You know, I have to admit that I never really could figure out why they would make Cyrodiil a jungle. Imperials always struck me as being more Mediterranean of sorts, modeled after Romans and Greeks. Frankly, neither the jungle, nor the lush temperate forest, seemed quite right - though I have to admit, Rome and Greece have something more close to temperate forest than jungle.
I know every region is supposed have a different feel, and frankly Oblivion looks the way I imagine High-Rock should have looked, with perhaps a bit more snow, so a slightly more jungle look I could see. I'm just having a hard time imagining Imperial Architecture emerging in a place that looks like the Congo, though.
Of course, that's just my $0.02 - for what it's worth.
