Ehh its fine my spelling is far worse than yours I look back and I made many grammar and spelling errors only if I can correct my mistakes in my last comments at least you get spell checking. on the forsworn yeah I think that the Empire won't do much about them to the Empire their probably more like bandits now than an actual Rebellion and well gameplay wise in oblivion, daggerfall and skyrim and any Elder Scrolls game they almost never do anything about bandits only relying on anyone mainly adventurers and mercenaries payed by the local population for help.

On the discrimination part yes this is very complex with many layers to it but why did they stop for skyrim and why did they not just migrate to high rock or cyrodiil they should have known about prejudice they have agains their race. what really bothers me is that the Empire does nothing to help on this matter Even before the Great war or the Rebellion they never appear to negotiate with Black Marsh to end the invasion on Morrowind or to return to the Empire or to get refugies out of there its like they think this would just sort itself out and Morrowind was still part of the Empire that time and thats really bad leadership in their part and one good general does not make a good Empire. General Tullius doesn't really care much about their culture at all and he may respect the cause that the Stormcloaks stand for but it doesn't seem to extend farther than that but don't get me wrong I actually still like and respect the guy even if he really is an uninteresting character (they could of at least gave him more of a personality) I think Legate Rikke would have been better in his place actually

During the state the Empire is in we can't afford a passive,incompetent and pretty short sighted Emperor actually when you think about it during the Great War. history shows that the most blood thirsty, power hungry, and opportunistic warlords were the ones that started some of the greatest empires in our history (Real life) and its really how Tiber Septim the man who made the Empire reach its glory days was probadly like this, actually you might find that if you read his history he became backstabbing and opportunistic to the friend that helped him gain his power, Pelinal Whitestrake is a hero revered to the Imperials as the man (or spirit?) who helped lead the race of man to freedom but is descibed to Mer and maybe to some Khajiit due to being mistaken to him as type of Mer (Im not certain as to why)  as a warlord and a violent mass murderer who kills Mer with impunity and was once written (im not certain of source) that he openly admited to hating the race of Mer but it may be best to just disregard this, Ysgramor lead the Return with five hundred companions and well basicaly did an attempt of genocide (note that the Falmer did the same thing to them maybe for that artifact in Saarthal) and the first of the Mede dynasty Titus Mede was a Warlord that invaded the Imperial City with less than a thousand men and claimed the city and became Emperor and ruled it relatively fine unless you count that event The Infernal City (a book about the events that happened after oblivion) im not really certain if he did anything of note during this time but I guess there are crisis that happened from time to time. Im not saying that Ulfric would be a great King but he might be one that Skyrim might need right now to Stop the Thalmor (you know from killing people) and before you bring up the the Thalmor dossier yes I know he is being used yes I know they consider him as a indirect agent and asset but it also says that they should avoid a Stormcloak victory and that they support a prolonged effect to the war so if the Empire wins the damage has already done and the empire is weakened and its not like they can do anything about it even if they did win skyrim back since they had four countries before the great war and lost one after the war and that one is still fighting the thalmor on its own which speaks even less for the Empire, if the Stormcloak wins the Empire may be weakened but now they would have to deal with a resistance of two countries and history shows that they do fairly well against elves on their own.

I wish you can start a new Empire with Hammerfell somehow and conquer high rock and negotiate a pact with the Argonians of Black Marsh storm Cyrodiil send Redguard's to the nothern badland's of Elsweyr to crush any Thalmor presence send the argonians across the coasts of the southern forests Elsweyr to form an insurgency and then storm and burn Valenwood down to cut the conection of the Thalmor to the main land and then land on Alinor (or Summerset Isle) Take the Northern Cities and then send a large force of legion troops south for a distraction and then rush right thru the center to Alinor for a surprise attack while their preoccupied with the south but I getting my hopes up it's never going to happen.

The thing I said in the end was just a little tidbit about Imperials gameplay wise on their really bad stats and how fighting the thalmor (if their going to fight but I see no intelligent reason for them to) would be really hard since they are not very imposing in combat and their armor very unsuitable for the climate in Skyrim (well at least the Stormcloaks can sneak in one kill more at least) it isnt really ment to be taken seriously just my thoughts.

I try using a different style instead if you dont mind if tell me if its easier to understand what im writing.
