Lore talk:Empires
Notes on this articleEdit
When writing this page it became obvious to me there is an overlap of some content from other pages, but that unavoidable given the subject. To mitigate this, I've made custom summaries for the longer entries that link off to a main page (like Ayleid Empire). These pages can't be transcluded easily without getting messy or looking poor. Some entries will have new pages that are transcluded. Some shorter entries I've customised as individual entries that are not transcluded and wouldn't work as transcluded stand-alone pages anyway because the info is so little anyway (like Sload Kingdoms). Also, Lore:Tamrielic Emperors and the Appendices box will be adjusted to accommodate these changes. Several tweaks still to do. --Jimeee (talk) 23:54, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
Dwarven KingdomsEdit
I don't know if it is relevant to this page or not, and I didn't see a spot where it would fit nicely into what is already there, but it might be worth noting that the Dwemer had a presence in Hammerfell via Mzeneldt before 1E 198. Mindtrait0r (talk) 21:53, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
Empires vs KingdomsEdit
I see that some of these entries are not truly empires and are instead either singular kingdoms or groups of kingdoms in a province by the definition given in the page. Nations such as the First Empire of the Nords, the Ayleid Empire, the Direnni Hegemony, the Lefthanded Empire, the Yokudan Empire, the Imperial Empires, etc are indeed empires by definition (and of course, regardless of definition, what the lore has titled an empire would count as an empire as well). However, many of the entries on this page only consist of mere kingdoms, such as those of Black Marsh, Hammerfell, High Rock, Skyrim, Pyandonea, Alinor, etc. Would it be best to split this into an "Empires" section and a separate "Kingdoms" section below it? For now I'll make the section split, alongside a "dynasty" section. BananaKing5 (talk) 07:23, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
