4 for this argument, you're assuming the stormcloaks win. your argument is basically "if the stormcloaks win, it's best if they win". also, morrowind is a useless ally as they're still recovering from the red year, and while hammerfell hates the empire, they're not exactly friendly with skyrim either (border disputes and such). basically, if the empire wins, they have 3 provinces, while skyrim would be on its own in case of a stormcloak victory. The Empire would have 3 provinces jockeying for power once they realize Titus Mede II has been assassinated. Another Stormcrown Interregnum. why does everyone always assume tites mede II has no heirs? It might not even be relevant. Usually when someone tries to assassinate an Emperor, it's usually because of a power play to be the head honcho. Since its a transfer of power through violence, usually those types of plays have violent ends that consumes all associated with the Empire.
