The Aquila, (Latin for Eagle), has been historically used by nations since the beginning of civilization. It represents the power and authority of the state, and here in the U.S., it also represents the ideals of liberty and justice.
And by the way, the Cydrollic Empire is virtually the Roman Empire in a fantasy setting, just replacing the Aquila with the Draco.
@JoeyLock The Romanesque style does suit the Legion very well, given their style-influence in both Morrowind and Skyrim. It's even more obvious in Morrowind, I'd say. Oblivion was simply a hiccup on Bethesda's side.
And I think the style-clash in Skyrim (Viking vs Roman) is intended. The Legion isn't "native" to Skyrim, after all.
Edit: And I totally forgot the new tiered comment system. Well, what's done is done
If anything, I'd say Oblivion made Cyrodiil feel a little too much like medieval Germany rather than Classical Greco-Roman like it's supposed to be.
I wish the developers of the games made Imperial influenced cities and towns, such as the whole of Cyrodiil or Solitude in Skyrim, to have more of a Romanized feel to them, with the Italian style architecture for the towns, and Greco-Roman columns and buildings for the larger cities.
Very nice. I can't decide whether to download or not, though. The red dragon is the symbol of the Empire in TES lore, which is the reason why I can't decide. I always thought that the banner should look more Roman, however. The ultimate banner for the Empire would be something that looks like yours but instead of the eagle, it would be a dragon with outstretched wings.
On the other hand, since the Septims aren't Emperors any more...maybe the Medes use an eagle...What the hell, I'll download it. Good job.
