Upon the world of Nirn, in The Elder Scrolls universe, all manner of Man, Mer, and Beast live their mortal lives. This is illustrated well within the games because of the plethora of race options players have in the character creators. Despite this, there are actually even more sentient races that could just as easily be playable.

The Tang Mo are a race of "monkey people" that inhabit The Thousand Monkey Isles of Akavir. Like many things in Akavir, despite the wealth of history between it and the continent of Tamriel, very little is known about this race of beastmen. Interestingly enough, the term "Tang Mo" is Akaviri in origin. It translates to "Thousand Monkey Isles", so they are so named by the very place they inhabit.
If the Kothringi seemed sparse on historical details, then the Orma are quite literally an entirely different breed. Another sub-group of mankind, the Orma are notable for being a race without sight. Members were born either blind or without eyes at all, typically wearing blindfolds. Outside of that, all else that is known is that they lived primarily in Black Marsh, and that they all died out due to a cause that is still unknown.
Another race that has mysteriously vanished from the history of Tamriel, the Lilmothiit were a group of mammalian beastmen, possibly related to the Khajiit, who were described as being vulpine in appearance. Like many of the peoples that used to call Black Marsh home, it is possible they were wiped out by the Knahaten flu, which killed almost every non-reptilian creature in the province during the Second Era.
Described as the most hated race by the people of Tamriel, the Sload are a group of slug-like beastmen that live in the Coral Kingdom of Thras off the west coast of Tamriel. They are famous for their mastery of necromancy and are believed to have existed on Nirn since its earliest days.
Meaning "Snow Hell" in the Akaviri tongue, Kamal is the name of both the nation and the people that inhabit it. They are described as a race of demons who "thaw out once every year" to launch attacks against the other peoples of Akavir, the Tang Mo most of all. They have always been driven back, only for the cycle to repeat.
The Tsaesci are perhaps the most famous non-Tamrielic race to exist on Nirn, at least from the perspective of the people of Tamriel. This is not surprising considering the Fighters Guild was founded by a Tsaesci, as well as the famous Blades. A Tsaesci and his son even ruled the Empire for a time as Potentates during the transitionary period between the First and Second Eras. The total amount of time comes out to around four hundred years.
The Elder Scrolls commonly has ten playable races for players to choose from in-game. These tend to be the most dominant races of the continent of Tamriel, the location of all Elder Scrolls games, but there are more all over the world of Nirn. Indeed, there are plenty more races out there, though they are unplayable for many reasons.
Akavir (Aldmeris/Ehlnofex and Tsaesci: "Dragon Land"[1]) is a continent lying to the east of Tamriel, separated by the Padomaic Ocean. It is the homeland of four seemingly unrelated races collectively referred to as the "Akaviri." These races are composed of the Demons of Kamal, the serpent-men of Tsaesci, the Monkey People of Tang Mo, and the Tiger Dragons of Ka'Po'Tun.[1] Some sources talk of other races, which have not been seen since and may be extinct.[2]
Tang Mo is home to a race of monkey-folk (not to be confused with the monkey-folk known as the Imga) who are being oppressed on a constant basis by the three other races of Akavir.[1] The other nations of Akavir have all tried to invade Tang Mo at one point in time, and the monkey-folk hold a special hatred of the snake people of Tsaesci. However, the monkey-folk have since allied with the tiger people of Ka Po Tun.[1]
Kamal is inhabited by primal demons that thaw out once a year and attack Tang Mo, but the monkey-folk always manage to drive them back. A demon warlord, Ada'Soom Dir-Kamal, once attempted to conquer Morrowind but was destroyed at Red Mountain by Almalexia and the Underking. It was during this invasion that Vivec is said to have flooded the island of Vvardenfell and taught the entire Dunmer race to breathe water. This is the only known encounter with an Akaviri race besides the Tsaesci.[1]
Tsaesci is the largest, and presumably the most powerful, of the kingdoms on Akavir. It was the first region on Akavir to attempt a Tamrielic invasion, with moderate success. According to legend, Tsaesci is the homeland of immortal vampiric serpent-men. The men that used to exist in Akavir were all eaten by this race. The Tsaesci also enslaved goblins that they used for labor and blood.[1]
Early encounters between Tamriel and Akavir reported the presence of other unknown beastfolk, with references to crews of pirates with rat- and canine-like features. Little is known about such other races, including whether they still exist.[2]
Also - dragons. It is assumed, that if there were actual humans in Akavir, they were eaten by beast races somewhere around the First Era (Morrowind is the Third Era, Oblivion marks the end of Third Era and Skyrim is the Fourth Era). 2ff7e9595c
