I don't know what sources you're using, but claiming to rule something is not the same as being able to efficiently exploits resources there.

How many subjects does Aquaman actually have, what kind of economy do they have and how are they generating all that wealth?

If you rule a couple of thousand people, it doesn't really matter how much area you claim to control, you don't really have any way to monetize these claims.
