I assume her army worked for her out of fear and respect. Hell, she probably paid them, like an y army'force. Will Scarlett chose to serve her, after all, I'm sure he's not the only one.

I would say that the Red King, and his family or group or whatever, were the actual power in Wonderland, and Cora stood outside of it. They clearly had a truce and mutual respect. It made sense to me that Anastasia would want to cast aside the "Red Queen" and all the terrible things she did and give herself a new moniker. And when you have power like that, you can du such things XD

All Cora ever wanted was power. She had that in Wonderland. She wanted to be a Queen, so she styled herself as one.
