Hmmm...I have a slight suspicion he isn’t all there, in the head I mean!
He's practically an evil god, developing an evil aligned nation! While he doesn't have any plan of some conquest or massacres, not even we really know what his real goal is, how does he expect the other faction to just let him be to "develop a peaceful nation where everyone is happy"!
Only hoping we don't go down the cliche road of "actually the supposedly good nations are truly evil, and the evil one is really good!"
