Hehe, you have something against DA personaly I'm quite sure of it.

What makes you think that?
And of course 'pick a side, they win' isn't a whole lot better. But if done right I feel it's more interesting than unity.

I said goal, not outcome.

I know that. But which group would want unity as their goal... Seems
like most of them would rather be the last ones standing.

The player's, and perhaps a few wiser people in the world.

We should be careful about forcing the player to work for unity. Not
open enough. Besides, why would a whole race needing living space or a
cresmeri supremacist faction be remotely willing to settle for unity?
And arbiter, I'll admit that DA and I have many 'discussions,' but it's mostly because we're both so damn stubborn.

National borders would change, depending on who the player sides with
(partly), but no one's completely eliminated. For example, if he sides
with the Cresmer, they'll win large tracts of farmland and a city or
two from the Drethmer, occupy parts of Hosmer lands, the Vesmerkaz
would get a bit of Drethmer land, and a bit of Ulsmer.
It'd basically be like the political effects of WWI; lots of borders
move, some countries disappear or collapse (like Armenia and the
Ottoman Empire) some emerge (the united Czechoslovakia, Soviet Union),
doomed attempt at international unity (League of Nations), separatists
(Ireland, lots of imperial colonies), and stable, miserable
dictatorships (Facism, Communism, et c)

Well, I'd say unity would probably be the goal, except the Yokumer would rather have control, so would the Cresmer.

Player choice having that much effect on the world has killed more
serious Morrowind TCs than any other single thing. It just isn't
reasonably doable, we need to have an ending, MAYBE two, more if they
do not effect the world around them differently, but especialy
considering our current size, we shouldn't take on the task of making a
whole continent, as well as the most difficult quest mod we can.

Think we should do some advertising?

Yes but I wouldn't try this with elsweyr either, having this many
factions with a different world at the end is insane, maybe some
different comments and some light changes in a three way struggle, but
only if it was integral to the plot, in this case it is not.
