It is located on the planet of [[Nirn]], which is the mortal realm of the finite and the partial, as opposed to the immortal realms of the infinite and the absolute. In the Elder Scrolls, ''Mundus'', another name for Nirn, is the E(contracted; show full)ra, in which [[Mer (Elder Scrolls)|Mer]] (Elves) first arrived in Tamriel and all manner of mythological occurrences are said to have taken place.

Aldmeri records, on the other hand, date back to the beginning of ME, however these are not open to Imperial scholars.

The centre of the Empire was [[Cyrodiil]], which was the home of both the Emperor and the Elder Council, which serves administrative functions and as an interim government during times of instability. Upon the death of the Emperor, the new Emperor is usually the oldest legitimate child (preferably a son) of the dead (contracted; show full)
