          Kinda happens when half of your territory gets destroyed, you get invaded by lizards and lose support of both the empire and the tribunal.

            The civil war happened before the Red Year, though. It was initiated by Helseth and supported by half of the great houses. Probably not for entirely altruistic reasons since Helseth is driven by imperial business interests but that also applies to our Civil War too.

            Granted, the Argonians were kinda justified in doing what they were doing even after

      Literally one of the first people I talk to in Morrowind is some random bumfuck commoner that instantly starts up a Ben Shapiro spiel about how "The imperials vowed to uphold the law yet they don't seem very keen to go after abolitionists, I just think thats interesting" like this fucking guy doesnt even own any slaves hes just a temporarily embarrassed slave owner.

    Fun fact: Dunmer are so racist that "n'wah" means "foreigner, non-Dunmer, and/or slave"

    Literally :same-picture: for them

      TES racism is complicated because, well, everyone hates each other. At least the Orcs have a God that tells them to stand up for outcasts, so maybe that keeps some of their racism in check.

        Not to the same degree, that's for sure. The Altmer Thalmor desire to retcon all of creation to retroactively remove non-Mer from existence is really something. As is the Dominion's infantical campaign in Shadowfen in Elder Scrolls Online to try to murder an entire generation of Argonians before they hatch.

          They're not trying to retcon reality, they're trying to unmake it entirely

      Which, btw, includes foreign or “imperialized” Dunmer. Granted, it’s probably better to be that than an Argonian or Khajiit.
