Well, Nirn is the planet of the TES universe. Tamriel is the main continent where the in-game events take place. However, it's just one continent and may be only a small part of Nirn.

Atmora, for example, is described as a frozen continent. This is the obvious TES version of Antarctica, however in Earth it is localized south of the rest of the world, while in Nirn it is north.
