@miranda2030 I am not sure what you are asking. Asserting his dominion over (something) means: Taking power over it. Is that helpful or are you asking something else?

Usually you would say "asserting his dominion over" something (like over his family or over his kingdom). But if you are making a summary statement in "Q." and asking if it sounds natural, (which I think is what you are asking) I would add to it so it reads: "Asserting his dominion over the princess gave More Martell the power to rule the kingdom" (or to rule the land).
