IMO, I think Akavir is divided, separate kingdoms with different style of society and government. Each competing between each other to display their power. I believe they were united once, hence the invasion of Tamriel, but now it's probably politics. Here's what I imagined;

East Akavir = Japan West Akavir = China North Akavir = East Russia/Yakutia South Akavir = Tibet
