Lore talk:Hammerfell

Useless stuff you might wanna know

Did you know that Hammerfell is a city at the upper-top of norway. 99.185.54.172 21:53, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

You're confused with the settlement of Hammerfest. --Timenn-<talk> 14:57, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Is the head of state really the crowns?

I do not believe the Head of State for Hammerfell should be the Crowns for the following reasons

1. The crowns are a faction/class within Redguard society who follow traditional, anti-imperialist ways and fought against Tiber Septim and rebelled after his victory. It is hard to believe that the Emperor and Elder Council would bestow the rank of leaders of the province to these people.

2. The Pocket Guide to the Empire (3rd edition) states that there are various kingdoms within Hammerfell. This feudalism divides the crowns and forebears alike (Lhoton of Sentinel cannot be king of hammerfell as he is opposed by most other kingdoms). Therefore there is no one ruler of Hammerfell (other than the Emperor) and there is no evidence of a high king (Like in Skyrim)

3. As point 1 states, the crowns are a faction/class in Redguard society. While it is possible that they could be the ruling faction/class, they cannot be the head of state (that is one individual person).

I have not read any of the elder scrolls novels and accept that it is possible the crowns became the ruling faction/class during the chaos of the early 4th era by suppressing the other factions/classes. If anyone has any information that contradicts what I have stated here, please share it. If not, may I please change the information on this page to be more accurate with what I have stated here?

I've removed it from the infobox. I know what it was trying to say - that the head of state is traditionally drawn from the Crowns, but to say that the head of state is the Crowns is wrong. rpeh •T•C•E• 09:35, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

The Dwemer of Hammerfell

The article claims that we don't know what happened to the Dwemer, but it's actually completely unrelated to the incident at Red Mountain. Text found on Redguard History on the Daggerfall Preview CD claims that, "Hammerfell was first occupied by Dwarves. They were a sparse population with just a few riches filled cities. Over night (from another dimension) a new breed of goblins invades - a huge army of fighters appears in the middle of the province, and pillages, raises towns to the ground and drives the surviving Dwarves out. The Dwarves flee through a lone surviving port city and are gone by the time the Redguards cross the ocean." -Summary of Hero Divad -Terminus Zaire, 14:00 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Ephesus

This article takes for granted ESO's placement of the border between HF and HR, but in all other sources, the border has been taken to be along the Bjulsae. I propose that this be acknowledged in the article, if there is no objection. — Unsigned comment by 218.185.237.158 (talk) at 09:02 on 23 April 2019 (UTC)

You can add it directly yourself, if you add the references. —MortenOSlash (talk) 20:59, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
