But if you wanted to rule the land instead, you would have to become thane of all the holds, win the civil war for the Imperials, and then marry Jarl Elisif... of course, then you would be given the delightful task of filin' taxes and sitting on your throne for hours every day, looking like you're contemplating whether or not you need to go to the lavatory (or Skyrim's equivalent of one, anyway).
Likely it's just as well the game doesn't - I imagine in the next installment of Elder Scrolls, it'll turn out that it won't have mattered which side you choose because the Dragonborn ends up being proclaimed High King, conquers the rest of the Empire, and finally takes the fight to the Thalmor (maybe this will be the focus of the new game itself, or maybe just a historical footnote in some book you can find in the game a couple hundred years after the Dragonborn kicks the Thalmors' collective butts).
If this indeed turns out to be the case, then making either Elisif or Ulfric High King screws up the future story arc, which would explain why this doesn't happen in the game. Of course, this is all pure speculation, and may be totally wrong - but it would be cool if the Dragonborn did become High King!
the point is that the dragonborn should hold immense influence by the end of the vanilla game and it wouldnt be too far fetched to assume that he could overthrow both faction's and rule skyrim independently. form alliance's with the empire or other factions in the current world. rebuild the fort's of skyrim and build your own grand palace, ECT.
I have a dragonborn that sided with the imperials and also saved the world. Uriel septim was a dragon born too. I've killed all talmor in solitude, with a mod i married elisif. that char has a lot of connections, even with thieves and dark brotherhood. The emperor is dead. He has collected 3.000.000 septims and has at least equal in assets. I can imagine he would try to make up an army an march over cyrodill to clear it from talmors, but that char is over (now he has to sit in the blue palace all day long), and started other stories.
