He's only slightly unstable, and wealth can buy him out of that. If not, there's always an iron fist or simply appeasement, its hardly as if the nation is full of criminal circles planning to kill the king and usurp his throne. And seeing how its a democracy, its pretty much a given that its going to have some instability .
Just noticed how much the map looks like a butchered GB. The only real difference is scotlands been maimed and there's an extra bit sticking out xD

Imperial administration
Elsweyr: In a quick and decisive move, with the hopes of garnering more support, the mounted horsemen who had been protecting the convoy and are now free are deployed to Torval, taking with them orders to prosecute the perpetrators of the previous drug induced orgy of violence to the fullest extent of Imperial law. The issue was unwisely left to fester by the Mane, and as a result the Imperials hope to gather support by proving that they are above the failings of the previous government. The perpetrators, who had been left without a trial, are given a trial in which all received 20 years imprisonment, or an alternative 20,000 Septim fine. This is quickly announced and spread by many local news letters. In addition, the Empire has called for an instant end to all hostiles between the people. Not wishing a repeat of Skyrim, they call for all sides to come to the table. Governor-Millitant Alexander hopes that, at the very least, the independence movements will be fractured and he will be able to tarnish peoples hopes in the cause through that manner. The Empire calls for all loyal citizens to engage in debate and convince the separatists that the Empire is good for Elsweyr.
The Elsweyr administration has announced that, in the coming days, it will publish the reasons why it believes that Elsweyr should remain with the Empire in addition to what has only been deemed "Important information". It's clear that the Empire wishes to handle the situation peacefully, likely due to it's forcing already being run all over the place.
Imperial law enforcement: High Rock
Realising that it is unlikely the fractured High Rock kings will make a concentrated effort to bring the Pirate Lord Dupont to justice, the Imperial Legion is High Rock has decided to add a little more... Incentive. At the same time,four members of the Penitus Oculatus are tasked with the location of and elimination of Dupont, as well as the safe return of the Redguard sailors to their country. The few imperial naval vessels that could be spared have been deployed to the north to hunt down the Pirate lord
To all loyal citizens of the Empire and High Rock
By the standards of Imperial law, it is hereby decreed that a bounty of 8,000 Septims be placed on the head of the Pirate Lord Dupont. Should he be delivered alive, a sum of 9,000 Septims shall be paid
500 Septims per Man/Woman for the safe return of the Redguard Sailors
100 Septims per head of Duponts non-law abiding associates
Let it be known that all those who harbour or willingly with hold information pertaining to this individuals location or capture will be fined.

The Imperial legion stolled just before the end of the tree line, a few moving forwards to get a view of the harbour. The two members of the Penitus Oculatus moved forwards to the Legate and whispered in his ear. He nodded and the two agents loved.forwards slipping into the docks, avoiding the Thalmor guards. The legionairres waited for the signal, crouched down in the thicket.
The agents chosen had, naturally, both been elves. As a result, it had been relatively easy for them to sneak in once they concealed their armour with robes and posed as Thalmor mages. It took them nearly three hours to achieve their goal, keeping themselves out of the way of as many Thalmor as possible. At about 2:15 AM,, the signal was given. Two of the ships began to burn, and 20 Legion archers rose from the thicket moving forwards and setting their arrows alight before firing them at the dock, hopefully spreading more confusion. At that moment, the Equites rode forwards from behind the army, riding into the docks and tossing their javelins at the Thalmor as they rode by, circling to a void the Thalmor attacks. The two penitus Oculatus agents wisely fled from the scene. They were not primarily soldiers and it would be a waste for them to be lost in battle.
After tossing two Javelins a piece, the cavalry withdrew, and the legate signalled for the bosmer to launch arrows, as the Thalmor had by now mostly regained their senses. The legionairres in heavy armour marched forwards, forming an organised line before the forest, behind them their lightly armoured brethren waited, crouched down in the undergrowth for their turn to charge, waiting to draw the Thalmor into a trap. About two fifths of the battlemages waited with them, while another two fifths were with the heavily armoured legionairres, providing defense against Thalmor magic. The other fifth? They had mounted the back of some Equites horses, who had been riding through the woods around the perimeter and towards the sea, before following it, aimkng to attack from the flank once the Thalmor approached the main force.

There are only a hundred of them left, and the planet hit thing was implied to be surviving a crash. However, the complete immunity to cyber warfare has to go, it can be hard to hack them, but not impossible. The crippler lasers have to be toned down as well. With all that done, the other nations stand somewhat of a chance, but they are still powerful. Having a more powerful nation is often good, because it presents an actual challenge. If what I have mentioned is done, then accepted.
No, there's as 100000 of them left, as shown by this quote
"Being a still-growing civilization, the Scein has a military count of about one hundred thousand ships,"
That's waaaay to large considering all their individuals are each ships, and their ships are supposedly juggernaughts which have lasers powerful enough to wipe away ships without breaking a sweat as what seems to be a basic ship weapon
((Also its not so much the consuming dwarf planets that worries me, its that it makes it at least 2000+ miles in diameter and likely much, much larger. That is, unless its a length deconstruction process done piece by piece, but that doesn't seem to be what's implied).

The agents continued down the streets, meeting up near one of the corners near one of the cities presumable storage facilities. Checking that they were out of sight, they removed the grid of a nearby ventilation shaft and the units contorted into an unnatural position and slipped inside, snapping the vent back on behind them
The units inside the vent slinked through it for several minutes. Contrary to popular belief, most vents were too small for normal people, but the Umbrae Populus could contort their body in a freakish fashion, allowing them to slip through. One of them opened up the vent shaft below them, before dropping into the corridor below to check for hostiles. This units disguise of a young teenage woman girl would likely be most suspicious, so he planned to change it the moment he could into one that might seem less out of place inside this facility. Likewise, one of the units in the vent was disguised as an old man... And good luck explaining what someone who was nearly the end of their human life span and looked over a hundred years old was doing crawling through vents...
The unit looked both ways down the hall, including checking the doorway of their objective to check whether the coast was clear and that they would be able to escape with the resources

I'd advise a no. Whether the 100000 ship count is the population or not, that's about 99500 more than everyone else. Not to mention there are only a handful of factions with tech good enough to be a capable opponent at all in a one on one, not counting numbers, with everyone else getting their arses handed to them in terms of tech by your insanely large fleet of ships...
Not to mention, all 100000 can serve any purpose required and are essentially able to self replicate.
This would be like putting a man in an inflatable raft up against a fleet of warships.
Edit: Also, they are literally immune to cyber warefare
The crippler lasers will destroy the ships of the resurging and new races with ease. They'd need to outnumber you by hundreds, possibly tens of hundreds, to stand a chance at all
Your shields can apparently survive a planet being tossed at them. How are the resurging and new races meant to even get a shot in?
In other words, even the Supremes in their general deus ex machina glory would be unable to deal with you because you could dump tens of thousands of ships which are juggernaughts on them. Hell, even if we teamed up all the player nations, they wouldn't stand a hope in hell. -.-

Elsweyr
Until a new leader can be instated, the Imperial administration have taken over the running of Elsweyr and the legion have taken to the streets in hopes to avert any unrest
Valenwood
"Legionairres, follow me to glory!" Called the Legate, as he pointed his sword up to the bosmer. "Legionairres in front, Archer up back, battlemages on the sides, be ready for a fight"
The Emperors legionaries marched after the Legate, who in turn marched after the Bosmer that were leading them. The Archers had their arrows on hand and the legionaries had their swords at the ready. Something about this woods put them all on edge, as though they expected the Altmer to jump out at any moment... And they might not be too far from the truth is they expected this.
Summit
The Emperor nodded in response, and though he tried not to let it show, he was obviously crestfallen that only one of those he had invited had actually turned up
"Very well, let's begin. The Thalmor are a cunning an dangerous foe, and they are inevitably the foe of all the races of men, that much is certain. And being a cunning foe, they watch and wait for their time, their opportunity to strike and cast us down, enslaving us. They will achieve this of we let them, that is inevitable also." The Emperor began, looking at them each in turn "Are we to let them? Or will the races of men... And indeed in the case of the Bretons, the various kingdoms, take their blades from each others throats and turn them to the Thalmor. That means no damned pirates raiding the Redguards and no personal vendetta's in High Rock. High rock must look like easy pickings to the elves, and we all know if they get their chance they will destroy all your kingdoms, duchys or republics. But if we turn our blades to them, then the tables have turned. If we can get the Nords and the Redguards as well, then the Thalmor will no longer be looking at little warring nations with a grin, but at the united armies of half a continent. The high elves stare down at us past their perfumed noses, thinking that they are better than us, they hate us... But together, we can give them a reason for hate. When Summerset falls, when the elves are crushed, when the Aldmeri dominion lies in tatters... Then we can return to our petty conflicts, if they mean that much"
