Dwarven Automatons run on Soul Gems, we know this because of Calcelmo’s Lab with that dwarven spider you can control with the staff. So that means that to create a mass of Dwarven Automatons you needed a constant supply of souls.

Nealoth told us that the Dwarven Ruins called Nchardak could make a fully functional automaton in one day. That means one soul every day, at least. We’re not sure if he was talking about the Centurions in particular or all of them, but I would assume that it takes less time to make the Dwarven Spider Workers.

This means that the Dwarves needed to find ways to get souls without having to travel very far, or have someone going out hunting for the souls. Keep that in mind.

Remember in Dawnguard, when you were talking to the Snow Elf and he told us that the Snow Elves went to the Dwarves and the Dwarves blinded them, and he said that they had to have done something else to change the race to the Betrayed? Yea, here’s the thing. Snow Elves have souls that can only go in Black Soul Gems. That’s obvious since they had a society that rivaled the Altmer. The Falmer have Souls that can be put in Petty or Lesser depending on the sub-type of the Falmer.

Remember what I said about the Dwarves needing a source of easily accessed souls? The Dwarves created the Falmer to harvest their souls for the Automatons. Incorrect, they used them for protection and slave labor, notice how almost all falmer are in mines or cities of the dwemer? both yours and elrohirs statements can be true....except for the protection part, why in the fuck  the Dwemers wanted to use the falmer for their protection while they have super hi-tech War Machines ,this is the like "Medieval knights" protecting "SPACE MARINES" At this time the dwemer were murdering each other with there epic weapons, they were glad to take any protection available. Because there cities were extremely weak due to them using there hi tech war machines on each other i've never heard a Dwemer Civil War before, i wonder why....?

oh i know because there have never been such thing recorded in the history Tamriel, all i know is that Dwemer have been rivaling with their cousins, the Chimer and fighting the nords, who wants to invade Morrowind

Besides all Dwemers are to Intelligent to fight against their own race, unlike our people here in the real world who starts civil wars just because tiny... iny.... problem, difference and other stupid causes.
