Me: *Kills a Stormcloak* "Democrats." And, in case you were wondering, the Aldmeri do indeed represent the economy. |

Stormcloak.
Ulfric is actually a really cool guy once you actually get on good terms with him.
That ending to the Stormcloak questline really got me mad though, as they completely ignored me in the speech.
let's cut his feet off |

Empire.
At first I was neutral, but my experience with the Stormcloaks was that they are racist jerks.
"skyrim belongs to da nords!!"
Yeah, but the nords technically speaking didn't originate from skyrim, so it doesn't really make sense to be xenophobic to people travelling to skyrim, now does it?
They just assume that because I'm a khajiit I must be a thief or a skooma dealer (okay, so this might be true, but still)
Without the empire it would be a bunch of constantly warring clans, and no unity in power. |

@mouseworks you're forgetting that the elves were winning the war previously and the empire needs skyrim to help them only unified can they defeat the elves, and the elves know this, and as such, view ulfric as subconsciously helping them |

@Mouseworks
"skyrim belonged to nords"
ahahaha no
it wasn't even theirs to begin with
they invaded and took it for themselves, now they believe it is righteously theirs
admittedly this was centuries ago but still
"empire banned talos,we shud praise who we want2"
fair point
stormcloaks are such xenophobic racists that I didn't feel compelled to join them
I get racist insults from guards all the time D:

| If I had to choose, Stormcloaks. However, I'd like to run in there, and make it a major free-for-all. |

I went with the Empire Skyrim NEVER belonged to the Nords If I remember the lore correctly, the Nords CAME to Skyrim from ATMORA, AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CONTINENT Then they set up a settlement called Saarthal but the Snow Elves massacred them in the Night of Tears So the survivors left Then later, Ysgramor(OF ATMORA) came to Skyrim(FROM ATMORA) with the 500 Companions(AKA WARRIORS OF ATMORA) and basically killed all the elves in the area from what I understand
Then again, in this sense, Hammerfell doesn't really belong to the Redguards because they came to Tamriel from Yokuda but Yokuda sank into the ocean so its different

Stormcloaks are racist.
The Empire are the equivalent of slavers.
Both kind of suck. Pick your poison. |

In defense of the Stormcloaks The Nords WERE massacred by Snow Elves But against them they're pretty racist towards anyone who isn't a Nord I mean, they couldn't even give Argonians a place to live IN the city though that might be to stop the Dark Elves and Argonians from ruining the city more than it already is

yes they did
the atmorans didn't, they originated from atmora but conquered skyrim in prehistoric times, then they became the nords |

You have to pick the "I'd be honored" speech option after Ulfric asks you if you'll stand by his side.
Anyway, FOR THE TRUE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF SKYRIM! |

you remember it incorrectly
the nords descend from the atmorans, who were the ones who settled skyrim at first, pretty much making the nords native to skyrim
there are actually only like two races that could have any claim to skyrim, and that's the nords and the snow elves. one of them is mostly extinct and the other is a thriving, fluorishing culture
also, the near-extinction of the snow elves is because of the dwemer, who enslaved them and made them into the falmer, who are not snow elves |

No, it's just the other option is "You'd better leave me out of your speech..."

wait no when I said the elf massacre I was thinking of Talos not Ysgramor never mind Also I was hoping there would be some kind of DLC where the Falmer could be somewhat reasonable, building on what the Snow Elf Knight-Paladin said during the quest in the Forgotten Vale
