Why do most of you assume that the Empire will ally with the Dominion? Nothing could be further from the truth. The White Gold Concordat doesn't make them allies, the Empire hates the Thalmor just as much as the Nords do.

Even if the Stormcloaks do win, it is unlikely that they will find allies anywhere given their rampant xenephobia, certainly not with Hammerfell, who is one of the more isloationist provinces in Tamriel, and not with High Rock, because the Bretons value trade above all.

The Dunmer are unlikely to side with anyone, given their problem with the Argonians and Red Mountain. The Argonians don't really care about anything except Black Marsh and vengence.

The Dominion might be having the same problems as the Empire, they have intiated pogroms in Valenwood, and assassinated the Mane, which is sure to have pissed off the Khajiit.
