I am of the same mind as RollerTrack, but I think most races do not fully have a real life counterpart, which would make the project as a whole rather difficult. Some like, the Cyrodiils, do have some explicit signs of influence by a certain real world culture, but they do share some distinct differences with the whole Nibenay/Colovia dichotonomy, or the advances in the form of Mananauts, for instance. Even though they are likely influenced by a number of real life cultures, and share many differences meaning they do not mirror any real world counterpart exactly, I can see why something like the Romans could be assigned to them, but some races like the Dunmer or Argonians, as well as the Altmer, seem difficult to attach anything to. I do wish you the best of luck in your endeavour, however, even though this may not have been so helpful.
