why was some Daedric princes left out of morrowind?

[Asenath]

I did a search on yahoo and google and found no info so I've decide to ask here.... why was half of the daedric princes left out of morrowind game like meridia,Hermaeus Mora,and others?

Because other Daedric Princes aren't that popular among dunmer. For the most part they worship Azura, Boehiah and Mephala, and a few other destructive princes to a lesser degree.

Yeah dark elves have a set of good daedra and bad daedra in their culture. Those are the only shrines that are built in vvardenfell (mind you vvardenfell has not let any outsiders or non temple people on the island until just a decade before the game, as before vvardenfell was holy Temple land). And the daedra shrines were all built by dunmer, either ashlanders or temple approved people.

There really hasn't been a chance or reason for followers of meridia or Hermanus Mora to build on vvardenfell. Everyone who was on there the last 1000 years has been devout to their current Gods, and the only purpose of daedra shrines is to spread influence and bring over supporters. It'd be a waste of time for hermaus mora followers to build in vvardenfell these last 1000 years. They do fine enough on the mainland and in melting pot/mosaic cultures like cyrodil.

In short, those daedra aren't in the traditional dunmer pantheon, and vvardenfell was temple owned holy land nobody has really been allowed on for 1000+ years.

It's like asking why there are no Greek god shrines in China or Japan. They simply didnt worship them there.

that makes sense false gods of tribunal were more important so I am guessing after the fall of the tribunal then the daedric gods rose to power seeing that oblivion was all about the daedra gods mainly dagon.

Not quite. In the main Dunmer faith, Boethiah, Azura, and Mephala were the original Tribunal. Between Morrowind and Skyrim, religious matters got back to how they used to be prior to the Battle of Red Mountain.
