Gameplay wise having strong units in a faction is what matters, not the amount of enemy factions one has, since they are mostly used for battles in servers ( this statement becomes true when it comes down to a two-sided war with no allies involved and an equal amount of players).

It doesn't make a lot of sense for warriors to be praised by the locals only due to mere richness they possess, but instead due to their pluck and efficiency. If this rank (gilded warrior) was achieved from heritage, like it happens in India, or from treasure, then the overall populace could feel some repulsion towards them - but instead they build statues to pay homage to those who most likely greatly defend their people and homeland.

They build those statues most likely because their rulers have the riches to afford these extravagancies, and by riches I mean gold and slaves.
