We all know how Bethesda likes to surprise the community by pulling a new storyline out of their hat and I'd be extremely interested to see the fallout from the civil war in Skyrim.

They could pull another technical dragon-break/non-dragon-break and make it so that the civil war in Skyrim was never actually settled and the country has become divided in two with Whiterun being completely decimated. (I suppose that's not actually a dragon break but you get my meaning)

The empire would then be extremely desperate to survive and thus the next game takes place on the Summerset Isles where the Empire is desperately trying to break the stranglehold of the Thalmor by launching an all out last chance desperate attack on the Altmer.

This is it, the pinnacle event in TES where the Empire is either vanquished forever and Cyrodiil is under Aldemeri enslavement or the Thalmor are crushed into dust.

I vote Empire wins. :P
