Mufasa was only King of his own deluded mind.
Lion society is matriarchal. The lioness motto seems to be, "Hey if it keeps the babysitter happy, we'll call him King Dopplepopolis, Emperor of Oz." Males have the illusion of power while women run the show. They do the hunting, establish hierarchy and generally call the shots while the male(s) patrol the borders and patiently wait for a female to deign to mate with his lowly ass.
