Talos is of an unknown race, possibly Nord/Atmorian/Imperial/Breton.

They were initially defeated by the Akaviri, but eventually defeated them under the guidance of the Empire led by Reman Cyrodil. Talos was in theory half nord half breton, so he's a breton through the game lore, as his mom was a breton and his dad was a nord (that's why he was hjalti early-beard). They did say he was a half breton. Anyway, a breton is a half altmer half nord. Talos was definitely not an atmoran when he was alive as tiber septim (the atmoran part of talos was the non zurin part of the underking)

No comments on the second point
