except when you just became a new country with no allies to call for, damaged from the dragons and the war with the empire, damaged reputation with most of tamriel aswell, hatred for all things magic so they are going just going to wing it against mages.

freedom for the nords you mean.the stormcloaks are doing it for nords and talos who was a nord. do they give a duck about everybody else no to them the empire is holding them down now they think they can do it on their own.

skyrim was the land of elves and men originally but the nords think it only belongs to them no wonder most races think little of them.
