It would have been significantly harder, and much longer of a war, to root out all the remaining humans, after collapsing a unified Empire, then it would be to destroy each human nation individually, when they are fractured, and more unwilling to help each other. In the long term, is far easier, and more efficient, at least theoretically. 3

Provide one in-game source. I dare you to try. 4

The Thalmor has been a powerful political party in Alinor for ages, if not a minority one. 5

Not really, point A was what The Thalmor intended to get, believed they were getting, and what The Empire has pretended to give, when they signed the WGC. C on the other hand is what The Thalmor actually found out they would be getting, and what The Empire actually gave. 6

It does if you understand how occupations work. 7

You forget the concept of scale. Its close in-game, but in reality it would be some distance away. Not to mention its on a unused side-road leading up into mountains that no one inhabits. Its as out of the way as possible, while still giving the illusion of being close to the capital. 8

Literally no such thing happened. The only mention of why Elenwen was at the meeting was because she was part of the Imperial delegation. Nothing says Tullius personally invited her there, only that she came because he is legally bound to bring her. 1. Yes.

2. How would it be harder to defeat enemies that have exausted their strengths?

And, no human is going to stand by and let elves play us off against eachother in the manner you are describing.

The ploy would be obvious.

3. I do very much remember a Justicar saying that all humans will be killed or something to that effect it's not important.

We know what Thalmor wants.

4. Goes to show what kind of leaders the Altmer wants doesn't it? But I didn't know that.

5. They still don't mesh, why was the AD so stupid?

6. Explain? Guerilla warfare is very effective I'll have you know, the Dominions losses would have been greater than the Redguards simply by merit of one knowing the lay of the land and the other not.

7. No, I'm quite sure I haven't and it's not exactly unused is it?

Imperials go there to mingle and party with their masters.

8. He was in no way legally bound to bring her, it had nothing to do with Talos.

So the only reason to bring her is cause they're BFFS.
