Who do the outposts belong to?

So I've gathered since launch that "Keeps" belong by default to the EP, "Castles" to the AD and "Forts" to the DC, but I've always wondered to whom the Outposts belong.
I've always thought that it was Sejanus=EP, Nickel=AD and Bleakers=DC, but just this morning I log in and see that I, as an EP player, have the "Home Keep Bonus" passive by holding all "Keeps"+Bleakers. Come to think of it, I've never seen that passive when we hold all "Keeps"+Sejanus before.
Anyone know?
I'm a man of few words. Any questions?

    Outposts don't count toward home keep bonus, from what I've seen.

    You got it right, bleaker is dc, nikel ad and sejanus ep.

    If you look at the map, you will see it is divided into three areas. Each alliance has one as 'home' territory. These areas are separated by milegates (each 'border' has three milegates). the AD-EP border has bridges instead of milegates.

    The outpost that is inside a particular home area(inside the'borders' made by milegates/bridges) naturally belongs to the faction whose 'home' that area is.

    (and, as noted above, outposts do not count for the 'home keep' bonus)

    I guess it was a bug then, cause I've checked while EP had all the home keeps and I've never seen the "Home Keep Bonus" in my passives before. I assumed the outposts counted, since the only different thing was that we had Bleakers instead of Sejanus.

    The Home Keep bonus often doesn't show up at all. I noticed the same thing in EU-TB yesterday, even though EP had all of its home keeps.

    My favorite EP only thing: the awesome underground tunnels connecting Arrius/Kingscrest/Farragut keeps. Perfect for moving into position, I've NEVER seen an enemy player in those tunnels. It's fun.

    I haven't logged in today. The night-capped map doesn't surprise me though.

    But but... I'm at work :(
    Just go to Whitefall mountains west of Farragut farm, there should be a quest marker in front of the tunnel, a note for some random little side quest. Then BOOM. Tunnels under the mountain connecting the keeps. One end comes out just north of Arrius Mine, near the farm.

    Just noticed today that Nikel has Altmer statues in it, Bleakers has Breton statues and Sejanus has Nord statues. So while they don't give any bonuses, it's highly likely that:
    Nikel=Dominion
    Bleakers=Covenant
    Sejanus=Pact

    I highly doubt it. For EP to get the "home keep" bonus, they have to hold all 6 marked as "Keep" (Farragut, Arrius, Kingcrest, Chalman, Blue Road and Drakelowe), for AD "Castle" (Bloodmayne, Black Boot, Faregyl, Roebeck, Alessia) and for DC "Fort" (Warden, Rayles, Glademist, Dragonclaw, Ash and Aleswell).
    That shows what the home keeps are. The Outposts are anyone's guess, but not the home keeps.

    That's still a question ^^ ?

    They are in their factions territory, wich borders are marked by mountains with the supposedly only ways to pass being imperial gates and bridges.
    When a new server goes live they also belong to that faction (Sej EP, Nikel AD, Bleakers DC).

    If that doesn't answer the question for you, I guess nothing will.

    Plus... why would the AD have HUMAN statues in their outpost? Or the DC Altmer statues? It'd be weird.

    By that logic, AD/DC/EP flags+apparel were waiting for centuries in Cyrodiil at the keeps/Gates before the alliances even formed :disagree:
    I highly doubt the Empire of Men, which was formed by freeing themselves from ELVEN slavemasters, would display elven statues in their outposts. No, the AD brought that stuff with them when they invaded, just like the other alliances brought their knick-knacks with them. No way those statues were part of the original Imperial design.

    Those statues were gifts to me so I put them in my outposts.
    And @mjspnrb18_ESO left huge mess of dead ad in sejanus the other day. If he doesn't clean it up no one will be allowed to use sejanus.
