"Prequel" means "installment set before another, older installment". In that sense, ACZ can only be a prequel to the previous six games. And none of them except AC5 ever referred to the Belkan War, therefore ACZ is most accurately referred as a "prequel to AC5". By the same logic, AC5 is not a prequel to AC6, because AC6 was both released after AC5 and is chronologically set after it.
