Once we get more then 3 continents this might not be much of an issue anymore. Just guessing. Constant 3-ways, which is what the empire footholds on all continents currently produce, is not good. I produces stalemates and going around in circles taking territory. This isn't anything new, we had 3-way stalemates happen in PS1. But there were ways to break those stalemates in PS1 by attacking other continents that gave powerful benefits to the other empires that owned them.

EDIT: What they need to do eventually is have it so there's a chance that each empire can have an opportunity to fight over all the different maps with a chance to see the entire map. Not all maps at the same time, but eventually after playing a while you would have the chance of seeing all the content the maps have to offer. That should be the final design goal and I believe it will happen with more continents.
