If Ulfric's Rebellion successfully forces the Empire from Skyrim, who's going to look after the people of Skyrim? The Stormcloaks won't be around forever, and not every Nord of Skyrim supports the Stormcloaks. What about those loyal to the Empire? Do they get a say?

This is because of Ulfric's selfish ambition and unsatiable desire for the position of High King. Skyrim would surely fall apart if Ulfric and his rebellion succeeded in the Civil War.
