I never understood why the Caldari are allied with the Ammarians regardless. Only reason is for this self interest, the Caldari needed an ally and the Ammarians were powerful enough to oppose the Federation. Honestly all things considered there would have been more likely a common defence pact between all powers to contain the Ammarians (USSR/British Empire alliance) including the Minmatar than the current set-up.
Even then, Caldari sympathies would have been towards the Minmatar over the Ammarians, it looks like a quirk of geography and game design that there is no extensive border. Its all game design, the need for multiple powers in two light alliances concurrently with geopolitics. If this was real it would be a three way system like what we had in the Cold War, an Imperialist Ammarian Empire, Interventionist Federation and a non aligned alliance of the Caldari and Minmatar, likely with a Caldari lead.
Look at the lore, there's a tiny amount of Caldari and Minmatar interaction, I think that the minor factions have more interaction with each other than two of the Empires.

A bit like the bitter hatred and Cold War between the UK and USA really.

LMAO... I'm pretty sure dreadnoughts shooting at each other could start a war. If the Gallente really wanted to escalate things, they could.
No they can't. Escalation, if the Gallente counter invade then the Ammar/Caldari alliance has an opening to turn it into a 3 way war for the federation, which they cannot win.
