Nevertheless, towards the end of the first era, they somehow got into the government of Remen III. Then ploted against him and succeded in killing him and his son. Thus the first era had ended and the second one began; along with Akaviri potentate. It lasted for only two succession of Potentates, but appearantly Akaviri seem to be long livers. Not to mention that both of them got assassinated after a long rule, well the first one had a long one. I think Interegnum started after the death on the second Potentate and lasted for at least couple of centuries after that, maybe more. I guess sometime during interregnum, the Tharn family took over and this is what ESO is all about. Three factions from across Tamriel, fighting to unseat Tharn family from Cyrodil and to crown their own Emperor. However, around th 8th century of second era Talos had defeated all the competition and was crowned a true Emperor Tiber Septim. Although it more then likely that he killed his friend Cuhlecain to achieve that, but that can still be debated, if you don't believe in Arcturian Heresy.
