As long as the king is god

FTL makes the rebels the enemy, but unfortunately they are also human extremists.

Ah yes, i am also a big supporter of the regional defense council of Aragón.

It's the old underdog story. It's popular because it's easy to write and sympathize with, and people like inspiring stories about rising up against difficult odds.
In the context of a video game, it gives a lot of gameplay and story opportunities that work well in the context of a single player. Having the player side with the kingdom means you have to either let the player interact with a larger political organization or have specific reasons why they can't or don't (usually when they can, it's a strategy game of some sort).
It's a little bit of a tired trope, sure, but it's there for a reason.

>bad
>good

>Continent split between a Kingdom and an Empire.
>The Kingdom is just as big as the empire.
>Game even talks about how some nations "joined" the kingdom.
That's an empire.

I always think of Star Wars when this comes up. In truth, the empire was the most stable government. I honestly saw nothing wrong with their new empire. It took a literal Sith to make things stable, compared to all the arguing and conflict that came before. No one can say that the Empire is worse than the last regime.

>empire bad
>kingdom good

>emperor bad
