What happened in Cyrodiil? Options

[Lady Saga]

What do you think happened to Cyrodiil 200 years into the 4th era? Is there an official explanation as to what happens? Does the Arcane university still exist? Is Cyrodiil in as much a decline as portions of Skyrim are?

I'm just wondering about all this, as I just tried to do some research and can't find anything official. I only looked at UESP, though.

YOu know....but isn't this true about Earth as well? History books from my generation are gonna be different from those of my daughter's generation. They're always getting bits of history wrong, even here on Earth. And then they change portions of it during the next edition of books if they need to.

I don't know if anybody has ever noticed, but I often subtly change the way some of my characters spell their name. Eradi~Kate could also be known as EradiKate, for instance. Luci Ferria could be Luci Pheria. Some of my characters also are known by different names, as well. The Grey Wizard is known as "Beujok" by some, and Eradi~Kate is also known as Miss Terri. Ann Thraxx may or may not wind up being known as Renee Gade III.

I do this because as I write about my characters on the forums (especially in the Where are you Now threads), I'm pretending different writers are scribing up the stories. And mistakes are made. Some of these writers are mis-informed.

If Bethesda's lore is screwed up, perhaps this is also the case. They get stuff wrong, but after all, so have Earth's scribes, historians and story-tellers. Know what I mean? Inconsistencies are a part of it all.
