Gridania is kind of in a weird place compared to the other two starter cities.
Limsa and Ul'dah both have shady and bloodied histories but, as the MSQ progresses, are working to make right their past wrongs.
Gridania really hasn't done that. Due to the calamity, the elementals are weaker then they were in 1.x, meaning they can't use the Greenwrath, so the threat of being disintegrated is gone and that's pretty much it. They're the only nation to not only have problems with a beast tribe, the Ixal, but with two playable race clans, the Duskwight Elezen and the Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te, and will not allow Ala Mhigan refugees into the city proper.
It kind of feels like the writing team "forgot" about these things so Gridania could be "the nature waifu" place. :B
