    Eh, Skyrim had been part of the empire for ages without much issue. I don’t think the problem is directly with the oppression of Talos worship as it is about what it stands for. Talos was a Man (vs a Mer) who became a Divine, a deity. The Stormcloaks is a rebellion of people who already didn’t like the armistice coopting nationalism and religious dissatisfaction over the only Man-god being pulled down.

    It’s very racial, as evidenced by them focusing on Nord-centric populism, and discriminating against ancestries that aren’t even part of the Aldmeri Dominion like Dunmer and Argonians.
