Also If the head of your country was a tyrant and forced every one into a war that can never be won, would you rebel against authority. Well its been proven time and time again that no, people wouldn't rebel. Throughout human history there has been countless Tyrants, yet rebellions are incredibly rare. For example, King Edward Longshanks, real king only William Wallace is possible fictional charecter from that story, was a tyrant, he was the very deffinition of Tyrant, but he was good to the English people so they never had a reason to rebel. My guess is the Imperial government is good to the Imperial people, so whats the point of them rebelling? One thing Elder Scrolls lore has done perfectly is making the Empire nearly identical to the Roman empire. Rome had several tyranical Emperors, but they never treated the Roman people unfairly, so there was never a revolt by the Roman population.

Im kinda glad Imperials aren't in the game, the idea of there being a rebel faction that you can play that doesnt really have a credible reason for them rebeling, people dont rebel because the government treats other people unfairly, thats only in cheesy movies, its just so unoriginal and dull. If you say that then why not a Altmer faction that hates the Dominion? Its the same situation.
