Imperials are one of the following: Nedes who went south and their physiology adapted to less fierce climates, Nedes mixed with the now extinct Akavir humans, ever so slight inner breeding from Nord slaves with the Heartland Elves, like out of every ten slaves, one was married to a Hearland Elf, overtime these genes would pass over the entire Imperial population in theory, or Nedes/ maybe Nords by now havent checked my dates with Redguard innerbreeding. I personally support all three for different reasons: the first because in Oblivion they look like Nords but withouth the Viking like features, the second because it could be the reason for the Blades having Akavir katanas and other slight influences in their culture, the third because it would explain why still keep Imperial City around, though this theory I support the least next to the Akavir one, the fourth because in Skyrim they all look like (the males) Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Carribean.
