Ebonheart Pact

The Ebonheart pact is a major faction in the upcoming MMO, The Elder Scrolls Online.

The Ebonheart pact faction was formed some time during the second era, when a war for power took place throughout all of Tamriel.

Before the war had began, Akaviri soldiers in the mountains of southern Skyrim became a threat to the people of Skyrim. The Dunmer of Morrowind offered a pact to the Nords of Skyrim, who gladly accepted the military support. This was essentially the birth of the Ebonheart Pact.

When the war broke out and Tamriel fell apart, civil unrest and sporadic combat occurred in the swampy areas of Black Marsh. The Province allied with Morrowind and Skyrim as the third addition to the Ebonheart Pact. The alliance began fighting in the war against the Aldmeri Dominion and the Daggerfall Covenant at an attempt at the Imperial throne and to protect one another from rival factions.

The Pact favors a powerful central government that would work to foster strong trade relations between the provinces of Tamriel and that would maintain a large, organized army to protect the peoples of Tamriel from civil unrest and/or hostile forces like the Akaviri.
