    None of them. However, if USA was in Tamriel they'd be the Altmer, and not because of WHAT they are but WHO they are.

    The Ebonheart Pact is most like the United states and this is why:
    Depends probably Ebonheart Pact because of former slavery policies all the races of the Ebonheart pact may not like each other but they tolerate each other to achieve a common goal while none of the alliances are democracies it seems as if Nords, Dunmer and to a lesser extent Argonians as they don't seem to be as politically active are equally represented in the pact

    The Daggerfall Covenant is your typical monarchy nothing special here

    While the Almeri Dominion is slightly tyrannical and Altmers view themselves as the superior race and it seems the other races of the Dominion are just puppets they would fit in perfectly with 1939 Germany

    Why does the comparison have to be made with the U.S.? Really I'd say the Empire was most similar. The Dominion in particular is a Dictatorship that eventually turns into a version of *** Germany what with the Thalmor.

    Because, of the fact several quests in ad where you have marines, and the way it is ran I think would make it more like the united states. But I would say ad might have a queen but I do think its more america in style because of several american like things you see with them also they have the banner of the eagle. Which is the symbol of america. I do believe Ad at first was more like america until the descendants of the veiled inheritance took over.

    Thats what the ad becomes in the future but in game they don't seem to be like that. Their is a group that is very extremist and racist. In the future I believe they will rebuild the Dominion and pervert what it originally standed for for because of the hate for Queen Ayrenn. They have problems with the veiled inheritance in the Dominion questlines they are the enemy and they basically stand for everything you see them stand for in Elder Scrolls Skyrim. So yes they will become dictators but this will most likely happen with the Second and Third Dominion.

    I think you have to do regions of the US or Cities / States.

    Auridon reminds me of Hawaii - Right down the the pompous Elite that rule the place.
    The Shadow Fen is culturally like Oregon and Washington but geographically like Louisiana or Florida
    The Reapers March and Kenarthis Roost remind me of Southern California.
    Grahtwood and Malabal Tor Remind me of Northern California.
    Daggerfall is like any inner city between Chicago and Pittsburg
    Eastmarch is like Newfoundland - I know not in the USA but they both talk funny and it's cold.
    The Rift is like Alaska
    The Alikiri desert is like the Southwest geographically but Culturally nothing in the US compares.
    Stonefalls is like New Jersey.

    the dominion is definitely more *** Germany than anything. i would say EP is more like the US as well.

    the fact that that is censored is actually more offensive than the word itself (well, the words not offensive it's a historical topic anyways)......

    EP deffintly resembles USA more since there is the slavery parallel and now the racism between the ex-masters and ex-slaves (Whites/Blacks). Also there is fact that neither of the other two alliances really share any similarities with USA.

    Depends on how you look at each Alliance.

    Do you enjoy putting on airs and pretending you're better than everyone else while being a Racist? AD
    Do you believe in the all mighty $$$ so much so that you would go to War for more of it? DC
    Do you pretend to spread the word of equality and freedom towards all but in reality hate and repress each other? EP

    The Aldmeri Dominion is most like the United states and this is why:
    Pretty much all three factions have major flaws and they have some very horrible people that are sent into other lands. Daggerfall covenant will use necromancers and necromancy and assassins, their soldiers will kill anyone in their path they attack innocent villages slaughtering anyone they find. Aldermeri domionion basically had the general or person in Shadowfin that destoryed argonion egg's and almost cut them off from the hist. They also used a bound daedra to skin steal the skin of others and wear their faces. Ep I am sure they have done raids and basically done slaughtering and also bound folks into slavery. They in the video that showed the three heros, where they use the highelf using her to power a magical spell against her will that destroyed a good chunk of the wall that lead into imperial city. So basically all three factions are flawed. They designed and did these factions with their pros and flaws for a reason so neither one of them could be considered good.

    Being a Washington native, I'm not quite seeing that Cultural similarity. Shadowfen's Conservative and Mystical. Us Pacific Northwesterners are more so Progressive and Liberal.
