"Cyrodiil was going to be as described in the first PGE, which the book you’re talking about took its quotes from. The heart of the province being what you think of when you think of a traditional jungle, tumbling down to the fields of large rice paddies that fed the Empire, guarded by Romanesque troops and dragons everywhere. The Imperial City was to be vast, rolling across wetlands and swamps, with large sections lost and overgrown, full of too many cults to count, the oldest temples having obviously been around since the Merethic.

Then Todd watched The Fellowship of the Ring and mistakes were made."

–Michael Kirkbride, on Todd Howard's orchestration of the death of art.

I have decide through research and guesstimation bullshittery that Cyrodiil is roughly the size of Germany.

Am I doing this assassin thing right?
