Who owns each province of Tamriel ?

Yes, Skyrim belong to the Nords, Hammerfell belong to the Redguard, Black Marsh to Argonians and all of that. But It's not really this way that it works, since Nords, for example, needed to declare war in their own land to seek what they desire.

Which province of Tamriel belongs to the Empire and which belongs to other factions ? All of them.

In the Fourth Era of course.

My source is from Elder Scrolls Wikia and UESP.

Political Map of Tamriel

  • Empire: Skyrim*, Cyrodiil, High Rock.
  • Aldmeri Dominion: Summerset Isles, Elsweyr, Valenwood.
  • Argonian State: Morrowind, Black Marsh.
  • Independent Provinces: Hammerfell, Skyrim*.

*Depends on player's choice on Skyrim's Civil War.

Though, because of the White-gold concordat, the Aldmeri Dominion has HEAVY influence on the Empire, meaning they have a 5~6 province influence on Tamriel

Hammerfell is the only province that defeated the Aldemri Dominion, and Morrowind and Black Marsh are the only provinces that still haven't been attacked.

A curiosity, is that, while in Skyrim, the Thalmor are considered "bad guys," in Elsweyr, they are considered heroes by the Khajiit For restoring the two moons of Nirn, and I haven't checked what Bosmers think of them.

The Bosmer were one of the founding races of the second Dominion, along with the Altmer. – Tacroy Jul 16 '12 at 4:39
Should have guessed, they even look almost exactly the same. – Ramirez Jul 16 '12 at 16:00
They're also both "mer" :) – Tacroy Jul 16 '12 at 16:08
Well, there is also Orsimer(Orc), Manmer(Breton), Dunmer(Dark Elf) and fortunately, they are not part of the Dominion, yet. – Ramirez Jul 16 '12 at 16:40
@Ramirez "Should have guessed, they even look almost exactly the same." That's racist! =) – galacticninja Jul 17 '12 at 3:26
