We don't know how old the Cartel is, but the Glukkons and Mudokons supposedly were allies so long ago that none of their written records state it. So it may be thousands of years old. We don't know what exactly started the downhill slump, though.
Maybe the Glukkons discovered that they could skimp on the pay a little without the Muds noticing, and then when they did notice they were too polite to complain or assumed it was only temporary, or something. And it got out of hand from there on.
