I mean the fact about rising from the civil war, this could mean several things like an hyperbole or for example the USA rose from WWI, it didnt become the only power in the world or the most powerfull country but it became a big player in world politics, the same could be said from the BRICK countries after the depression, take my country Brazil for example, before the depression we were a fairly unimportant 2nd world country but now we are the 7th biggest economy in the world and have one of the bigest economic growth rates in the world.
sorry for grammar english is not my first language and my keyboard is -blam!-y right now.
I thought about this and tried to see how it would fit with the other things mentioned, but in the overall context I found that it didn't. The extent of their rise to power is indicated in the other entries, for instance the overwhelming majority being Storm Elites and the most experienced warriors being a part of it as well, as well as references to the New Covenant Order. It indicates, overall, that they are not just major players; they are practically the only player left.

Also ONI didnt want the war to end they wanted it to keep going while they rebuilt so i doubt they would have allowed the arbiter to be killed.
ONI were not expecting Jul to escape and establish a new burgeoning Covenant either. There is little ONI could do to stop Jul toppling the Arbiter and doing exactly what ONI feared: Giving the Elites focus and real reason to destroy Humanity.(Such an obvious plot twist I saw happening from Glasslands day 1.)
It's not a matter of ONI wanting to protect Thel, it's a matter of the writers wanting to get rid of him.Maybe, or Maybe he could have gone into exile, or blockaded himself in his keep or another colony, he could have lost the war but still exis as a government in exile.
it's quite clear that Halo 4 was centered on humanity vs Didact as there *SPOILER ALERT* is no mention of any sangheili character outside the terminals, litteraly the only actual characters that apear are the Humans, the Didact and someone else that im not going to say who it is.
