The Divines are so powerful, we only see them as planets when we look up into the night sky, our puny mortal minds trying to comprehend what we are seeing.

Or how about create an entire world? Each Prince does have a realm in Oblivion, but they are a lot smaller in scale than compared to Nirn. Daedric Princes may be powerful, but the good ol divines are even more so. Akatosh was incapacitated and he managed to defeat Mehrunes Dagon through Martin Septim, In his Sleep! 1.Daedric Princes cannot be truely killed.Their are still invulnerable.Akatosh simply banished Dagon.

2.The divines pooled their combined power make Nirn.Each Daedric Prince made their realm on their own.Also, Molag Bal created his version of Nirn except it is pretty much inhabitable.Hermaeus Mora's Apocryhpa is literally endless, as it contains all knowledge.(After Storn gives up his secrets, which is canon.) The Deadlands are bigger then Tamriel as far as I know.

3.And you are forgetting Akatosh is the god of Time.He can warp time, regaining most of his power, theoretticaly.

4. Second era, Molag Bal literally plunged Tamriel into utter chaos.He had a infinite army of undead werewolves at his disposal and literally almost carried Tamriel into Coldharbour.An entire continent was nearly lifted out of Mundus and carried into Coldharbour.And who stopped him?Mortals.Why?He didn't even bother manifesting himself and just sent anchors down.If Divines are so powerful, why did mortals need the Amulet of Kings?

5.Artifacts.The Skeleton Key can open any lock, physical, mental or anything.It is more then likely the most powerful object to ever exist.The Wabbajack is based on mortals themselves, it is literally a part of mortals as well as Sheogorath.Why?Mortals are random, and everyone has a bit of madness in them.

6.The planets are a Dwemer drawing of what they imagined the Divines are like.In truth, the Divines tore a hole in Mundus and escaped to Aetherius, a completely different realm.The sun is that hole.
