French term or phrase: Il n'en fallut pas davantage pour que...
The phrase is 'Il n'en fallut pas davantage pour que....'

I don't understand this phrase at all. It appears halfway through the paragraph below. The text is about an online computer game set in mythical lands.


Mais les vikings sont aussi de grands marins, et leurs techniques de constructions navales leur permettent de mettre à flot des navires robustes et rapides. Avec eux, ils se lancèrent dans de grands voyages contés dans les sagas, en quête de gloire et de richesses. C’est ainsi qu’ils débarquèrent sur les cotes d’Albion et d’Hibernia. Les premiers contacts n’ayant pas toujours été pacifiques, en retour Albionnais et Hiberniens firent des incursions sur leurs terres. Il n’en fallut pas davantage pour que naisse une surprenante alliance, puisque les ennemis ancestraux des vikings et des nains, les terrifiants trolls et les kobolds sournois, sortirent de leurs tanières de pierres pour empêcher les étrangers de mettre pied sur leurs terres.
