Well, forgetting that Tiber Septim actaully has no official descendants left (his son/grandson was killed and he had no heirs, so the throne went to Tiber's niece) and all the succession issues, a fair portion of the Seprim Empire's lifespan left Tamriel in a rather sordid state. And funny thing is, if you believe the story, Alessia is Reman's ma, and Alessia is synonymous with a mound of mud that Reman's pa, *ahem*, "laboured" against. Oh and isn't it mentioned that the Medes are actually fairly competent? Too bad ol' Titus and his heirs got handed with a ruined empire to begin with...
