the irony is of all is if you play the three different faction story lines in ESO Queen Ayrenn feels like the best pick for the throne. and Shares a more Colovian lime Cosmopolitan view. For starters she went out and traveled the different lands and got to know the people some of the more "fun storries about her include that she sailed as first mate with a pirate captain from Anvil, disguised herself as a Dunmer in order to read the Indigo Scrolls in the vaults of Necrom, bested the Dervishes of Rihad at their own sword-dance, and outdrank Queen Mabjaarn Flame-Hair of Windhelm in a mead-slamming contest. she never says discouraging things about the other races and shows and genuinely respects the traditions of the people in the First Dominion. with the exception of some choice words she has about her own people's attitudes

@@arcanefelinethis is a fan theory that’s been spread so much it’s basically accepted as canon, but there is NO evidence that undoing Mundus is actually possible in this way or that the majority Thalmor see this as the end goal. And Men do NOT ascend to Aetherius and become divine according to Altmer. Men are inherently different to Mer, not descended from the divine Aedra but instead they are children of traitor Lorkhan, the mortal god the missing god, trickster, etc. And so the only way to ascend from the mortal realm and return to their divine ancestors is to destroy Mankind which is necessarily bound to the mortal plane ^^^ again ALL of this plan is a fan theory extrapolated from very little in-game evidence and taken as scripture by way too many well-meaning fans. And of course I oversimplified everything as well, we could go back to Anu and Padomay and I’d argue that just like in our real universe the forces of Padomay, those of change and chaos, are inherent all existence and fighting those forces in favor of some primordial stasis is delusional at best. Elves fear change and work to undo it or keep it at bay while yearning for some likely imaginary past where they existed as divines. Humans fear change too but more often embrace it and use it to their advantage given their shorter lives which results in a more padomaic outlook on the world. As someone who lives in a real universe (as real as we can know) that is consistently observed to tend towards chaos rather than order or stasis, the Elves are trying to achieve something that was never meant to be, in every Kalpa chaos begins creation and without this chaos there is no new Kalpa there is no reality but there is also likely no Aetherius since all of these realms are tied to the Aurbis which is reset every Kalpa as far as we know Ok that was the deepest TES metaphysics rabbit hole I’ve sunk myself into in a while, but I hope it kinda makes sense what I’m trying to say.
@@lukasp5892 fair enough. One of the multitude of reasons I love TES is this abundance of lore and fan theories. But sometimes people take things too far, lol.
They think like Sid Meier's Civilizations games AI, denounce other nations for being at war, even if it's a defensive war that they never wanted to be in, then declare war on the nation they just denounced. Next thing you know they'll be claiming that they're pacifists while building a nuclear arsenal that could wipe out the planet...

Altmer - “We’re the best to rule Tamriel! We should conquer all of it!” Bosmer - “Oh gods, you’re not dragging us into this again.” Dunmer - “That’s dumb! You’re dumb! Fighting the humans always fails! Be like us and chill instead.”
@@asteroidalassassin6949 Yes. They also enslaved orcs, khajiit, argonians, and elves, including other dark elves. The Dunmer were equal opportunity employers of prisoners with jobs. Of course, so weren’t the Altmer, and at least with the Dunmer they didn’t tend to torture their slaves like the Ayleid high elves did. Also, despite some houses’ tendency to use slaves, the dark elves were never imperialists like high elves often tend to be.
I honestly think the Thalmor corrupted the Aldmeri Dominion and turned it away from what it was intended to be. I get a feeling Ayrenn intended the Aldmeri Dominion to be akin to what the vulcan are to humans in Star Trek: Enterprise (the only Star Trek show I watched willingly with my mom and I am not a Star Trek fan by any means), which was guides, advisors, and counselors who helped humanity as if humanity were like a little brother. The Thalmor seem to me to be the ones who are keen on keeping wounds open and seek to punish humans that were not around (and thus not responsible for what happened) for the Warp of the West and Tiber Septim's conquest and becoming Talos.
Iirc you're generally right. The third Aldmeri Dominion is a reboot of a reboot and was distilled down to an extremist group. It's why the Psijics separated during the first or second iterations and why The Mythic Dawn became a thing I think. The Third Dominion is supposedly generally disliked by Altmer society (remember they call themselves *Aldmeri* to distinguish themselves from the latter generations of Altmer to justify including Khajiit and Bosmer who remain relatively unchanged) and they've essentially supplanted the throne in Alinor with the supposition that they're doing their race a service by patrolling Tamriel and essentially being "peacekeepers". Note, I'm secretly in love with the Altmer, but I sure af couldn't say in good conscience that deserve anything less than total humiliation, defeat and dissolution. Just saying.
@@poochyenajones1362 Possibly, but like I said, I am not a Star Trek fan. Despite willingly watching Star Trek: Enterprise, I have only watched a handful of episodes with my mom. I have not seen many of the episodes dealing with the Romulans to make that comparison.
@@NOHTenma I have heard a little about that. I think it was during the second iteration of the Aldmeri Dominion that the Psijic Order separated because in ESO their region is still technically part of the Summerset Isles. As for the Mythic Dawn, I have limited knowledge of them as I have not played Oblivion yet. I only know that they are responsible for the Oblivion Crisis and got Uriel Septim killed. I like playing as an Altmer myself in the Elder Scrolls series. My character in Skyrim thinks that the Thalmor are rotten apples that have spoiled the bunch and have given Altmer a very bad name, especially in the region of Skyrim where she was born. I will admit Altmer are easy to write as butt monkeys due to the stereotype that they are usually seen as being (haughty and in need of some lessons in humility and humbleness).
I definitely feel a lot for Ayrenn. I feel like she genuinely looked at her her own people and saw their potential in being effective, powerful, and benevolent rulers of Tamriel. She was just very lonely when it came to getting support from her own race, which was supposed to be the forefront of the Dominion. It mostly feels like she had the potential to be one of the greatest rulers in Tamriel, but her dreams of her Dominion just kinda fell through because her own people did not share her dream. I may be biased because I like the Aldmeri questline more than the Pact's or Covenant's (and is the only one that I've finished), but I still feel like she was the better of the alternatives at the time.
No. We've already seen a Tamriel under the rule of elves: Fractured and squabbling, more often than not driven apart by their own religious prejudices and physical differences, and their unwillingness to mingle. Despite the elves' deeper wisdom and capacity for magical warfare, it was their disharmony and deeply ingrained superiority complex that did them in time and again: The Snow Elves, despite living in relative peace with the Nords for some time, ultimately decided to place their desires over the lives of those living in Sarthaal and paid a terrible price for it. The Ayleids represent the other extreme: They allowed their worship of the daedra to justify the sadistic torture, sacrifice and slavery of those they saw as lesser than themselves. And like the Snow Elves, they paid the price. The Chimer and their Dark Elf descendants, under the guidance of daedra and demigods, enslaved generation upon generation of beastfolk. And when Dunmer society was rocked by a string of natural and unnatural disasters, when they needed mercy and compassion the most, there was little goodwill to be found from their neighbors to the west, and certainly NONE from the south. And then of course there's the Dwemer: Perhaps the zenith of elfkind's capacity for arrogance and cruelty. They may not have had the same impact as the Ayleids, but they are a textbook example of those undone by their own hubris and delusions of godhood. Men and beastfolk aren't perfect by any means, and are guilty of many of the same sins as elves, but at the end of the day, they've simply proven themselves more willing to coexist and build up what they have, as opposed to claiming by force what others do, be it land, freedom or lives.
@@mattaffenit9898 No. The Snow Elves paid in full for Sarthaal and then some. And Summerset isn't just one big Thalmor moshpit: There are those living there that despise the Dominion.
@@Scotttjt given the various references to purges and camps in the domion id say all altmer in summerset all very enthusiastically and openly suport the thalmor those that dont are dead or left. Any opposition to the current leaders is likely very quite

22:29 This is literally the point, each race has the capability to only rule over their own. Any and all attempts at assimiliation of the other races through intricate peace treaties or outright conquest through martial superiority ALWAYS leads to bloodshed and war. The one and only inevitable truth is that eventually all the races of Nirn will experience some sort of Ragnarok at the end of all times, and the souls of everyone residing upon the Mundus will seperate into their respective Anuic and Padomaic origins, leading to both Mundus and Aetherius collapsing and rejoing the primordial, cosmic amoebas of pure power that are Anu and Padomay.

You can color me impressed that I was on my phone as soon as the notification that this video was uploaded showed up, yet there were already 10 comments and 24 likes by the time it pulled up. Keep up the solid content that inspires such dedication lads
The Mer are pretty ruthless to others and even their own but maybe the High Elves (non-Thalmor) are able to rule Tamriel as peacefully as it can be. Still, the Septim Empire did a fine job uniting all of Tamriel. Violent conquests but mostly peaceful government.
The War of the Red Diamond, the Invasion of the Continent of Akavir, etc all happened under the Septim Empire. It wasn't a peaceful, totally great time...
Given the Mer cultures'track records, they have no business whining about the viciousness or barbarity of Men. Let's face it, Tamriel is marred by the primal discord between Anu and Padomay-it's not a peaceful world. Conflict is inherent in its cosmic source code.
That's perhaps the biggest detriment to the elven capability of ruling tamriel They wish to inflict anu's perfect unchaging order unto the house of sithis itself, they see themselves as superiors for not bending to the ever changing nature of mundus, and yet they are the most changed by it. They wage wars, enslave, and genocide no more and no less than men but they are blinded by righteousness to their own contradictions
The High Elves seem more likely to oppress than gently govern. I would hope that one day an ecumenical and peaceful government could emerge without the xenophobia that plagued Nirn for so long. The Cyrodillic Empires are as close as we've come thus far.... And I often play as Elves. Usually as a cosmopolitan Bosmer who doesn't follow the green pact.
Well, at least they didn't conquer they provinces by force like septim empire did. AD history less oppressive in general and not built on genocide and betrayals. It d be highly interesting how d they rule without 4E thalmor.
Ahh so I was driving home from work and put this on my blue tooth to listen while I drive, and a lady pulled out infront of me. Everyone is ok, and both cars are drivable, it just sucks. After the dust settled I was able to have Drews calm, relaxing voice to help me relax, and help me forget about my problems for at least twenty minutes Thank you Drew, sometimes all I need is a reprieve from the stress of life.
I think it was a small group from among the snow elves that actually were responsible for the night of tears. Sadly, the whole race suffered for the crimes of the few.
Yeah I feel like that’s a theme with the elves, with all of the chimer becoming dunmer for the actions of the tribunal and the Dwemer disappearing with the actions of just kagrenac
No way it's a small group. Saarthal was the largest human settlement in Skyrim where even the Falmers were wary of their growing numbers. The slaughter would've taken an army, instead of an extremist group.
The elves as a whole? No. Ayrenn as empress though? That I might be okay with. She's a good egg. Though only if she rules not as an enforcer of elven supremacy but as a protector of all races.
She would be, if she had been put on the throne. Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if it was eventually made canon the Thalmor prevented her from obtaining the throne
ah, this was a great one! I play AD in ESO... but sometimes I'm not so sure about Queen Ayrenn becoming empress. Then I look at the center of the Planemeld above the White-Gold tower, and I am reminded... the Three-Banners War is not a war that strives for lasting peace. It is a war of endless domination.
I love playing as a high elf and seeming like the only chill one willing to get their hands dirty and help people and astonishing people getting them to consider their stereotypes. Battlemage with summon blades.
I like to point out that the Aldmeri Dominion in Skyrim is the third incarnation of such an organization. The third Dominion.... Well that explains the Gestapo Squads rounding up all the Talos worshippers.
As humans, let's kick some Thalmor ass with steel plate boots. There is no better material than steel. I love it. Thou i like the silver-sword design the most

Video suggestion: What kind of life is waiting for the Dragonborn after death? We know what kind of afterlives exist, but after swearing your soul to all kinds of stuff and going through all the questlines, which aedra and daedra would have the strongest claims, and work the hardest to get you?
@@mattaffenit9898 I just watched through their video on what happens when you die, and they don't say. They list a lot of options, but don't say what happens specifically to the Dragonborn, who is qualified for many of them.
The mer are wise, the men are strong. The leadership of Tanriel should lay in the balance of the two, just as the Aurbis exists in the balance of Anu's stasis and Padomay's change.
I have a soft spot for the altmer. I get their perspective. Long life spans, and a culture that emphasizes that they are descendents of something greater and divine. And a longing to return back to where they came from. Aliens on this false reality of nirn. Their architecture is amazing, everyone is so pristine and clean and beautiful. Also queen ayrenn. Aside from her being voiced by kate beckinsale who has an amazing voice, I liked her and Raz. Sadly... Altmer hearts as a whole throughout the ages are clouded with evil. Hope to see good elves taking over. Also want to see more psijic order in future games. They're so cool.
Plus, not all of them are like this. An Altmer Legate in the imperial legion hates the thalmor and saw other Altmers get massacred for opposing the thalmor. He’s stationed in skyrim to keep a watch on them

This video actually intrigued me for as soon as I saw it I started thinking about all the possibilities that would happen like the court system and new laws that the elves would bring to the land of Tamriel I find this topic interesting for I saw the court system is based on the elves own biases and how unfair it would be for the other none elf races but that's where the imagination begins because we don't know the answer and it's up only to the interpretation of the topic
@michel durant Microsoft might 😬 Even then it would be cool to have some interim game that would be another Warp in the... World. Elven Rule; a la The Hidden City mod play. The player has to keep repeating the same time frame to figure out how it happened and how to stop it, just with more budget money and engine thrust. It's a pointless "wtf" game to tide us over until TESVI
@michel durant I know you most likely don’t actually think like this- elder scrolls fans just have this weird complex where they act like they believe these things- but it’s obvious and proven that your statement is false.
The easiest argument against elvish rule is a fact. If elves ever where ment to rule there unity and their kingdoms would never have fallen by the repeating interference of gods. The elven gods don't smile upon them. They punish them at every possible point.
lets not pretend the gods aren't malevolent and egocentric. Only doing things in order to be worshipped and kept powerful. these elves are a direct threat to their godhood, they have a goal of reclaiming their true place.
Well not the Bosmer they've survived many thousands of years and where never destroyed by the Gods also I don't think all Bosmer agree/ally with the Thalmor. Also my 4 favorite races are: Argonion, Orc, Bosmer, Khajit
Morrigan KASA The Bosmer were getting massacred by the Thalmor. They must be really brain dead if they think allying with the Thalmor would do them any good
True. Yes the Elves have had their wrongdoings and their BS problems, but for all their worth, they rarely ever actually start wars themselves (perhaps the Direnni may have, after a while, but only amongst themselves, and the Bretons haven't exactly stopped it) Think about it; what major contributions did Humans make in the early Era's of Tamriel? Most all Governments and Provinces can trace their systems and foundations upon Elven sophistication. The Empire now? It was built upon what the Aylieds had established. High Rock? Elven dominance built it up to what it is today. Morrowind? Always has been Elves. Only case where civilization has flourished without Mer are the Beast Races. They have their own things going on, but Humans? Bottom of the pile. Other than the Nords, who slaughtered every Snow Elf they came across, they built up their own stuff, but even then, they only ever got the chance to settle Skyrim since the Snow Elves let them into their province in the first place. Technically, the humans were the ones who kept on coming to Tamriel since they screwed up their own Continents, if you look at history.

@@jimothyjimmz8372 sorta. Just say'n. Let's try going by nature's rules for once. No race superiority, stop being petty (revenge plotting), one can have borders or territory.
The elves are consumed by jealousy for the races of men. See it's all about the difference in weaponry, the elves have short and slender swords while the swords of men are heavy and long. The snow elves in particular had legendarily short and thin swords, more like daggers with a rapier blade while the mighty warriors of Atmora wielded huge blades that were not only long but girthy as well. It didn't take long for the snow eleven women to take notice of these mighty Nedic blades and they longed to wield them but alas snow eleven smithing was simply not up to these expectations so consumed by jealousy they tried to drive the Atmorans away unfortunately Ysgramor, whose sword was particularly massive, managed to escape and return with 500 of the warriors of Atmora who wielded enormous blades of incredible rigidity and the snow elves fell to their knees and were subsequently dominated by these ancient men. The Aeliads were similarly disadvantaged against the superior forge mastery of men and their incredible blades and tried to enslave men in the hopes of using these massive weapons for their own ends, they too were unable to handle the weight or width of human blades and ultimately fell afoul of Pellinial Whitestrake who wielded the most massive sword the world had ever seen, so powerful was he that it was said that his blade constantly throbbed with untold power. Of course there's the left handed elves who followed the snow elves and aelieds in their envious ways and found that they were no match for the mighty curved blades of the Redguard. And now we have the Thalmor who are rumored to have the weakest swords that tamriel has ever seen, thin and brittle immitations of swords really. The Thalmor noticed in the years leading up to the great war that many Aldmeri women were leaving the summerset isles and learning the fine art of sword play from the various races of men, they had learned how to properly handle the incredible swords of humanity and would simply never consider using the fragile blades of the Thalmor. So the Thalmor attacked the empire and tried to destroy mankind only to fall prey to the long, heavy, powerful blades of men in the battle of the red ring and were forced to retreat only to be savaged for the next 10 years by the thick curved blades of the Redguard. Soon the Thalmor will feel the full length and bear the enormous weight of the superior swords of men as Imperials, Redguards, and Nords bring their incredible weapons and mastery with them to the summerset isles, the Thalmor will be driven to their hands and knees and made to beg for release from the savage pounding that they will receive courtesy of a variety of swords from the triumphant armies of men.
The Empire’s shit now. If only Martin Septim hadn’t chosen to be a fucking priest and gotten laid at some point in his life. He saved Tamriel only to potentially doom his family’s legacy.
From Stormcloak to imperial, let us set our differences asside and let us kick Thalmor asses together as one. They deserve it. They are the true enemy. And a reason why We( i am mostly Khajiit thou) want to go away from the empire. Plus the ban of Talos worshipping.

@brmbly cleansing? Do you mean genocide? If yes then I agree its wrong. Otherwise people can have their opinions. And you must remember that whats your right doesnt mean its their right. There is no one universal right belief.
The better question is "should the dragonborn (aka me) rule all of tamriel?" and the answer is yes. By the end of skyrim nobody alive can stop me, so why fight for the either empire or the stormcloaks when i could just take over the world by myself? And i mean *by myself*, i don't even need an army by that point.

I finished the DawnGuard DLC yesterday and this time I paid attention and I must say I felt sad at the Snow Elves story. I know they attacked the Nords at Saarthal but does that give the Nords the right to exterminate an entire race? I found myself asking the question, if I were in the Snow Elves position what would I do when an alien race rocked up and started taking over my homeland.
@michel durant ..I'm not saying the Thalmor are right in their thinking. I just think its a whole bundle of complication which has no right or wrong answer.
It was their land, they were very tolerant before the attack on Saarthal. And I don't know much about it (except that Tamriel has the "unreliable narrator"), but I bet the nords provoked them into it. Other than the Ayleids being obviously (mostly) evil to the core and the Dunmer having their slave trade, I can't see where "all elves evil" comes from. (I'm a Dunmer supremacist but I can see why others wouldn't want them ruling...)
@@Aethuviel It was the Snow Elves’ land first and they were tolerable of the Nords firstly. And the truth is, we don’t know what truly happened at Sarthal. Personally, I believe what we see in game is likely merely what was told by Ysgramor- Nord “propaganda.” History is written by the victors after all. In fact, I’ve seen videos Scott theories that the Snow Elves didn’t attack the Nords at all. And the fact we now know the Eye of Magnus was there during that time... We definitely don’t have the complete picture.
Everyone blames the Nords, but not the Dwemer. Wtf. You all do know that the Falmer survived well beyond Ysgramor's time, right? They warred countless times with the Nords over centuries, and kept losing, until finally, the Snow Prince fell at the Moesring. Even after that length of time, there were enough surviving Snow Elves to seek refuge with a far crueler neighbour. I honestly doubt Ysgramor even committed genocide. The kings after him? Maybe, but everyone seems to wrongly assume all the Falmer were gone by the time Ysgramor's own life and reign was over, which simply is not true.
@@356MONKEYMAN , it's called "genocide" when ur kind is killed because of ur ethnicity, especially if nords killed around 85% of them no matter kids or women. And going by this logic nords also deserve good old genocide because they did exactly the same "Saarthal" to the dunmer having no reason for it besides "why not?". Obviously they used it as excuse to conquer land and get rid of the locals. Dwemer were real dickheads though.
Examples of the elves being terrible rulers 1.The Ayleids 2.The Thalmor 3.The Dwemer and what they did to the Falmer 4. The Dunmer and their treatment of the Argonians. Honestly I'd rather be ruled by the crack cats or the talking trees and their LSD lizards.
The reason why the imperials were such good rulers was due to the fact that they didn’t claim supremacy. They treated all races basically equally. While yes, imperials maintained most leadership positions, but that just comes with the capital being in Cyrodill. The Aldmer would never let anyone else lead, and never treat anyone equally. They’d make man and beast slaves, and probably wipe out the orcs.
Most of them. Yes. But Queen Ayrenn in ESO is really not like that. She wanted all the races to coexist peacefully. She even punished elves who claimed supremacy over other races.
@@jakunosek The actions of one individual are not applicable to their entire species. Exceptional individuals exist in every species; just as not every Imperial will achieve CHIM and become a god, not every Altmer will be Queen Ayrenn.
@@jakunosek she was way better than others but lets not fool ourselves, she did indeed claim that the races of men are children and the elves should take the crown. Thats literally racism.

The Asur of Warhammer Fantasy, would be dissapointed in these Thalmor, they do not wish to bother the other races except for trading, they do not care about the other races dealing and conflicts and do not want to take over Za Warudo, they simply want to live in peace in thier continent, however they are ready for war should it break out, they will not make the same mistake their ancestors did when the First Chaos invasion commenced
the irony is of all is if you play the three different faction story lines in ESO Queen Ayrenn feels like the best pick for the throne. and Shares a more Colovian lime Cosmopolitan view. For starters she went out and traveled the different lands and got to know the people some of the more "fun storries about her include that she sailed as first mate with a pirate captain from Anvil, disguised herself as a Dunmer in order to read the Indigo Scrolls in the vaults of Necrom, bested the Dervishes of Rihad at their own sword-dance, and outdrank Queen Mabjaarn Flame-Hair of Windhelm in a mead-slamming contest. she never says discouraging things about the other races and shows and genuinely respects the traditions of the people in the First Dominion. with the exception of some choice words she has about her own people's attitudes

Is it really "destruction" if it results in all Mer and Men becoming divine and joining their ancestors in Aetherius?
@@arcanefelinethis is a fan theory that’s been spread so much it’s basically accepted as canon, but there is NO evidence that undoing Mundus is actually possible in this way or that the majority Thalmor see this as the end goal.
And Men do NOT ascend to Aetherius and become divine according to Altmer. Men are inherently different to Mer, not descended from the divine Aedra but instead they are children of traitor Lorkhan, the mortal god the missing god, trickster, etc. And so the only way to ascend from the mortal realm and return to their divine ancestors is to destroy Mankind which is necessarily bound to the mortal plane
^^^ again ALL of this plan is a fan theory extrapolated from very little in-game evidence and taken as scripture by way too many well-meaning fans. And of course I oversimplified everything as well, we could go back to Anu and Padomay and I’d argue that just like in our real universe the forces of Padomay, those of change and chaos, are inherent all existence and fighting those forces in favor of some primordial stasis is delusional at best.
Elves fear change and work to undo it or keep it at bay while yearning for some likely imaginary past where they existed as divines.
Humans fear change too but more often embrace it and use it to their advantage given their shorter lives which results in a more padomaic outlook on the world.
As someone who lives in a real universe (as real as we can know) that is consistently observed to tend towards chaos rather than order or stasis, the Elves are trying to achieve something that was never meant to be, in every Kalpa chaos begins creation and without this chaos there is no new Kalpa there is no reality but there is also likely no Aetherius since all of these realms are tied to the Aurbis which is reset every Kalpa as far as we know

To be fair, they got deus ex machina'd by a damn terminator blessed by the gods themselves.
Men are better than mer, but the Dark Elves are the best mers
@Wirr Ling because their lifespans are shorter
that wasn't REAL Ayleid Superiority.
Altmer - “We’re the best to rule Tamriel! We should conquer all of it!”
Bosmer - “Oh gods, you’re not dragging us into this again.”
Dunmer - “That’s dumb! You’re dumb! Fighting the humans always fails! Be like us and chill instead.”
Dunmer- here drink this.
@@FallenRingbearer Khajiit- Here, this one asks that you smoke this.
Didn't they enslave humans in Morrrowind?
@@asteroidalassassin6949 Yes. They also enslaved orcs, khajiit, argonians, and elves, including other dark elves. The Dunmer were equal opportunity employers of prisoners with jobs.
Of course, so weren’t the Altmer, and at least with the Dunmer they didn’t tend to torture their slaves like the Ayleid high elves did. Also, despite some houses’ tendency to use slaves, the dark elves were never imperialists like high elves often tend to be.
Dunmer are nowhere near the powerhouse the Altmer are and have their own shit to deal with, they're not "chill"
I honestly think the Thalmor corrupted the Aldmeri Dominion and turned it away from what it was intended to be. I get a feeling Ayrenn intended the Aldmeri Dominion to be akin to what the vulcan are to humans in Star Trek: Enterprise (the only Star Trek show I watched willingly with my mom and I am not a Star Trek fan by any means), which was guides, advisors, and counselors who helped humanity as if humanity were like a little brother. The Thalmor seem to me to be the ones who are keen on keeping wounds open and seek to punish humans that were not around (and thus not responsible for what happened) for the Warp of the West and Tiber Septim's conquest and becoming Talos.
By that logic you can almost say that Thalmor are like the Romulans of The Elder Scrolls.
Iirc you're generally right. The third Aldmeri Dominion is a reboot of a reboot and was distilled down to an extremist group. It's why the Psijics separated during the first or second iterations and why The Mythic Dawn became a thing I think. The Third Dominion is supposedly generally disliked by Altmer society (remember they call themselves *Aldmeri* to distinguish themselves from the latter generations of Altmer to justify including Khajiit and Bosmer who remain relatively unchanged) and they've essentially supplanted the throne in Alinor with the supposition that they're doing their race a service by patrolling Tamriel and essentially being "peacekeepers".
Note, I'm secretly in love with the Altmer, but I sure af couldn't say in good conscience that deserve anything less than total humiliation, defeat and dissolution.
Just saying.
@@poochyenajones1362 Possibly, but like I said, I am not a Star Trek fan. Despite willingly watching Star Trek: Enterprise, I have only watched a handful of episodes with my mom. I have not seen many of the episodes dealing with the Romulans to make that comparison.
@@NOHTenma I have heard a little about that. I think it was during the second iteration of the Aldmeri Dominion that the Psijic Order separated because in ESO their region is still technically part of the Summerset Isles. As for the Mythic Dawn, I have limited knowledge of them as I have not played Oblivion yet. I only know that they are responsible for the Oblivion Crisis and got Uriel Septim killed.
I like playing as an Altmer myself in the Elder Scrolls series. My character in Skyrim thinks that the Thalmor are rotten apples that have spoiled the bunch and have given Altmer a very bad name, especially in the region of Skyrim where she was born. I will admit Altmer are easy to write as butt monkeys due to the stereotype that they are usually seen as being (haughty and in need of some lessons in humility and humbleness).
@Nii Lantei Bright-Davies Which is unfortunate.
I definitely feel a lot for Ayrenn. I feel like she genuinely looked at her her own people and saw their potential in being effective, powerful, and benevolent rulers of Tamriel. She was just very lonely when it came to getting support from her own race, which was supposed to be the forefront of the Dominion. It mostly feels like she had the potential to be one of the greatest rulers in Tamriel, but her dreams of her Dominion just kinda fell through because her own people did not share her dream.
I may be biased because I like the Aldmeri questline more than the Pact's or Covenant's (and is the only one that I've finished), but I still feel like she was the better of the alternatives at the time.

No. We've already seen a Tamriel under the rule of elves:
Fractured and squabbling, more often than not driven apart by their own religious prejudices and physical differences, and their unwillingness to mingle. Despite the elves' deeper wisdom and capacity for magical warfare, it was their disharmony and deeply ingrained superiority complex that did them in time and again:
The Snow Elves, despite living in relative peace with the Nords for some time, ultimately decided to place their desires over the lives of those living in Sarthaal and paid a terrible price for it.
The Ayleids represent the other extreme: They allowed their worship of the daedra to justify the sadistic torture, sacrifice and slavery of those they saw as lesser than themselves. And like the Snow Elves, they paid the price.
The Chimer and their Dark Elf descendants, under the guidance of daedra and demigods, enslaved generation upon generation of beastfolk. And when Dunmer society was rocked by a string of natural and unnatural disasters, when they needed mercy and compassion the most, there was little goodwill to be found from their neighbors to the west, and certainly NONE from the south.
And then of course there's the Dwemer: Perhaps the zenith of elfkind's capacity for arrogance and cruelty. They may not have had the same impact as the Ayleids, but they are a textbook example of those undone by their own hubris and delusions of godhood.
Men and beastfolk aren't perfect by any means, and are guilty of many of the same sins as elves, but at the end of the day, they've simply proven themselves more willing to coexist and build up what they have, as opposed to claiming by force what others do, be it land, freedom or lives.
Anyone else wanna see Summerset burn as vengeance for Saarthal?

22:29 This is literally the point, each race has the capability to only rule over their own. Any and all attempts at assimiliation of the other races through intricate peace treaties or outright conquest through martial superiority ALWAYS leads to bloodshed and war. The one and only inevitable truth is that eventually all the races of Nirn will experience some sort of Ragnarok at the end of all times, and the souls of everyone residing upon the Mundus will seperate into their respective Anuic and Padomaic origins, leading to both Mundus and Aetherius collapsing and rejoing the primordial, cosmic amoebas of pure power that are Anu and Padomay.

Kinda weird, just heard some guy bellowed "REMAN" around the same time this video was uploaded....
The Mer are pretty ruthless to others and even their own but maybe the High Elves (non-Thalmor) are able to rule Tamriel as peacefully as it can be. Still, the Septim Empire did a fine job uniting all of Tamriel. Violent conquests but mostly peaceful government.
The War of the Red Diamond, the Invasion of the Continent of Akavir, etc all happened under the Septim Empire.
It wasn't a peaceful, totally great time...
there were MANY rebellions throughout the centuries of imperial rule, not peaceful at all
Given the Mer cultures'track records, they have no business whining about the viciousness or barbarity of Men. Let's face it, Tamriel is marred by the primal discord between Anu and Padomay-it's not a peaceful world. Conflict is inherent in its cosmic source code.
That's perhaps the biggest detriment to the elven capability of ruling tamriel
They wish to inflict anu's perfect unchaging order unto the house of sithis itself, they see themselves as superiors for not bending to the ever changing nature of mundus, and yet they are the most changed by it. They wage wars, enslave, and genocide no more and no less than men but they are blinded by righteousness to their own contradictions

@michel durant Microsoft might 😬
Even then it would be cool to have some interim game that would be another Warp in the... World. Elven Rule; a la The Hidden City mod play. The player has to keep repeating the same time frame to figure out how it happened and how to stop it, just with more budget money and engine thrust.
It's a pointless "wtf" game to tide us over until TESVI

The easiest argument against elvish rule is a fact. If elves ever where ment to rule there unity and their kingdoms would never have fallen by the repeating interference of gods. The elven gods don't smile upon them. They punish them at every possible point.
lets not pretend the gods aren't malevolent and egocentric. Only doing things in order to be worshipped and kept powerful. these elves are a direct threat to their godhood, they have a goal of reclaiming their true place.
Well not the Bosmer they've survived many thousands of years and where never destroyed by the Gods also I don't think all Bosmer agree/ally with the Thalmor. Also my 4 favorite races are: Argonion, Orc, Bosmer, Khajit
Morrigan KASA The Bosmer were getting massacred by the Thalmor. They must be really brain dead if they think allying with the Thalmor would do them any good
@@obijuanquenobi1911 right so like I was implying that the Bosmer are a decent elven race

Thalmor: Nooo mer are the most civilized and must rule Tamriel!
Ayleids: Haha flesh sculptures go brrrrr
True. Yes the Elves have had their wrongdoings and their BS problems, but for all their worth, they rarely ever actually start wars themselves (perhaps the Direnni may have, after a while, but only amongst themselves, and the Bretons haven't exactly stopped it)
Think about it; what major contributions did Humans make in the early Era's of Tamriel? Most all Governments and Provinces can trace their systems and foundations upon Elven sophistication.
The Empire now? It was built upon what the Aylieds had established. High Rock? Elven dominance built it up to what it is today. Morrowind? Always has been Elves.
Only case where civilization has flourished without Mer are the Beast Races. They have their own things going on, but Humans? Bottom of the pile.
Other than the Nords, who slaughtered every Snow Elf they came across, they built up their own stuff, but even then, they only ever got the chance to settle Skyrim since the Snow Elves let them into their province in the first place.
Technically, the humans were the ones who kept on coming to Tamriel since they screwed up their own Continents, if you look at history.

Just say'n. Let's try going by nature's rules for once. No race superiority, stop being petty (revenge plotting), one can have borders or territory.
Kou Her nature has no rules
The elves are consumed by jealousy for the races of men. See it's all about the difference in weaponry, the elves have short and slender swords while the swords of men are heavy and long. The snow elves in particular had legendarily short and thin swords, more like daggers with a rapier blade while the mighty warriors of Atmora wielded huge blades that were not only long but girthy as well. It didn't take long for the snow eleven women to take notice of these mighty Nedic blades and they longed to wield them but alas snow eleven smithing was simply not up to these expectations so consumed by jealousy they tried to drive the Atmorans away unfortunately Ysgramor, whose sword was particularly massive, managed to escape and return with 500 of the warriors of Atmora who wielded enormous blades of incredible rigidity and the snow elves fell to their knees and were subsequently dominated by these ancient men.
The Aeliads were similarly disadvantaged against the superior forge mastery of men and their incredible blades and tried to enslave men in the hopes of using these massive weapons for their own ends, they too were unable to handle the weight or width of human blades and ultimately fell afoul of Pellinial Whitestrake who wielded the most massive sword the world had ever seen, so powerful was he that it was said that his blade constantly throbbed with untold power.
Of course there's the left handed elves who followed the snow elves and aelieds in their envious ways and found that they were no match for the mighty curved blades of the Redguard.
And now we have the Thalmor who are rumored to have the weakest swords that tamriel has ever seen, thin and brittle immitations of swords really. The Thalmor noticed in the years leading up to the great war that many Aldmeri women were leaving the summerset isles and learning the fine art of sword play from the various races of men, they had learned how to properly handle the incredible swords of humanity and would simply never consider using the fragile blades of the Thalmor. So the Thalmor attacked the empire and tried to destroy mankind only to fall prey to the long, heavy, powerful blades of men in the battle of the red ring and were forced to retreat only to be savaged for the next 10 years by the thick curved blades of the Redguard.
Soon the Thalmor will feel the full length and bear the enormous weight of the superior swords of men as Imperials, Redguards, and Nords bring their incredible weapons and mastery with them to the summerset isles, the Thalmor will be driven to their hands and knees and made to beg for release from the savage pounding that they will receive courtesy of a variety of swords from the triumphant armies of men.
Sounds like real life, except the swords aren't swords and they're attached to people
You know how biased you sound, right?

@@Valencetheshireman927 considering their whole thing is not changing, probably not no
Honestly no one should rule tamriel, each state has the right to be free, thats the better option, no Empire and no supreme rulers, and now they dont have the nunidium nor someome like talos to maintain the land united under one name
When the nations are free, they fight and kill one another. When the Empire is in charge, people live (mostly) in peace. Of course, in an ideal world there would be no need for governments or rulers, and we'd all live as autonomous anarchic collectives; but neither Earth nor Mundus are ideal worlds.
Then who the fuck would secure the dragonfires?

Jimothy Jimmz The Altmer not tied to the dominion or college in Skyrim seem to be not treated as poorly. That one In Windhelm of all places herself said she was able to get a place of respect. Those two in Solitude seem ok. Dunmer don’t seem as lucky.
Personally I prefer the dark elves. Been through more so much tougher. I don’t like stone-fist or the gnisis owner, take each person as an individual. But the dunmer are half like that, half let’s just work hard. I’d play a dunmer before Altmer. Too haughty
No, Argonians are the ones who got so swole that they were able to pull a 'no u' during the Oblivion Crisis.

oh wait...
I finished the DawnGuard DLC yesterday and this time I paid attention and I must say I felt sad at the Snow Elves story. I know they attacked the Nords at Saarthal but does that give the Nords the right to exterminate an entire race? I found myself asking the question, if I were in the Snow Elves position what would I do when an alien race rocked up and started taking over my homeland.
@michel durant ..I'm not saying the Thalmor are right in their thinking. I just think its a whole bundle of complication which has no right or wrong answer.
It was their land, they were very tolerant before the attack on Saarthal. And I don't know much about it (except that Tamriel has the "unreliable narrator"), but I bet the nords provoked them into it. Other than the Ayleids being obviously (mostly) evil to the core and the Dunmer having their slave trade, I can't see where "all elves evil" comes from. (I'm a Dunmer supremacist but I can see why others wouldn't want them ruling...)
@@Aethuviel It was the Snow Elves’ land first and they were tolerable of the Nords firstly. And the truth is, we don’t know what truly happened at Sarthal. Personally, I believe what we see in game is likely merely what was told by Ysgramor- Nord “propaganda.” History is written by the victors after all. In fact, I’ve seen videos Scott theories that the Snow Elves didn’t attack the Nords at all. And the fact we now know the Eye of Magnus was there during that time... We definitely don’t have the complete picture.
Everyone blames the Nords, but not the Dwemer. Wtf. You all do know that the Falmer survived well beyond Ysgramor's time, right? They warred countless times with the Nords over centuries, and kept losing, until finally, the Snow Prince fell at the Moesring. Even after that length of time, there were enough surviving Snow Elves to seek refuge with a far crueler neighbour. I honestly doubt Ysgramor even committed genocide. The kings after him? Maybe, but everyone seems to wrongly assume all the Falmer were gone by the time Ysgramor's own life and reign was over, which simply is not true.
@@356MONKEYMAN , it's called "genocide" when ur kind is killed because of ur ethnicity, especially if nords killed around 85% of them no matter kids or women. And going by this logic nords also deserve good old genocide because they did exactly the same "Saarthal" to the dunmer having no reason for it besides "why not?". Obviously they used it as excuse to conquer land and get rid of the locals.
Dwemer were real dickheads though.
Examples of the elves being terrible rulers
1.The Ayleids
2.The Thalmor
3.The Dwemer and what they did to the Falmer
4. The Dunmer and their treatment of the Argonians.
Honestly I'd rather be ruled by the crack cats or the talking trees and their LSD lizards.
It is fascinating that their God of Justice is the same as their God of Wild Luck
Don't forget that an elven tyrant will live for much longer without a blade in their heart then a human will

The reason why the imperials were such good rulers was due to the fact that they didn’t claim supremacy.
They treated all races basically equally. While yes, imperials maintained most leadership positions, but that just comes with the capital being in Cyrodill.
The Aldmer would never let anyone else lead, and never treat anyone equally. They’d make man and beast slaves, and probably wipe out the orcs.
Most of them. Yes. But Queen Ayrenn in ESO is really not like that. She wanted all the races to coexist peacefully. She even punished elves who claimed supremacy over other races.
