Many more Orsiniums appeared and disappeared after the first one. In the middle {{Lore Link|Second Era}}, Orsinium was controlled by the {{Lore Link|Daggerfall Covenant}}, and was given to {{Lore Link|Kurog|Kurog gro-Bagrakh}}'s clan as a reward for helping King {{Lore Link|Emeric}} defeat {{Lore Link|Ranser}}, the king of {{Lore Link|Shornhelm}}. Kurog then became the king of Orsinium, which subsequently joined the Second Daggerfall Covenant.{{ref|name=GttDC|{{Cite book|Guide to the Daggerfall Covenant}}}}{{ref|name=TFoKR|{{Cite book|The Fury of King Ranser}}}} Another incarnation, sometimes called Nova Orsinium, was created by [[Lore:Gortwog gro-Nagorm|Gortwog gro-Nagorm]] in {{Year|3E 399}}.{{ref|name=HOPTTO|{{Cite book|How Orsinium Passed to the Orcs}}}} He gathered enough power to force [[Lore:Uriel Septim VII|Emperor Uriel Septim VII]] to formally recognize Orsinium as an equal of the other lesser kingdoms of the Iliac Bay region.{{ref|name=PGE3O}} During the {{Lore Link|The Warp in the West (event)|Warp in the West}}, Orsinium was one of the four kingdoms to gain control of the {{Lore Link|Numidium}}, conquering the surrounding kingdoms and baronies and swearing loyalty to the Emperor.{{ref|name=TWITW|{{Cite book|The Warp in the West}}}} Early in the {{Lore Link|Fourth Era}}, Orsinium was once again sacked by the {{Lore Link|Redguard}}s and {{Lore Link|Breton}}s and presumably eliminated, and many Orc refugees were escorted to {{Lore Link|Skyrim}} by the {{Lore Link|Imperial Legion}}.{{ref|name=LOS|{{Cite book|Lord of Souls|ns=Books}}}} The kingdom later re-formed in the mountains between [[Lore:Hammerfell|Hammerfell]] and [[Lore:Skyrim|Skyrim]].{{Ref|name=SRLoading|[[Skyrim:Loading Screens|Loading screen]] in [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]].}}<noinclude>
