Am I going crazy?

RapidUrsa

I'm quite a big fan of the lore so ill read up on things sometimes if I'm interested about them! But one thing which really gets to me is People referring to Black Marsh as Argonia!! Now I may be wrong here but is that an acceptable term of is it an awful lore beheading lie?!!

Damianos

Its Argonia you lizardist

http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Black_Marsh

"Black Marsh is a dense swampland region of southeastern Tamriel, home to the reptilian humanoid race of Argonians and a race of sentient trees known as the Hist. Mer races also use the name Argonia, a reference to an obscure ancient battlefield, to avoid the negative connotations of the term "Black Marsh."

Black Marsh is the only term for such a place!!

First of all, native folk of these lands that we call Argonians are Saxhleel. Also, I like the term Black Marsh more.

No clue, I think it should be called...

Orsinium.

No idea, I just know it as "that damn place I never want to quest again" or in character "that place".

Mudland / Mashland

Slave land...

The imperials gave it the title black march but the argonians (mostly natives, most likely not immgrants or ones that grew up in other regions) refer to it as argonia. So I just guess it depends what race you are honestly.

I know the argonians are free now but they don't have to be so smug about it

INCORRECT
I place that in bold because that statement may be interpreted as a fact. Imperials called the land Black Marsh, Elves called it Argonia, We Saxhleel do not measure our land with imaginary borders. http://truean-xileel.guildlaunch.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11110185&gid=496119

We may use terms like tzel or ta to represent our area.

if "smug" means excess, then true,do not be. If it means proud, then we certainly should be and be more so.
Vicecannon Heita-Meen and even more so, Keshu the Black Fin earned far more then almalexia agreeing to publicly discontinue Saxhleel trafficking.
The Black Fin freed and trained many of us, while Heita-Meen strategically fought and freed herself. They both happened to join that Akaviri invasion and saved the losing dunmer and nords.
Actually, more Saxhleel need to be aware of the fact we were going to take our independence that same day regardless. That same day Heita-Meen was on her way to kill a whole lot of dunmer with a Shellback army, and Keshu was arriving to assist Jorunn.

Right. Black Marsh is the Imperial name, Argonia is the Aldmeri name, and "the Marsh" is often used by Argonians when referring to their homeland in Tamrielic. But we don't actually know if the region has a name in Jel.

It should be called... "underwhelming, poorly-designed land". Or perhaps "I can't be bothered to explore this place land".

Or "I probably die if I enter this land, even if it's from a heart attack from getting dirt on my armor".
