Aldmeri Dominion Display Tamriel Map Display Item Map
Literally translated, Home of the Elves, the Dominion has a relatively recent history, forming in 2E 830 by the realms of Summerset Ilse and Valenwood when the heirs of the Camoran Dynasty began to fight over the Valenwood throne. A faction of Bosmer attempted to make peace with their enemies in in the Colovian Estates by offering part of the Valenwood territory in exchange for the faction's claimant. The Altmer, upon hearing of this, invaded Valenwood citing a stewardship clause in a thousand year old treaty. The Altmer quickly established the Thalmor as the government in Valenwood on behalf of their claimant Camoran Anaxemes (who's former descendants made the original treaty a thousand years before). As the Empire was still recovering from the Interregnum the Colovian armies were easily forced back by the Elves and the Aldmeri dominion was born.

The Thalmor strengthened its hold on Valenwood province during the foundations of the Third Empire and Bosmer tribes continued to skirmish with the Colovian Estates under the rule of the High Elves. With the Empire reunited under Tiber Septim the attacks subsided although each side remained encamped on the border waiting for a decisive battle. At sea, the Elven forces were considerably more powerful and the Dominion was able to hold the southern waters from the Cape of the Blue Divide to the Topal Bay. The Elves made allies with some Reachmen, the Maormer of Pyandonea, and the Elsweyr Conferdaracy. Although there was no formal declaration of war, Tamriel is divided between the Empire and the Elder Races.

the Alik'r Display Tamriel Map Display Item Map
A substantial desert in the interior of Hammerfell province.

Alinor Display Tamriel Map Display Item Map
A forbidden city for almost 50 years, Alinor is the capital of the Summerset Isles as well as the center of the Aldmeri Dominion. Human traders are usually only allowed on its ports and have described the city as made from glass or insect wings. By any account the beauty of the city would easily rival any of those found on the mainland.

Almalexia Display Tamriel Map Display Item Map
Almalexia is the largest and oldest city in Morrowind named for one of the Tribunal, its patron dieties. The city is the capital of the province and the clan Indoril as well as the Tribunal cult. Almalexia is a truly ancient city, possibly predating the Dark Elves themselves. It is rumoured to be built over the ruins of a vast Dwarven city, although this is denied by its inhabitants.

A major city of Cyrodiil on its western coastline.

Argonia Display Tamriel Map Display Item Map
The vast swamplands were once a part of the Second Empire which seized a large portion of the province in 1E 2837 to create the province of Black Marsh. Many humans still refer to it by that name although the Elves have named it Argonia after an ancient battefield where many Mer died. The collection of lizard-like beastfolk have thus been named Argonians. Black Marsh never regained its provincial status after the fall of the Second Empire though some parts of it are still considered Imperial territory. In 2E 560 the Knahaten Flu swept through the province, killing most of the Kothringi tribes still living it the region. The hist proved to be immune to the flu which lead to rumours that they were somehow responsible for creating the plague via manipulation of their spore-trees.
