1: Read paragraph one, I explained all of this.

2: A loading screen also says Ulfric shouted Torygg to peices. Which can't be true because the Dragonborn can't even do that, how could Ulfric do it if his voice is probably much weaker? Biased NPCs say that, The Great War kind of says that, but they also explain why people think they could've won.

3: The Dominion suffered huge losses, just like the Empire. Elves don't reproduce as fast as humans so they probably have barely regrouped from the war. The war with Hammerfell didn't help ether.

4: If the Empire keeps peace with the Dominion that won't happen. Even if they do they have to go through the mountains that are between Skyrim and Cyrodiil which are not easy to bring an army through.

5: Do you know what the definition of trade is? The Empire would suffer if they stopped trading with Skyrim. I highly doubt they would stop. Also, their would be no reason for them to stop using Septims. Stop acting like it's a fact that the Dominion can beat them, it's not even close to one. For the reasons I explained above the Dominion is weakend and Skyrim could make alliances.
