus says that the coalition was her, Lexa talks about allowing the Ice Queen into her coalition, etc.). However, I want to know what the commander's job was before the coalition was formed. Like, what did the commanders before Lexa do? Was their job just to settle disputes between clans? I have read some other people's posts and they seem to think that Commander was just the title of the Trikru leader, but that doesn't seem right to me because when we find out about Ontari (Azgeda Nightblood) we find out that all nightbloods are supposed to be sent to Polis for training. If Commander is the title for Trikru only, this wouldn't make sense. But if Lexa had to struggle to unite the clans, it seems for the first time, what were the other commanders commanders of?
