While i agree with most i think that the Breton is the most like the Britons or early England. This is clearly present in the Forsworn all over Skyrim that atleat remind me of the Pitcs and Druids that pushed the Romans from England. Also i just want to say that i dont think that all are completely based on real cultures, for example i think that while the Drak elves may have Asian influince they also remind me of Native Americans because the Ashlanders live in small tribes and specalize in Bow hunting. Also becuase if you look at the ancient Dunmer strong holds scattered across the land you can see that they are built in a pyramid fashion which reminds me of the pyramids built in south, and central American and by the Mississippi people of ancient North American. Vivic also reminds me very much so of Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital, becuase it is built on top of the water. And as for the high elves just being elves i think that the more stariotypical elf would be the wood elf. Think about it Legolous didnt run around and shoot fireballs he was fast, nible, and good with a bow. Also it is clearly present in Skyrim that the khajit has gypsy influence and the Redgaurd has Ottoman influence, but like i said they are not based on these people just small things are taken from them to for the base. Thanks for taking the time to read this and sorry for the many words im sure i spelled wrong do to the lack of spell check my generation has grown so reliant on.
