There are two scores in your input (every standalone music expression at
top level is a score).

The first score is \time 3/4 and that is the one that lilypond calls
"system with empty extent".

The second score is \relative c''' { c d e f g a } and is set in the
default 4/4.

Put { ... } around your music expressions in order to turn them into a
single music expression and consequently a single score.
