Falmer=The Betrayers we all know what they did to the early humans when they noticed their strenght, what if they attacked the Dwemer who then punished and subued them by turning them into what they are today. Why the Falmer attacked Saarthal still isn't known, but the most likely reason probably had to do with the Eye of Magnus. One source seems to put part of the blame on Dagon.

There is no chance the Falmer could beat the Dwemer, I mean in all honastly the Dwemer are extremely powerfull with even better armour, weopans, and machine than the falmer. The Dwemer would have droven the race to true extinction, I think the Dwemer just didnt care about the ´´Rebellions´´ also the Chimer vs Dwemer was only in Morrowind, the skyrim dwemer are more like greeks with independent city states. The problem is the Dwemer didnt make the Red Mountain into a city, if they had it would have been undefeatable. One of there citys caused earthquakes to defend itself another went underwater. The Chimer overwhelmed the Dwemer, and when they leaders saw how they would die they did a selfish thing and payed the cosencuences. What Kagrenac did to the Heart of Lorkhan was definitely not a "we're not going to let you have the pleasure of killing us" scenario. The whole reason why the War of the First Council started was because of what Voryn Dagoth (Dagoth Ur) discovered what the Dwemer were doing, that being the building of Numidium (a potential threat to the entire world) and the use (or maybe even worship) of the Heart of Lorkhan to acheive their goals.
