Lore:Second Treaty of Stros M'Kai

< Lore: Appendices(Redirected from Lore:Second Treaty of Stros M'kai)

The Second Treaty of Stros M'Kai was a treaty signed in 4E 180 between the Aldmeri Dominion and the Redguards of Hammerfell. It marked the end of a decade-long attempt by the Dominion to conquer the region after both sides had reached a stalemate. The conditions of the treaty compelled the Dominion to withdraw all of its military forces from Hammerfell.

Critics of Emperor Titus Mede II's acquiescence to the White-Gold Concordat that ended the Great War five years earlier took the Redguards' successful resistance as proof that the Aldmeri Dominion and the Thalmor could have been defeated. Hammerfell's relations with the Empire remained strained after the treaty despite their mutual opposition to the Aldmeri Dominion. The Redguards believed that they had been betrayed when Titus II first agreed to the White-Gold Concordat, which stipulated that a significant portion of Hammerfell be ceded to the Dominion, then renounced Hammerfell as an Imperial province when it protested the Concordat's terms. Following the Second Treaty of Stros M'Kai, Hammerfell was left an independent yet severely diminished nation.[1] A secretive Hammerfell organization known as the Remnants was tasked with the responsibility of making sure the Aldmeri Dominion held up their end of the treaty, and had agents secretly looking into potential treaty violations.[2]
