Ulfric is a nationalist and would much rather strengthen Skyrim's defense as opposed to lending aid to anywhere else. I though it is mention somewhere, that Elsweyr actually split from Aldmeri Dominion, or at least fighting for it. No, though that would be cool if they did. Khajiit don't really look like they would be in an Elven coalition. They think the Thalmor are their saviors for "bringing back" the moons. Are you for are against Skyrim's independence? Just asking because your name says legate but you seem to be faithful that the Stormcloaks could beat the AD in a war after the Civil war.

Legate Alexandros is the title and the name of the first character I ever created in Skyrim. He is an Imperial and I had him join the Legion. However, I tried other scenarios too and personally, I don't agree with Civil War and would rather had them come up with a peaceful solution, since Thalmor seem to be the real enemy. United Empire would be nice, but if it would come to this, free Kingdom of Skyrim might do great too. Who knows, they might even rebuilt the Nordic Empire and have their High King wear jagged crown. Nords are always underestimated by others, especially by elves. I am sure their resolve would help them win the war against Thalmor, expecially since they would be on their home turf. Thalmor more then likely have no experience fighting in that kind of terrain. In the way, the mountains of Skyrim makes it similar to Afghanistan and it wasn't easy for anyone to fight in any of Afghan wars for the same reasons. Most incursions in Afghanistan ended in failure, this time around it a bit more successful, but I still wouldn't say it was a smooth ride. In fact, despised what they say, it seems like the war still going on there. Anyways, I think you got the idea of fighting on your home turf, so elves would be at some dissadvantage there. I swear though I've seen somewhere that they stated that Khajit had enough of elven dominance recently, I would have to take a look at wikia article again sometime.
