    Except they have been explained Valmonte. You just missed it. It wasn't the goblins who stopped trading with the city-states but the other way around. Sylphs and Goblins and Qiqirn were all in the city until Ul'dah turned them out when the Empire attacked trying to kill the beast tribes. It was simultaneously a way to help try to remove the target from their backs as well as reduce competition for their wares.

    Goblins are not aggressive because they don't summon primals. Only the beastmen that summon primals will aggro you. The rest don't. To find out why, I suggest you go back and watch the cutscenes and really pay attention this time.

    the goblins in Limsa still do bussiness and im pretty sure it was City State(s). the Qiqirn in uldah that sells you illegal ware's would disagree with your other wise fine assessment of lore and the sylph have been aiding the gridanian for awhile now. now i don't know about you but thats confusing as hell.

    Yes the Qiqirn in Uldah are ILLEGAL that's the point.

    Yes, I never said that Limsa turned away the beast tribes, Ul'dah did. But you don't see, Kobolds or Sahagin around Limsa do you? Or Ixal in Gridania? There aren't even any Sylph NPCs outside the main story quests.

    Well, all the cutscenes are up on Youtube. and also a lot of the lore is on the website. I suggest you watch and read, because it's all there. I think that's where most of your confusion lies.
