We see later in the series that the nation of Marley have been turning people
into titans and dumping them on the shore of Paradis. But why? King Fritz
warned the world that if the citizens of the wall were ever threatened by an
outside force he would send the colossus titans inside the walls to flatten
the Earth. So why send titans? I assume its a kind of revenge for the great
titan war, but why risk the wrath of the king?

Why did Marley send titans to Paradis Island in the first place?


High-ranking people in Marley nation such as the Tybur family probably knew
about the king's lie. As Willy Tybur admitted knowing this in the episode
"Declaration of War" episode 4 of the final season.

However (perhaps) hiding this secret was used as a tactical strategy to
motivate people to attack the island (not everyone is going to buy that " one
gazillions years ago their ancestor killed your ancestor so turn them into
zombies and lock them behind bars").

So because high-rank people knew about the bluff and hated Eldians for their
"sins" and they wanted their resources and the founding titan, they keep
harassing the island while used that bluff to motivate people against them at
the same time.
