Yep, this also hints that her brother is keeping tabs on her, and is playing some role in her development toward becoming the new ruler of Sank. If anything, she didn't suddenly become educated about all this politics out of nowhere. The show implies that Noin's showing her the ropes. However, Relena's not letting the lessons define who she is. She still applies her own philosophy to what she learns. Also, when she became queen, it was because Romafeller wanted a figurehead. They were expecting her to be a brainless puppet they could play with. However, that certainly wasn't the case. It would be downright stupid if she was utterly clueless after everything that went wrong in Sank. She learned from her mistakes. I don't think that's unrealistic. It's actually comparable to how eighteen year old Queen Victoria didn't let her mother control her when she came of age. If a real life monarch three years older than Relena could pull off a similar feat, I don't see what's wrong with Relena doing the same granted that she had people to teach and guide her. Victoria was raised under the Kensington system, cut off from the world. She managed just fine despite the lack of exposure. She adapted.
