So basically, do you like the Empire and what it stands for? This need to dominate and control all neighboring provinces. Although it claims to bring peace throughout the land. The Empire is merely a tradeoff. Either you've got one gigantic political and military entity controlling trade and directing wars in specific directions, or else a lot of petty warlords and local rulers all bickering and fighting, with nobody safeguarding trade. In either case, you've got wars or a lot of smaller local skirmishes in their place, and setbacks to trade legal restrictions and taxes or else bandits and protection payments.
