I would Love the Empire to Keep hold of Skyrim because if the Empire does not keep hold of Skyrim then they are finished. If the Thalmor ever decide to attack Cyrodiil again (and If I was them I would given the empire weakness) I do not see the Empire being in the next Elder Scrolls game. I don't think the Red guards are going to be offering there help any time soon so it is in Vital importance that the Empire keep hold of Skyrim. So death to the Stromcloaks, long live the Empire.
