That's what makes FFXIV much more interesting than me to other MMO's because there's no 'black and white' when it comes to nations. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if when we get a better insight into Garlemald we actually find it to be more like Archades from FFXII than the generic evil empire many paint it as being.
Are you sure? Because that only seems to be true of Ishgard and Ul'dah. Limsa and Gridania seem a lot nicer than their 1.0 counterparts.
