Magic in tamriel is limited. One, not every one can do it, in fact it seems most can't. Two the detruction tree is limited to three or four types. Three the mage can only cast what s/he has the magicka for and their magicka runs out quickly. Plus, we have drones and again, nukes. You are seriously under estimating human technology, most First World nations would be able to win against Tamriel.
