Sometimes you're trying to justify things existing in your world, and you come up with a single explanation that covers a bunch of results and it is elegant and feels satisfying.

For all of its faults and flaws (the post-main-story Stormblood story-driven proposal to take all the looted wealth of Ala Mhigo and hand it over to a fucking corporation as an investment instead of giving it back to the people was agonizing) FFXIV had a pretty decent idea with Dawntrail, where a distant land invites your character and your adventurer companions over to learn the culture and work with it rather than invade it.
