White-Gold Concordat
The White-Gold Concordat is a significant treaty in the lore of the video game series The Elder Scrolls, specifically within The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It was established between the Empire of Tamriel and the Aldmeri Dominion, a powerful alliance of the High Elves. The Concordat aimed to end hostilities following the Great War, which was fought over territory and religious freedom.
One of the key stipulations of the White-Gold Concordat was the banning of the worship of Talos, a revered figure in the Nordic culture. This decision sparked widespread resentment among the Nords and other factions, leading to tensions and conflicts within the game’s narrative, particularly involving the Stormcloaks, a rebel group fighting for Skyrim's independence.
