you got fucking kings, Torygg, Helseth, living gods of the Tribunal.... under an "Emperor"? who puts some garrisons around but does.... what exactly?

theres an "East Empire Trading Company"? whats that do?

it kinda seems like a holy roman empire, kinda seems like a regular roman empire. they've got knights, dukes, but a Legion...

yes i know the answer is technically "these jackoffs just made it up as they went" and don't care a lick about political theory but this is exactly the kind of excercise that makes fun speculative historiography

    The empire doesn't exist yet before and during the events of Morrowind. At the time the game takes place, the Tiber Wars are ongoing, as Tiber Septim is still unifying the human realms before trying to face Black Marsh, Elsweyr, or the Mer kingdoms.

      :agony-shivering: damn you got me real confused but UESP got my back

      Tiber septim 2E828-->3E38

      Morrowind is in 3e 427.

      im pretty sure Tiber Septim is in like... Redguard? and maybe Daggerfall? but Morrowind he's won and theres an imperial garrison on Vvardenfell
