I mean, sure, we can pretend nation-states are run by moustache-twirling villains rather than nuanced individuals who may/may not have justified their own patriotic morality.
Well, since you gave me permission - that's one hell of a moustache-twirling villain. For somebody who values stability, he has made a specific point of not working to bring Ul'dah into the Garlean fold. There's not even an argument against him losing power within those circumstances, because we have seen non-Garlean characters earning acclaim and power within their ranks.
Sometimes these characters aren't actually that nuanced, but we justify them as such because we'd really prefer them to be. It gives us the story we want in our heads.
