Is there good evidence that the Bosmer were enslaved by the Altmer, as the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim page claims? If not, shouldn\\\'t the page be changed?

Also, even if all those in Valenwood loved their Imperial overlords and wanted them to remain in control, that doesn\\\'t address the question of whether there\\\'s any evidence that the Bosmer are slaves/indentured servants of the Altmer. I have seen no evidence of that. That would show that Valenwood (and, presumably, Elsweyr) is essentially a colony of the Altmer, like it was a colony of Cyrodil before the Imperials were run out, not that they are slaves of the Altmer.

Is there any evidence that the Thalmor created the sympathizers in Valenwood or is that purely speculation on your part? While it seems clear that the Dominion started in Summerset, is there any reason to think that many Bosmer would not want to overthrow the Imperial control of Valenwood (i.e., the Imperial Dominion over mer and beast races)? There is a long history of dislike/distrust of Imperial domination (by those in Valenwood as well as many other parts of the Empire). It seems much more likely to me that many Bosmer in Valenwood would prefer to be allied with the Altmer than be a colony of the Empire, although I\\\'m sure some in Valenwood would have preferred to remain allied with the Empire (just as some Nords prefer that).
