Genert only ruled a part of the continent that bears his name (and the same could be said of Pamalt). He only makes it as a guest star/evil uncle in Orlanthi myth whereas Kralori, Malkioni, Yelmic and even Pelandan mythology do not know of him or his rule. If he was the ruling god of all Genertela, I would expect to see some more evidence of his existance in Maniria and Peloria.

Look at the chaos wars map at Uz Lore and you'll see that the Chaos Armies did not physically visit all parts of the Wastelands. Furthermore they visited other parts of Genertela which are more fertile today than the wastelands.
