Why did wizards and warriors state in the most recent elderscrolls video that it would be their last one their is so much more to cover the war of the red diamond and Cameron the usurper the formation of the skyrim empire and so much more to cover the I just don't understand why they would stop
@@alfieingrouille1528 frankly, you are correct,same thing with The Witcher lore,sure they covered the major wars and battles in Witcher world but they can still make few videos that explore:religion,realms,creatures or economy of Witcher world. Just saying.
@@dominikbradvica9406 also a interesting point to be made specifically about the witcher is they chose one of a few possible endings they could talk about alsorts things within said universe
@@dominikbradvica9406 I think it is the same team that works on kings and generals so they focus where most viewers are I guess but I would definitely love to see more of skyrim and others here.

This is THE best video about Tamriel lore and history I've ever seen BY FAR. The narrator is absolutely amazing and sounds very professional, the writing is captivating yet authentic, and the visuals are so detailed - this whole video really feels like an actual documentary about a real historic era! I love everything about this, thank you guys for providing us this masterpiece!
Yeah I have been a fan of the kings and generals channel for years and never knew they had this channel for fantasy lore but in their style that they use for real world history on the main channel.
21:30 This is exactly why I love Elder Scrolls lore. The history of Tamriel is to us by characters who lived in that world. Characters with their own beliefs and morals and and intepretations. Rather than give us the story through some wise elder or a history book of absolute canon, we have to gather the pieces from various, conflicting sources. This makes the world feel so much more alive, interesting and believable. Even if they are the roughest looking elves ever or giant lizards or cartoon vikings/romans.
@@FirstMetalHamster there are 300 books in skyrim aline, its not lazy writing. There are consistent thoroughlines in the lore. The way they do it actually takes much more effort than having a single canon lore.
this video is SO GOOD. it deserves so many views seriously. extremely well made, informational, and the animations were perfect. the problem with a lot of elder scrolls channels is the lack of diagrams to show the wars/history but you had the PERFECT diagram, and used it the whole time. good fuckin job guys!!
It's sad to me that people keep pointing out inconsistencies in the map but those inconsistencies come from Bethesda themselves. They keep changing little details of both the world and the map. Which is fine from a gameplay standpoint... Extremely tough from a total lore standpoint.
The Septim Dynasty never fails to amuse me, simply because no one after Pelagius I is even related to him directly, Truly shows the unending love of Shor/Shezzar/Akatosh/Lorkhan has for Men, and for Tiber himself, that any Septim after his Grandson was able to light the Dragonfires. The dynasty started with a lying mortal man who was Three Pieces, but became One God, And it ended with a lying mortal man, who was Three Pieces, and became the One. FUCK I LOVE THIS SERIES.
8:30 - “In his effort to make love with a magic mountain, (the mad king) would expire…” That had me in stitches stated in such a matter of fact manner as you do - lol.
While the lore is quite interesting, I've come to the conclusion the only playable game in that series is Dragon Age: Origins and its expansion. DA2 is ridiculously tedious and repetitive and Inquisition has horrendous controls, forces you to craft and therefore hunt for ingredients for hours upon hours...and makes your party members rather useless potion-guzzlers unless you micromanage them - the tactics options are massively streamlined. Origins was Baldur's Gate's successor. I'm saddened to see how "mainstream" this series has become.
@@Darkdaej wouldnt rly call it mainstream, cause even complex games can sell. its just simplified, for what reasons idk. but bioware has a hard time surviving thx to it.
@@TheModmc My guess is "Pressure from EA" Origins probably didn't sell as well as EA would have liked due to it catering to the cRPG fans. Despite a modern interface, for a 2007 game it remains daunting for the gaming casuals...and that was the point. DA2 was obviously made for the "hardcore gamer" and it suffered for it. DA:I seems to have been an effort to go back to the principles of Origins while being whipped by EA for "popular" features. *Whipcrack* It's 2014, crafting is all the rage, put that in the game! Hardcore gamers don't want to perform complicated sidequests and EARN their loot anymore! *Whipcrack* We need multiplayer to generate microtransactions! *Whipcrack* make the Qunari less dogmatic, they aren't personable! EDIT: Seriously, the Sten from Origins...who's supposed to be the Arishok at this point IIRC would have slain Iron Bull on the spot for his blatant disregard of the Qun...and would never have allowed a trans into his people. The man couldn't even understand the concept of Leliana being a woman and being a warrior at the same time. Seriously I'm not surprised Bioware lost most of their original talent team at this point.
There are so many other wars and events in Elder Scrolls history, I'd love if you guys would make even more videos on other events than the main story, like the Ra Gada, for example
Sorry for the late response, but I think that is the actual problem Bethesda has with the property. All the other races backstory is roughly flushed out in mythos, except for the Redguards. It may be why the next Elder Scrolls is going to be set in Hammerfel. Doesn't mean there isn't interesting stuff, like Vivec (god) was slain by the Yokudan King and his sword strike is what sank Yokuda. That it was over Vivec's kids that he had with Yokudans. Even with that rich info, you have to do a lot of searching to find out how Vivec came back to life and realize that's why he has two origin stories. One being born mortal and one being born a god. If someone doesn't know (cause it isn't easy to put together) it's hard to make a vid for. Even with that there isn't an origin story, just that the Yokudans have been in universe, and all I can have is a theory it is possibly longer than the Altmer, and Nocturna knows this (and Hema Mora hasn't figured it out yet). Sadly though you can't make those summizings the basis of factual vids, and that is about all anyone can do at this point until the canon is written.
@@timyuusis3372 I wouldn't say nothing, but pretty close. It is all outside in except for Sai Sahan and lore books here and there. A few stories on the first activation of a few people's blades, culling the blue goblins (bet Malacath is real happy about that one), and what Vivec wrote of his stay there. Vivec's thievery even shows up in his title as Warrior-Poet since one of the things Redguards are supposed to be good at is the physical arts. Redguard bards (can't remember what they are called) are supposed to be all over. The pantheon is all flushed out, but it would suggest that Redguards are not from this iteration of the universe as a whole. That Tall Papa actually is the reason they are here now. Crowns believe Tall Papa is Manus (Imperial insertion), but Forebears do not. Since there was an entire game dedicated to Redguards there is a lot more lore than people might think. It is a official side TES game, but most people don't know it is there.
That is actually an excellent point. This is just the "brief overview" of Tamriel's history. There are countless stories, tales, battles, kingdoms and rags to riches stories and guilds and factions and insert extra item here that you can delve nearly as deep into within this overview lol.
I am so, SO happy this page exists! I’ve been a Kings and Generals fan for a few years now and have always loved your diction. Now we get fantasy lore? I can’t get enough! Thank you for being awesome!
Please keep working on these Elder Scrolls videos! RUclips isn't properly recommending/promoting these videos. I should have been made aware of this series month's ago. They're great! Awesome work!
The empire dies with the end of the septims. Only the the worship of tiber septim kept it united. Stormcloaks are more loyalist to the old empire than the imperials
Out of one hour and forty-three minutes, only a couple minutes are related to the civil war. What exactly is the overbearing reason(s) for supporting one over the other?
@@Jonas_æHonestly the leader of the stormcloaks is a racist, evil, arrogant a$$ with no actual plans to accomplish anything and he wouldn’t accomplish anything at all including escape his execution if not for the ridiculously broken overpowered dragon born joining his side, single handedly winning the civil war and essentially handing the rest of The Empire over to the thalmor, not immediately but it guarantees the fall. The Empire has problems but it is the greatest political organization and the only truly capable faction of dealing with the thalmor and every other threat, so long as it remains unified. All it takes is a single playthrough as the stormcloaks to realize you were played for an absolute fool by a man who is the king of fools. Not to mention he betrays his people on several occasions and forces you to kill a man that offered you sanctuary when your path began. You kill almost as many citizens of Skyrim as you do Imperials. He’s just a fking idiot, not to mention he is waging this pointless civil war while dozens of muddafkin dragons avail the countryside. He is selfish af and cares nothing for the people of skyrim only himself. Honestly imo dude is unforgivably selfish and like actually evil.
Holy shit! Kings and Generals now does TES lore. This is literally the best video (after the cat vibing to ievan polka) I have seen. Great work, keep it up!
I love this video so much, I could just watch/listen to it on repeat. Everything about it is absolutely perfect, one of my favorite videos of all time. If only it was 10 hours long! 😂
1:12:53 I think you mean the White-Gold Tower in Cyrodiil, not High Rock. Also, there are a couple of pronunciation mistakes. Great video nonetheless! With almost a 2 hour long video, a few mistakes will always slip through the cracks. Keep up the great work!
@@viderevero1338 Yeah, probably. Still, when they did the Great War video, they mentioned the "Imperial Palace was burned, the White-Gold Temple was looted, and all manner of atrocities were committed by the vengeful Elves on the innocent populous" So I mean, they HAVE to know which tower they were looting, no?
This series.....it's amazing. Second time watching this. Initially watched it in pieces when released, now the grand culmination. Gosh. I cannot express how wonderfully made and presented this is. Stupendous.
People seem to forget that 4/5 mainline games take place in almost direct series of each other and in almost all of them you are hinted at or states as being an agent of Uriel Septim
This was an amazing, succinct video and I love your voice! I felt like I was attending a lecture from a scholar in Cyrodil lol. The background music was also on point
Absolutely loved this series! ❤️🔥 Will you ever do a video with the Orsimer featured in it? You kind of left them out talking about the birth of each Elven race and the Redguard settlement of Hammerfell (they, Goblins, and native Nedes were the “natives” that they fought).
Ive been subbed to kings and generals for years. I never knewthis channel existed until tonight. Wow! Ive played Morrowind when it came out years ago. And i always had skyrim. So literally in 2024 i started grinding and trying to beat it for the first time. My favorite book in the entire game is the wolf queen series. I want to play around those characters so bad! Ugh! The hulking vokkhen on those books is my favorite character! (Sorry if mispelled) Also. I wish in Skyrim. Instead of ending Potema's attemptes resurrection. I wish we could of brought her back and put her on the thrown! So good. So very good!
"A loyal Imperial citizen would know that. Perhaps there's something you wish to confess ?" (Remains silent) (Silent w/a very large anticipatory sword waving in the air)
Hands down the epitome of geekiness. Best internet video of 2023. Congrats on making a video that encompasses everything nostalgic of the best parts of nerdom. ❤️10/10
Wondering, if you will cover in the future videos, the lore of "Dark Crystal" in regards to the world of Thra. You have been doing a fine job lately with your videos.
What do a rebel Jarl, one of his subordinates, a horse thief and a random person illegally crossing the boarder have in common? All fair game for the headsman.
One of the reasons I tend to side with the StormCloaks. The Redguards already left, so did the Argonians (if they ever really were part of the Empire), The Khajiit after that Moon fiasco (Either the elves lied or they caused the moons to disappear too) joined the Thalmor cause... The Empire has already lost. Nords are better off fighting for Skyrim than spread out into other realms where they don't have the kind of familiarity with the environment they have in Skyrim. So there's East-Skyrim on Storm-cloak side, West-Skyrim on Empire-side and one neutral Jarldom in the middle. You, the Dragonborn, decide which side wins; you can become Thane in all nine realms, slay or dominate the Dark Brotherhood; become the Leader of the mages, warriors and thieves... Never mind if they call their professional society a guild or not. And just how do they manage to put it into the history books later and have ALL your choices in the game be true? (Well, DB is likely a matter of rumors, and you kill Astrid in either path anyway.) But how could they not have clear record about which side of the Civil War won? Will they be called DragonBornside vs. others or something?
5:53 or was it Akatosh? There are some theories it was actually Lorkhan who contacted her but in order not to ruin relations with certain groups (elves) she lied about it being Akatosh to keep them happy
Another great series! But where are the Orcs (or Orsimer) in all of this? Aren't they a big enough deal to be mentioned in a series like this since they are a playable faction? Where (or what) is Orsinium?
They should do a video of the in game book Mixed Unit Tactics. It's like a perfect video for their style explaining the battle and tactics from the pov of an imperial at the nearby garrison.
Great video about the lore of elder scrolls. Perhaps you can also do one for the book "The Infernal City", story which happens after the Oblivion Crisis. That could be cool
That was a great RPG historical lesson on the Septim Dynasty. What other RPG, Sci Fi, Fantasy and Fictional franchises are you going to do lore video ons?

Would love to see a video of Wolf Queen Potema's Rebellion and also Dread King of Valenwoods Rebellion. Amazing work on all of the videos made on this channel!
It's widely known that the An-Xileel sacked the former capital of Mournhold and even ventured as far as Telvanni lands before being pushed back by the combined efforts of Redoran and Telvanni forces. It's almost a certainty they held southern Deshaan and everything south of Vvardenfell. They pretty much drove Dres and Hlaalu into extinction as those were the houses occupying these lands, and House indoril was reduced to a mere caste of priests as stated in the Reclamations. Blacklight is now the capital also, however Redoran managed to reclaim almost all of that land and now only have clashes near the southern border.
You know the dumbest part of the Great War is the lack of naval battles. The entire time Cyrodiil was under attack, the Emperor could have sent ships from the imperial city, or other provinces, to lay siege to the Summerset Isles. Cut the head of the snake, and the body shall fall and all that, which is the philosophy the Thalmor took when attacking the capital.
3:16 Ayleids were called Heartland High Elves. Wild Elves is the name of the remnants of their race who fled across Tamriel after the Alessian Slave Rebellion. Besides that great video.
Cool vid, some notes to add: while argonians seceded and khajit bowed to thalmor, orcs and dark elves were both still part of the empire. The empire intervened a bit when orsinium was sacked by some bretons and redguards, and skyrim took in a ton of dunmer refugees as well as granted them solstheim. The thalmor helped incite argonian invasions of morrowind, so there's 0 chance of dunmer ever supporting thalmor or tolerating further rise, even if they have strained relations with humans
We'll probably have to wait until TES6 drops before we know the canon for Skyrim. The civil war plays too much of a part in how the rest of the history will play out.
@@TheStarrySept I hope they keep everything as vague as possible yes the dragonborn defeated alduin but everything else is up to each person's interpretation yes all the faction questlines played out but it just wasn't the dragonborn doing it
just a small tidbit, the Altmer first landed in what is now called 'Firsthold' in Summerset and they spread to Alinor afterward. But also to note, if the "Tamriel is Aldmeris" theory is true than the Altmer were the first inhabitants of Tamriel or the 'Ehlnofey' as they were I suppose.

Absolutely loved this series! ❤️🔥 Will you ever do a video with the Orsimer featured in it? You kind of left them out talking about the birth of each Elven race and the Redguard settlement of Hammerfell (they, Goblins, and native Nedes were the “natives” that they fought).
Is anybody else wishing there was an Elder Scrolls total war game?! Like it would be amazing!
The narration and the animation in these videos is so good, really appreciate this channel.
Thank you.
I love those long videos thanks for your work!
I really like the history reference from our universe, just like the carthage one.
I thought they weren't going to make another video on this lore...
But...
I am glad they did!
They didn't make another video they just combined them all into one.
@@facepunchgaming4134 sadly true

I realized that later...
At least, better than nothing... 🤔
Ive been subbed to kings and generals for years. I never knewthis channel existed until tonight. Wow! Ive played Morrowind when it came out years ago. And i always had skyrim. So literally in 2024 i started grinding and trying to beat it for the first time. My favorite book in the entire game is the wolf queen series. I want to play around those characters so bad! Ugh! The hulking vokkhen on those books is my favorite character! (Sorry if mispelled) Also. I wish in Skyrim. Instead of ending Potema's attemptes resurrection. I wish we could of brought her back and put her on the thrown! So good. So very good!
AWESOME!!!!!! Great video, appreciate your work! "subbed" 🍻
Amazing how time and time again the unnamed hero is either in prison or about to have their head removed...
I really enjoyed this 😅 kept coming back to it. It's taken 3x days to get through though. Just my situation through the week.

Love these videos!
Great video. Unlike other videos were I can just listen too. Ur made something I can actually watch n be interested in
Ur? Dagoth Ur? Progenitor of the Sixth House? Lord of Dreams? By Azura!
This is fantastic, thank you so much, I love the Elder Scrolls lore and you have done a great jobs creating this video!
You somehow managed to mispronounce almost every single name in this video. Nevertheless, good video! Very impressed with the visuals.
Wait! I thought you said the previous episode on TES was going to be the final installment!? O.o
Gods be praised it was not so! Thank you! :D
Will you be covering the battles of non-western works? Such as the Fourth Shinobi World War from Naruto, or the Raid on Onigashima from One Piece.
Hands down the epitome of geekiness. Best internet video of 2023. Congrats on making a video that encompasses everything nostalgic of the best parts of nerdom. ❤️10/10
I just realized this channel does elderscrolls lemme grab my popcorn
Wondering, if you will cover in the future videos, the lore of "Dark Crystal" in regards to the world of Thra.
You have been doing a fine job lately with your videos.
This is one of my favorite movies 💖
The video is top quality, and amazing. The pronunciations could use some work though
Honestly great video. It is so good it made me buy Skyrim!
What do a rebel Jarl, one of his subordinates, a horse thief and a random person illegally crossing the boarder have in common? All fair game for the headsman.
One of the reasons I tend to side with the StormCloaks. The Redguards already left, so did the Argonians (if they ever really were part of the Empire), The Khajiit after that Moon fiasco (Either the elves lied or they caused the moons to disappear too) joined the Thalmor cause... The Empire has already lost. Nords are better off fighting for Skyrim than spread out into other realms where they don't have the kind of familiarity with the environment they have in Skyrim. So there's East-Skyrim on Storm-cloak side, West-Skyrim on Empire-side and one neutral Jarldom in the middle. You, the Dragonborn, decide which side wins; you can become Thane in all nine realms, slay or dominate the Dark Brotherhood; become the Leader of the mages, warriors and thieves... Never mind if they call their professional society a guild or not. And just how do they manage to put it into the history books later and have ALL your choices in the game be true? (Well, DB is likely a matter of rumors, and you kill Astrid in either path anyway.) But how could they not have clear record about which side of the Civil War won? Will they be called DragonBornside vs. others or something?
Like a General from a state called Carthage in another Universe!!! Second Punic War! Love it!!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅
5:53 or was it Akatosh? There are some theories it was actually Lorkhan who contacted her but in order not to ruin relations with certain groups (elves) she lied about it being Akatosh to keep them happy
Great video!
Yes this will go nicely in my work playlist. Thank you!
You know, I've been watching Kings and Generals stuff at random for a while. Had no idea this channel existed.
Time to consume content.
This makes the wait for Elder Kings 2 so much more painful
I enjoyed this storytelling quite a bit, so you've got a new subscriber!!
Oblivion gate opens and everyone runs away of fright, the bipedal reptiles? Charge headlong into the gates! I've always liked playing em!
And now for all 3 Aldmeri Dominions, in one video. 👍🏾🤷🏿
I listened to this at work
Love it
It's very nice to hear Chimer pronounced correctly.
Another great series! But where are the Orcs (or Orsimer) in all of this? Aren't they a big enough deal to be mentioned in a series like this since they are a playable faction? Where (or what) is Orsinium?
They should do a video of the in game book Mixed Unit Tactics. It's like a perfect video for their style explaining the battle and tactics from the pov of an imperial at the nearby garrison.
This is the video I’ve always wanted! Thank you!
Just found this channel. I'm going to be up all night.
Excellent presentation. Tyvm W&W
man this was good
For a Elder scrolls video I've got to say it's like watching epic history all over again
Love it absolutely fantastic
I can't wait for the next Elder Scrolls game!
Great video about the lore of elder scrolls. Perhaps you can also do one for the book "The Infernal City", story which happens after the Oblivion Crisis. That could be cool
That was a great RPG historical lesson on the Septim Dynasty. What other RPG, Sci Fi, Fantasy and Fictional franchises are you going to do lore video ons?

Would love to see a video of Wolf Queen Potema's Rebellion and also Dread King of Valenwoods Rebellion. Amazing work on all of the videos made on this channel!
SeptiMania is gonna run Wild on the Snakemen!
Lol minor typo on the Akavir map but SeptiMania and Uriel MachoMan Septum love the support Brother!
"In his efforts to make love to a magic mountain" bro 😂
So Good. Thanks.
Fantastic! Fi ally I understand the elder scrolls.
can you guys make more elder scrolls videos please

It's widely known that the An-Xileel sacked the former capital of Mournhold and even ventured as far as Telvanni lands before being pushed back by the combined efforts of Redoran and Telvanni forces. It's almost a certainty they held southern Deshaan and everything south of Vvardenfell. They pretty much drove Dres and Hlaalu into extinction as those were the houses occupying these lands, and House indoril was reduced to a mere caste of priests as stated in the Reclamations. Blacklight is now the capital also, however Redoran managed to reclaim almost all of that land and now only have clashes near the southern border.
You know the dumbest part of the Great War is the lack of naval battles. The entire time Cyrodiil was under attack, the Emperor could have sent ships from the imperial city, or other provinces, to lay siege to the Summerset Isles. Cut the head of the snake, and the body shall fall and all that, which is the philosophy the Thalmor took when attacking the capital.
....Yeah, the problem is that a naval battle overwhelmingly favors the Dominion, not the Empire.
You realise the Dominion is known for its *superior* navy, right?
1:12:55 White Gold Tower is in the Imperial City, not High Rock
Pure entertainment and lore I love this! 🙌
Awesome animation
Thank you.
Watching this makes you forget Tamriel isn’t a real place.. well done indeed
More like this these are great! Lengthy
3:16 Ayleids were called Heartland High Elves. Wild Elves is the name of the remnants of their race who fled across Tamriel after the Alessian Slave Rebellion.
Besides that great video.
Uriel V (the akaviri invasion one) was supposed to return from Akavir and be the original villain for ESV: Skyrim
Cool vid, some notes to add: while argonians seceded and khajit bowed to thalmor, orcs and dark elves were both still part of the empire. The empire intervened a bit when orsinium was sacked by some bretons and redguards, and skyrim took in a ton of dunmer refugees as well as granted them solstheim. The thalmor helped incite argonian invasions of morrowind, so there's 0 chance of dunmer ever supporting thalmor or tolerating further rise, even if they have strained relations with humans
Id love to see you play games or maybe do a compare and contrast game to lore, especially with conan
I was shock how deep the lore is
Very minor error, but high hrothgar is way to high up in the map, it should be on the south-east of whiterun
This video was a pleasure to watch. Like to see a video of elder scrolls skyrim, as a continuation to this video.
How would they even begin to do that the events in the actual game are extremely heavly influenced by the player it's not a gameplay channel
We'll probably have to wait until TES6 drops before we know the canon for Skyrim. The civil war plays too much of a part in how the rest of the history will play out.
@@TheStarrySept I hope they keep everything as vague as possible yes the dragonborn defeated alduin but everything else is up to each person's interpretation yes all the faction questlines played out but it just wasn't the dragonborn doing it
just a small tidbit, the Altmer first landed in what is now called 'Firsthold' in Summerset and they spread to Alinor afterward.
But also to note, if the "Tamriel is Aldmeris" theory is true than the Altmer were the first inhabitants of Tamriel or the 'Ehlnofey' as they were I suppose.
