The WoL and others would kill the last "antagonist based" emperor and completely shatter the empire into more of lesser nation like the other three and make an alliance with them.
Otherwise, the entire empire would really fall apart.
Also I really doubt FF14's main focus was to fight against Garlean Empire forever. Technically the Heavensward is now focused on battling against mostly Dravanians.
We also haven't seen a lot of other islanders that may exist in the lore too.
Well, that's pretty much what happened at the end of FFXII with Archades. The transition would take a long time, realistically, so having it happen overnight wouldn't be very realistic. The thing to remember is that the races within the Eorzean Alliance have mostly all been at war with each other in the past so there's hope that tensions between the Garleans may eventually subside especially if the Eorzeans end up becoming more technologically advanced themselves.
