Except most people in Skyrim were just like "ehh" in regards to the civil war.

As for DLC, Bethesda said before Skyrim's release there would be less DLC then fallout, which had 5 DLC, but they would be larger on average..... which is what we got. It's also unlikely they would do a Thalmor/Hammerfell DLC because Bethesda never starts storylines they cant complete in the game game/DLC, and that situation is too large for a DLC.

Also, those last 200 years are just that, the last 200 years, we don't talk about things that happened 40+ years ago today in the real world, nor would they in Tamriel. the Hammerfell situation would be just a year or two ago, which is a different situation entirely.
