Irrelevance
Nerushi, this is not meant to slight you in any way, but I am politely asking that you back off of trying to mix a bunch of irrelevant pieces of information that distract from the point I am trying to make, which I think to this day you still don't get. My point is this: Hyrule's major government "headed" by the Hylian Royal Family was not established until the end of the Hyrulean Civil War. Yes, the Royal Family may have previously led the entire Hylian tribe, but they obviously did not yet rule over the entire realm. Yes, Hyrule's tribes lived in peace for ages prior to this, but the government headed by the Royal Family over the entire realm did not exist. Now it is established in Ocarina of Time that the Hylian Royal Family came to power over the entire realm as a result of the Hyrulean Civil War, so there the ultimate ruling government of the entire realm was founded.

Now, let's go to The Minish Cap: Gustaf states that, at the present time of TMC, he ruled over all of Hyrule "countless ages ago". Now, common sense says Gustaf can't head a government that's not even yet established. You argue that TMC precedes OoT, but this contradiction seemingly makes that almost impossible because OoT states that the government that Gustaf would have headed was not established until the war shortly before OoT. Simply saying that Hyrule itself has been in existence long before OoT makes no difference here, it's irrelevant. The whole point is the government of the entire realm was established shortly before OoT, and TMC establishes that at some point after that founding that Gustaf headed it at one point. Now we fast-forward "countless ages" to the time of TMC: By this point, a LONG line of rulers over the entire land of Hyrule have ruled it. Now, given this information, how can you say that TMC precedes OoT? How can you say that this very long line of kings had ruled over all of Hyrule before the government of the land was even established? That establishment came as a result of the Hyrulean Civil War as said by the Deku Tree Sprout. And we only have roughly a decade between the HCW and OoT, give or take a bit. Now, how can a LONG line of kings extending "countless ages" have ruled Hyrule in just that short amount of time? It's not feasible.

Let's take an example: You argue that Barack Obama's election as POTUS occurred before the American Revolution. I say: "President Obama can't head a government that's not even established yet." If the states have not even joined to form the federal government of the United States, how can President Obama head a government over all of the states if it has not even been founded yet? He can't.

This is my entire point. Gustaf could not head a government that was not even established yet. He claims he ruled all of Hyrule countless ages before the events of TMC, but that government headed by the Hylian Royal Family was not established until shortly before OoT, so therein lies the contradiction. Now, if you want to argue otherwise despite the logic, then feel free to do so in your section concerning your theories. But do not tamper with the point I am trying to make here, as you are putting in things that are beside the point I am trying to make. I hope this helps you understand what I'm trying to get across and that you will refrain from distracting from the point I'm trying to make clear to fans about this matter. Thanks.
