I take it that you never played the Imperial Legion questline. If you did, you'd know that the Empire is preparing for war with the Thalmor, they just wanted to end the Skyrim civil war first. They accepted the Concordat, yes, but they know a Second Great War is coming. After all, the Thalmor want to wipe/enslave out humanity and the Empire is mostly human.

And you should read the caption under my Imperial Legion flag, I support the Septim Empire from the previous TES games, not the Mede Empire. I'll play as both sides in Skyrim since I don't really support either, sometimes I don't play as either. My current character is in the Legion, thought my previous one was a Stormcloak.
