Its rumored the aldmeri dominion tries to keep the war going. Both sides are mostly made up of nords from Skyrim. The civil war helps keep the empire weak while also pitting a group known to hate elves against each other. Many stormcloaks would glady fight along with imperials if they were spilling high elf blood.

On the one hand, I sympathize with the Stormcloaks over the religious shit (the concordant banned Talos worship). I mean, the gods actually exist in this world so that’s kinda fucked up.
On the other, once I got to Windhelm, I kinda didn’t care about that anymore.

And also Talos died and ascended to godhood a long time ago, so he isn’t around in person to cast holy smite upon any of the dipshits preaching war crimes in his name.
Basically, Talos is the in-universe Jesus.
