Honestly, I hate Ulfric, I think he is only in it to be King... I only like the stormcloaks themselves, really. OI mean the Imperials are pretty much like thieves trying to steal your home, take you things, and bully you around... and the stormcloaks are trying to defend their home, you know? That's just how I see it, anyway. And also I don't want the Imperials to take control because if they surrendered to little puny ELVES, than their pretty weak.... I want someone strong, hardy, and brave to rule my land.
Ulfric took imperial land. The imperials are about to grow enough to free the wood elves and make a stand against what will be only 1 small province. Then we will be able to worship Talos and the damn Thalmor will be gone. I hate the stormcloaks because they are blind to that and are extremely racist, and when I played through the stormcloak story line all the dark elves began hating me, and my race is only allowed to live on the docks! And Ulfric is really a coward. He never fought anyone, plus the Nedes werent even the first people in Skyrim. An early group of Aldmer which eventually evolved into the Falmer lived there, before the original companions claimed it as there home because Atmora was dying and slaughtered all the elves. Many books write that the Nedes built a home there and were attacked by snow elves, but in reality, atleast according to more trustworthy books and the like, the Nedes grew greedy and attacked the snow elves. That's why, whenever I do the Companions questline I destroy Wuuthraad in the Skyforge, as it was a weapon used to slaughter innocent elves. I especially do so on elven playthroughs. Imperials dont take your home, they fight to keep it away fro the Thalmor and keep the land that has become part of their world. Nords and Imperials had been friends since they were nedes, up until Ulfrics rebellion. I also don't believe he actually won the duel against the old high king, as I read that nordicc duelers could not use the voice, and Thorygg didnt even accept the terms of the duel, I believe. Also, the imperials protect many a town against Ulfric, such as when he attacks Whiterun and literally destroys the priest of Talos's home in the progress. Not only that, but the one time he got into a battle, at Solitude, he didnt fight anyone, and he used underhanded tactics to basically gurantee his place as High King. And Skyrim has belonged to the imperials since Talos became the first emperor. The first land to join Cyrodill and Tiber Septim, or Talos, was Skyrim. They had always been happy, and now everyone will likely be crushed, as without their allies, neither army will be able to resist the Aldmeri Dominion, enslaved Bosmer archers and powerful Thalmor magicians, along with Imga warriors ad literal moving fortresses, plus they will soon be backed by the Khajiit, who are waging a slightly more righteous rebellion, along with a war against the Thalmor. Without the Nords they will probably focus on Hammerfell and High Rock, as they are very anti-Thalmor, and use their overwhelming power to take Orsinium for the first time in, like, ever. This will leave three nations, the Aldmeri Dominiopn, consisting of Hammerfell, High Rock, Orsinium, Valenwood, Elsewyr and the Summerset Isles. Next they will advance on Black Marsh, while getting in political and physical attacks on the two other nations, Skyrim and the Empire, consisting of Cyrodill, Black Marsh and Morrowind. After they take Black Marsh the Imperials will probably flee to Vvardenfell, leaving the Colovian Nation in their wake, which the suffering Nords will attempt to take. The Thalmor will have made a deal with the sly Colovians and ambush the Nords, killing many soldiers and taking Cyrodill. Morrowind will soone be attacked by both the Nords who are too proud to form an alliance or truce and the Thalmor. One of them will fall and the other will be easily taken. They will then attack the Sload of Thrall and the Maormer of Pyandonea, who may join willingly. The Psijiics may aid them eventually as they search Atmora and Yokuda for life and try to find the Dwemer and annex the few remaining Falmer and Forsworn in Skyrim, as well as the Wild Elves, Goblins and crab things that I forgot the name of across the world. They will take Castle Volikhar eventually, and they will hunt the Akaviri. Eventually they will take everything, even the dragons. All of Nirn will be under their control. That's what might happen if the Nords seceded.
