The Septim Empire is all about trade and the economy, that is what the Daggerfall Covenant want, their ideologies are almost exactly the same. The Ebonheart Pact want glory and honour, which Tiber Septim didn't stand for, doing such things as awakening Dwemer god-like machines and forcing abortions and other lovely things. Tiber Septim didn't do what the Ebonheart would want him to do and instead did what the Daggerfall Cove wanted independently from any of the factions in the first place.
