According to the latest episode his reasons for doing this are:

-) He can't stand the royal family as a whole since they united the people of Vers by telling them to be jealous of them (because of the natural resources on earth and the culture) and to hate them. From the looks of it their great emphasis on terrans being inferior is just an attempt to cover up the fact that they are even more inferior since they don't have anything except the Aldnoah and the technology made using it. And when that couldn't work anymore the royal family sent the Orbital knights crazy and to attack earth to distract from the internal problems.

-) He himself is jealous of the terrans since they have everything the people of Vers don't have: Proper food of all kinds, a long history and culture, having (most) resources in abundance and much more. And that terrans accept having such an abundance as totally normal and that the "look down on" Vers by sending relief supplies such as meat which are luxury food there. Normal food on Vers is made of Algae and Krill

-) His fiancee seems to have been killed by terrans (or got caught up in heaven's fall)

So seriously, he sure doesn't know how to get priorities straight.

This method would lead to a much better result and also get him his revenge:

1) Get a bunch of OrbitalKnights to follow you and form a team to do a Coup Detat and make it look like some OrbitalKnight has done it, preferrably one that was FOR the war against earth. That way the emperor will become a martyr and the people of Vers will turn against the ones who supported the war.

2) Let the princess do her thing. With the death of her grandfather "by the hands" of someon who supported the war she will be even more determined to prevent a war from happening. And since she is apparently the only heir to the throne (nobody else appears to be alive any more) she will become the empress.

3) As the empress she will gradually improve the relationship between Earth and Vers, creating trade relations. Earth helps Vers with whatever Resources they need and in exchange Vers provides Earth with Aldnoah-based technlology.

4) Since everyone goes along very well it is the PERFECT opportunity to settle a score

If Saazbaum did it that way he would have gotten his revenge against the emperor who stupidely started this mess and to add insult to injury he also made his death the foundation of the peace he opposed to keep his empire in line.

Letting the princess rule Vers would also improve relations between Earth and Vers leading to an improvement in Vers as well.

And since he was a hero who found the "culprit" behind the assassination he also has all the authority he will ever need to track down the ones who are responsible for the death of his fiancee.

Oh, and regarding his Kataphrakt:

Something is telling me that in season 2, Slaine might end up piloting it due to some circumstances.
