None. I doubt the Imperials want to live under another corrupt empire. They hardly care about the people of the Empire: how to strengthen or encourage the army. Eventually they will fall, the Empire already lost territories to the Aldmeri Dominion in the Great War and will cause the scarcity of gold to be used in the coins. Prices will increase leading to inflation. So Imperials have to stop using coins and will turn to barter system, they have to pay taxes with foods.

Political instability will come, just like the Roman Empire, After Emperor Trajan's death in 117 AD, Hadrian took his place. He realized that Rome was no longer in the position to continue their expansion.
