As I said, it's just an assumption. But think about it: had Tiber Septim been an Elf, would the Nords have joined him so quickly, after only a single defeat? Nords, who are renowned for their tenacity and "never surrender" attitude, giving up almsot instantly to join him? The fact he was a Nord and that Tamriel would be ruled by a Nord must have influenced their decision to give in so quickly.
