Since its birth, Elder Scrolls Online has been attracting many MMO game players with its rich game content and full storyline. If you are one of these players, then you will definitely find that there are vast maps to explore in the game.

MMO games have their own huge worldview settings, and the same is true in the game world of ESO. There are multiple regions in the game, and players can not only earn ESO Gold through adventures in these regions but also experience different customs.

Among all the regions, Tamriel is the background continent of the main story of the game. Some regions in Tamriel related to the main story are more detailed than other regions, and there are many legends surrounding these regions themselves. But this does not mean that other regions in Tamriel are not worthy of attention. In fact, most of them have beautiful scenery that is not inferior to the main regions.

If you are also curious about these regions, then the following introduction to these regions will definitely satisfy you.

1. Summerset Isles

Located in the southwest of Tamriel, this island is composed of eight smaller islands and is also called Alinor. The island is lush with trees and flowers, and the environment is peaceful and beautiful. No wonder it was chosen as the habitat of ESO High Elves.

High Elves are known for their advanced civilization and powerful magical power in the game. They are also a group that believes in elitism. At present, parts of Summerset Isles have appeared in some quests or plots in the game, but the full depth of the area and its relationship with magical concepts such as Aedra remain to be discovered.

In ESO, people believe that Summerset Isles is the origin of Mer race before they came to Aldmeris. And over time, cities such as Firsthold and Alinor have also risen one by one next to the mysterious crystal tower landmark in the area.

2. Hammerfell And High Rock

Hammerfell is a complex and rich area, with everything from vast deserts to jungles and swamps. Iliac Bay, known for its port cities like Rihad, connects Hammerfell to its northern neighbor, High Rock, forming a richer and more complete region.

In the past, Hammerfell was the birthplace of ESO Dwemer civilization, and later Redguards came here after the fall of their home Yokuda. High Rock has always been the richest and most stable part of Tamriel’s extensive development, and it was from here that Bretons began to rise. It is said that they were a mixed settler of humans and elves long ago.

Hammerfell and High Rock are known among players because of the city-state of Daggerfall in Glenumbra region, Wayrest in Stormhaven, and Orsinium of Orcs. There are both rich natural resources and political intrigues because of the existence of various settlements.

3. Valenwood

The southwestern part of Valenwood is mainly a wilderness composed of forests, swamps, and rainforests, and is only inhabited by people in the scattered homes of various tribes. The residents here are forbidden to use plant materials in construction, so the development level is low, but it also presents a strong natural style.

This place is ruled by Camoran Dynasty established in the first era of the game. Its capital, Falinesti, is a huge movable oak tree that moves according to the seasons and can even disappear.

4. Elsweyr

This region is the ancestral home of the barbaric Khajiit race, which can be roughly divided into two parts: arid and lush. In the north, there is Anequina, which consists of desert wastelands inhabited by nomads, and in the south, there is Pelletine, which is prosperous and can grow a variety of crops.

The history of Khajiit people, and their creation myths centered on god-like figures, show that this is an extremely diverse race. And their physical characteristics are determined by the phase of the moon when they are born, which is very interesting.

5. Black Marsh

This southeastern area full of swamps and water is also called Argonia, which is the home of Argonia people. Historically, this place has been a battlefield for various countries to compete for resources and population, and there is brief contact with the imperial army on the main line. This is still a very mysterious area of ​​the game world.

6. Majority Of Mainland Morrowind

While players may have seen parts of the area around the capital city of Mournhold in ESO 3 DLC Morrowind’s Tribunal, exploration of the eastern home of Dunmer has focused on the islands off the coast of this part of the world.

The strange geography here seems to be caused by volcanic activity, such as the crags and fields of Stonefalls, or cities like Blacklight and Firewatch. Considering the puzzles and legends buried here, this mysterious area may still hold its own secrets.

7. Lands Beyond Tamriel

While most of the areas outside of Tamriel are currently mentioned in passing and not discussed in the plot, it doesn’t mean they don’t exist, or at least they once existed.

East of Tamriel is said to be Akavir, where some fierce races such as dragon, Kamal snow demons and Ka Po’ Tun tiger people originated. To the north is the frozen continent of Atmora, from which humans originally migrated to Tamriel because of the apparently uninhabitable cold conditions.

And then there is Pyandonea, far to the south. This perennially foggy land is home to the rare Maormer race, which is said to tame sea serpents but has largely disappeared from the world stage.

As for the deserted island of Yokuda or the mysterious Aldmeris, these lost continents are believed to have disappeared because of geological destruction or magical intervention, leaving only their residents who escaped to Tamriel.

Are you more interested in these regions now? Maybe in the subsequent game updates, the game developers will choose some of them as the background for the new story. Let’s look forward to it together!
