I think I got you, the reagion reffered to as Western Reach, is still a part of High Rock, while the Reach, once broke off from High Rock and then was annexed by Skyrim. I do believe that Dragonstar was located on the triangle of the Western Reach land, that happened to be between High Rock, Hammerfell and Skyrim. I wish they would include a back story for it in Skyrim, since we know that at one point a part of Dragonstar was part of Skyrim, there isn't much lore on how Hammerfell got it back.

The way I see Interegnum part of Elder Scrolls lore, is the least Documented period of time, since Metethic Era. All we know is after the last of Akaviri Potentate was assiassinated by then Morag Tang assassins (that is what turned that group into Dark Brotherhood) with his entire family, on the orders from Night Mother in 2E 430, Interegnum started. We don't know much of what was going on during this period of time, until the appearance of Talos on the battlfield at Old Hroldan; except for the part that it was the time when Kingdoms, big and small was fighting for power. The rise of Talos happened in 2E 850's, so for about 400 years or more, we don't even know much of what was going on. It seems that Zenimax and Bethedha chose this period to set Elder Scrolls Online, to try to shed more light on what really was happening between assassination of the last Akaviri Potentate and Talos' ascendance to power and throne. Elder Scrolls Online, takes place 244 years before the birth of Hjalti and about 100 to 200 years after the Akaviri Potentate was ended. It might have been just a small potion of Interregnum, it might have still be going on when Hjalti was born, it is hard to say. I don't know about Daggerfall Covenant and Ebonheart Pact, but Aldmeri Dominion, certainly survived, even into Talos' time. Since it would seem, the Dominion was a nation of their own by the time Talos took the Ruby Throne, that is the reason he had to subjugate them with Numidium, to unify the Empire once more. Perhaps other aliances were disolved by then, while Aldmeri Dominion became a sovereign nation, but didn't get the Ruby Throne. Seemingly how Talos had to conquer Morowind and parts of Blackmarsh, the Ebonheart Pact was over by then. Hight Rock seemed to have been separate from Hammerfell by then, since Hight Rock didn't resist much after Saner Tor, while taking over Hammerfell was Talos' last step in unifying the land. After he conquered Hammerfell, he finallly ended the Second Era. So most information that we have about Interegnum time, besides Elder Scrolls online, happened during it's final century out of entire 400 years or more of it's duration. I would say that lore writers, need to work on filling out the blank spots in time lines and telling us what really happened. Just like with Alesian Emprie which lasted 1000 or more years and yet we know only two rulers from that Dynasty, Alesia herself and that Emperor who is mentioned in Rislav the Ritheous, who possibly grandson or great grandson of Alesia. We need to know more lore, lore writers, so do write more!
