Let's say a road might go through a giant's territory, they might start attacking the people who go on that road. So no, they're not always peaceful.

The Nord towns in Skyrim like Riverwood, Karthwasten, and Dragon Bridge DO consist of all races. Whlie things like the Khajiit Caravan do not. And they have less people. This is why Ulfric might send his soldiers to the Nord towns more, because since he's a war he only has a limited amount of soldiers he can use for law enforcement.

The Nords are not oppressing any peaceful settlers. The Dunmer are not oppressed by the Stormcloaks and neither are the Argonians. The Dunmer have their own part of the city, Ulfric doesn't need to help them because they don't pay taxes, and govern themselves. Read the Decree of Monument in Refugee's Rest. This is not a sign of oppression at all.

This is ridiculous. I already explained why they would say that. Also, where did you hear that from? Ulfric has more then enough city guards to round those two up. The thing is, he chooses not to because he's not racist. Those two probably pledged featility and therefor can live in the regular city and get help from the government.

A High King needs to be able to fight. They lead fights, so combat prowess does matter. Which Ulfric clearly had better then Torygg. Why would Skyrim want this weak man as opposed to Ulfric. Who is strong and understands politics and how to run a country?
