What would be the fate of the Cardassian Union if they remained loyal to the Dominion during the war?

The sole purpose of the Dominion is control of the solids through any means necessary. Most of the time that means subjugation. We see this happen many times. Remember the female changeling says she would have promised the Alpha Quadrant to the Breen if it would help win the war? She had no intention of actually making good on that promise. They also tried to placate the Federation by offering a peace treaty. They partnered with the Cardassians but treated their citizens like canon fodder. Regardless if they won the war, if Cardassia had stay aligned with the Dominion they would have ended up the victims of genocide or at the very least forced into subjugation. The goal of the Founders is to avoid persecution by complete domination of the solids.
