You made a large error when describing Voryn Dagoth's association with Nerevar. Nerevar was not the Dwemer King, he was the Dunmer War Chief/High General/Hortator/Leader at the time of the Battle of Red Mountain. I forgot the name of the Dwemer King (I feel like his name was Numoc, though.), but he was friends with Nerevar and presented Nerevar with his iconic Moon-and-Star Ring. Also, no Dunmer house was allied with the Dwemer. Ever. (Mostly because they were the Chimer up until shortly after the Battle of Red Mountain) Also, Voryn Dagoth was tasked by Nerevar, Almalexia, Vivec, and Sotha Sil with guarding the Tools of Kagrenac so that they wouldn't be used until a decision was reached. Dagoth Ur went behind their backs and used the tools, then tempted them to use them but was struck down by Nerevar, but not before mortally wounding Nerevar in the process. It was Nerevar's dying wish that Almalexia, Vivec, and Sotha Sil swear by Azura that they would not use the tools, and they later broke that promise angering the Daedric Prince, who cursed them and the Chimer, turning all of them into the Dunmer. She also prophesized Nerevar's return, who would later be known as the Nerevarine. That's how the Dunmer and Tribunal came to be. I may not be fully aware of houses being destroyed or new houses, but I'm fairly sure you misspelled House Dagoth several times, because I've never heard of a House Dagon before. Did they name themselves after Mehrunes Dagon or something? I'm fairly certain that House Telvanni doesn't care either way about slavery, since they're fickle mage-lords and all, and that House Indoril was the large slaver House, but I know House Dres also had a large hand in the slave trade, so it could go either way. Redoran was fairly spot on though. I think I remember Sandras being mentioned by someone in Dragonborn. Maybe one of the two leaders of Ravenrock? You didn't really touch on Hlaalu at all and I'm fairly certain they weren't absorbed by the Empire at the time of TES:3-4, but I'm not sure if by the time of TES:5 if they had disbanded or not. Probably some dialogue in Dragonborn I may not remember or had missed. The rest of the post is pretty good, but I keep seeing in other posts how you call the Altmer (High Elves) the Aldmer, (Ancestor/Elder Elves) which is inherently incorrect, just thought I'd point that out. TL;DR: If you don't care about lore, don't bother because this is just nitpicking OPs post to correct some mistakes/point out some things.

  • Also the Dwemer King is Dumac. Sorry for the misinformation :/

  • I was close at least with the Dwemer King's name. Don't worry too much about it, most of the mistakes I've seen in your posts have been relatively minor up until the part my post started with.

  • I should have described some of the things you pointed out in my latest post. I'll see if I can fix "Dagon"

  • Like I said in the TL;DR I was just nitpicking/pointing things out. I like what you're doing, but I thought I'd clarify a few things for you since I saw such a large mistake with Dagoth Ur supposedly being allied with the Dwemer. Seriously though the Aldmer and Altmer are entirely different, you might want to go back and edit your other posts so that any reference to Aldmer that should be Altmer is fixed. Besides that, keep up the good work. Maybe check multiple sources for facts as well instead of just the Imperial Library site, as if what you've posted so far is word-for-word, some of it's incorrect in places.
