 * Not very many books about the Great War are published.
 * Lack of detail. Who knows, a hero like Kvatch and Daggerfall could form in these times. They formed when regular people did extraordinary things, and while not noteworthy in the tales of Lore always, they have appeared. Chance is, they DID have a hero to help them win. ANYWHERE, does it say anything about the Eternal Champion in Skyrim? Hero of Daggerfall? Hero of Kvatch? No.
 * Lots of things were happening in Skyrim during 4E 201. Dragons returned, Civil War, and the Last Dragonborn of legend fought. Why think about what's going on in Hammerfell, Cyrodil, Morrowind, if you have problems galore to worry about? Still room for the huge, massive events that would shock Tamriel.
