And again, I believe Skyrim needs a cultural reform, as the Nord way of life is far too violent to get anything done effectively and quickly, I think siding with the Stormcloaks just encourages them to look at fighting as the only way to get things done, I don't see what's so bad about the Empire being in charge, yes the Dominion is in charge I will concede that point, but I would rather have Tullius around than some self-serving racist in charge of the whole country.

And either way the Dominion will find a way to advance their goals one way or another, from what I understand, they actually wanted Skyrim to try and secede from the Empire by further banning Talks. Has anyone noticed that the treaty just "happens" to have agreements that cause tension in the other country? Yes, they said that it is not good if the Stormcloaks win, but by starting this whole rebellion, I think the Stormcloaks have played right into the Dominion's plans, by doing what they do best, argue and fight. I know I could be confused but don't both side say the Empire actually imports food and other resources into Skyrim?And I wouldn't say the Empire is scared by the Dominion as much as they just don't want to initiate another war with them so soon (I can't blame them and I doubt you can). I must admit that you and Sick Demon have for lack of a better word, "redeemed" the Stormcloaks to a degree in my eyes, but they're beliefs and etc. Just don't agree with me.
