And Atlantis isn't even that big in the first place. It's just a city state that is politically dominant over several other city states. Even put all together the various cities don't even remotely come close to claiming the entire ocean. DC comics has fishermen, offshore drilling platforms and recreational scuba diving just like our world. Really Arthur's realm is no bigger than Wakanda.
