The peaceful reunification of Romulus and Vulcan brought about by future-Spock.

I think Nero is trying to prevent the original 5 year mission from occurring.

Nero is trying to alter the timeline back to the way it was in the original series because he thinks JJ ruined Star Trek. He doesn't like the Apple Store look.

Nero longs for the linoleum bridge with computer screens that don't work.

Seems that Nero's plans have backfired. Maybe now "Star Trek XII: So Very Tired" won't get made after all...
