You would call the emporer a coward because he put the well being of his people before his dignity? You've got a pretty skewed view on reality, friend.

Also, what proof do you have that he puts the "nord people" above himself? If he actually cared about the livelihood of his people, he would end his useless uprising so his "people" would stop needlessly dying. Hell, there are about two dozen shrines of talos all over the damned place, and there's even one smack dab in the middle of whiterun, a (soon to be) imperial city.
