The main problem is that the Thalmor deem people heretics. Talos quite possibly could have ascended to godhood, much like Malacanth became a Daedra. 'Nuf said. Plus, there was an Emperor before Titus Mede II, there had to be. No human lives to be 200 years old. As for the Thalmor invading Skyrim, it is something they would have done, note the Thalmor Emissary outside of Solitude, among other things. By Sithis, they can be found on Solstheim, which is even farther north than Skyrim. And getting into the city? When someone walks up to city gates with Dark Brotherhood clothes on, you let them in. No exceptions. Back to Khajiit caravans, in Cyrodiil the Khajiit are allowed. That said, I've never seen Khajiit near any Imperial city in Skyrim (save Whiterun), and the new Jarl of Windhelm was working on allowing them in the city. Another point, Titus Mede II and the Emperor before him were not prepared to fight the Thalmor because they were recovering from the Oblivion Crisis, which was continent-wide, not just in Cyrodiil. The Imperials are on the right side here, friends. Believe me.
