Sothas wrote: Excuse me? That's a super helpful comment you got there. The Nords say he's a Nord/Atmoran, the Bretons say he's a Breton, and the Cyrods say he's Imperial. They are all forcing their beliefs, attempting to make it so others believe it. They do so to make their own nation look better/stronger. That is propaganda. The real question is who is right? Is he a Breton, Nord, or Imperial? Or is he none of them? Or, the most likely case based on all the informarion we have (some of it blatantly saying so), is it that he is all three?

Also, in TES, as well as the real world religion can definitely have propaganda. Nobody says he's an Imperial, only the Arcturian Heresy does so. According to the Imperials he's a Nord, in fact, according to most of Tamriel he's a Nord. It's not Imperial propaganda, have you never read the Pocket Guide to the Empire?
