Songs of Conquest has been something I've been eye-ing but idk. Maybe someone here who has played it can get back to me.

The enemy operates like Orks in W40K where killing the Warboss causes them to all turn on each other
This one NPC has more personality than entire holds in Skyrim.
I assume the light red indicates coups as opposed to outright military invasions (but even then, there should be a lot more of that in that case).
Also, border conflicts aside, China literally invaded Vietnam for the crime of overthrowing their puppet butcher in Cambodia. It also invaded South Korea, regardless of how justified that was or wasn’t. Not sure why that’s omitted since it’s still a massive discrepancy between China and the US.

I’ve never felt the need to watch a game stream until now.
Temple of Dibella, you mean? Or maybe you meant the Witch Covens.
People liked SAII for the "gritty" story but honestly I remember III the most for just going off the rails in a way that was unique from GTA.
Game was a lot more ambitious (and lewd) on the drawing board. There used to be a "Prostitutes" faction that was canned (alongside other minor factions representing professions that the player could engage in, like Bards and such) but the sprites (NSFW ofc) were left in the final release in random locations just because. Some of them made sense (like in Inns and Temples of Dibella) but others were... just there.
I still love the Daggerfall we got (the later versions cleaned up on UESP and released in Unity particular) but I sometimes wonder about what could have been.
In fairness, it means "Twilight of the Gods" and is a fancy byword for apocalypse. Funny thing is that the word is commonly associated with Nazi Germany's downfall in the last days of the war before Addy made his greatest contribution to humanity in the Fuhrerbunker.
Ironically, it was lifted straight from Richard Wagner's concluding musical act on the Nibelungenlied, which German nationalists used to evoke the "stab in the back" myth (specifically Siegfried's betrayal at the hands of Hagen).
