I mean, this is I think only the second time it's been mentioned in the manga but maybe a large part of why the mainland Eldians and the rest of the world hate/fear the Paradisers is because King Fritz's nuclear option, legions of colossal titans rampaging across the Earth, is a sword of damocles that the rest of the world very sincerely resents the Paradisers for hanging over the rest of the world.

Think about it this way, imagine we lived in a world where only one country had nuclear weapons and nobody else did. That'd be pretty scary, even if the country was totally isolationist like Paradis, just knowing that the United States, the Soviet Union, or what have you could end the world unilaterally with absolutely no recourse, most people would probably resent that, wouldn't you?

So yeah, King Fritz did sort of fuck over the Eldians left behind by creating this situation where the rest of the world will resent and hate the Eldians and then leaving the remainder out in the cold, and this is on top of the fact that Eldians are already feared for their "demon blood" because they are unlike all other human beings in existence because they turn into titans if exposed to, apparently, a titan shifter's spinal fluid.
