Really you ignore the fact that the empire lost provinces all over Tamriel. You also ignore the fact the Thalmor also gained provinces as well destroyed the Blades outside of Cyrodill. You also ignore the first ultimatum as well the Emporer declining it starting The Grea War. Ah yes the dragonblood you mean the same dynasty that would have been toppled by the Mythic Dawn if it were not for the efforts of the Champion of Cyrodill. The Empire lost because the Imperial City was completly surrounded by the Thalmor which eventually caputured the Imperial city. Had it not been for the combined forces of the Legion from Skyrim which was made of mostly Nords and the small Army fighting the Thalmor in Hammerfell not to mention the suprise attack by the Legion which led to the recapturing of the Imperial City. Now with most of your Army destroyed would you have kept fighting the Talmor think about it.
