Just making conspiracy theories here, but maybe the dragons in Atmora and the dragons from Akavir are two separate species, the former being kinder, more benevolent dragons, and the Akaviri dragons, after being driven out by the Tsaerci, became excessively violent, distrustful creatures, were well suited to being tyrannical overlords over Tamriel. All the dragons seen in Tamiel are of Akaviri origin, thus explaining their dominant and violent nature. Because the Atmorans were accustomed to the friendlier variety, that is why they were able to live so closely with them in Atmora, to the extent of dragon priests being a bridge, not a slave, for the dragons. When they arrived in Tamriel, the Akaviri dragons were nearly identical in appearance to the Atmoran dragons, and found themselves sucked into god hood by the Nords. All the dragons found it as a welcome change to the constant hunting of dragons in Akavir. That means that in Atmora, there are dragons that exceed even Parthunaax in kindness and compassion, creating a land where the Dragonborn and Blades would never be welcome, as they are renowned dragonslayers. In fact, due to the relation between Atmorans and dragons, it is possible that the Daedra hold no power there, being unable to overpower the combined forces of Atmoran armies and dragons in cooperation.
