| Description | Province |
| 'Still largely forested and almost landlocked..:' | |
| '... The northern province of Tamriel, a land of breathtaking beauty and lethal winters.' | |
| '... Much of the landscape is as twisted and mountainous as its neighbor... but it is a hot, desolate land.' | |
| '... A land of temperate climates and soft rolling hills, split in half by the towering Wrothgarian Mountains.' | |
| 'It was desolation, a wasteland where hot winds blew over burning rock' | |
| '...It may be unwise to assume our current Empire will forever stand above the shifting sands of the desert province.' | |
| 'Not a single isle at all but an archipelago of two major islands and a dozen smaller ones.' | |
| 'A sea of endless green, a maze of foliage with half-hidden cities growing like blooms from a flower.' | |
| 'Its heart is inviolate, for so poisonous is its air, ground, and water, its mysteries are secure.' | |
| 'For the past two thousand years it has only existed in the dreams of the ,,, people' | |
