Theoretically speaking, the latest in the TES time line (Skyrim) has the Thalmor calling the shots. So eventually...

Except pretty much all of Tamriel is seceding from the empire's control due to that and the AD is simply ruling Alinor and the provinces from the First and Second Dominion.

Morrowind doesn't count as it's pure ash in the fourth era.

IIRC correctly thats actually only mostly vardenfell. In the dragonborn expansion for skyrim its stated that Morrowind has had time to recover. The city of torchlight, which is quite close to the channel seperating mainland Morrowind from vardenfell, has prospered to such a point that it's splendour exceeds mournhold in it's better days (or so the NPC says).

The state of the empire during the intereggnum is sort of like the Roman empire during the crisis of the third century (roughly 200 C.E to about 300 C.E). I think thats where bethesda got their inspiration for it.

During the crisis of the third century there was many many roman emperors. Many of them didn't even last a year. The crisis was also ended by a series of powerful emperors (Compare Diocletian to Cuchelain and Constantine to tiber septim).

Anyone else see this comparison as accurate?
