The altmer should just conquer the islands (Pyandonea) where the Maomer live and be done with with Tamriel. If they did a mass migration, they'd have a whole ocean separating them from the 'heathens' on Tamriel. Plus, it's a separate continent, and the only other inhabitants are other elves. It's a win-win situation.
