Why should Ermor be behind in research?
It starts with the possibility to summon a dusk elder every second turn for an average of 4 new RPs per turn, not too bad (yet not very good), with a bit of research and site-searching they can easily crank that up to even more through cheap summons with small research values strengthened by Magic+3.

AE Ermor is definitely a bad nation for research. Any nation that has to cast summoning spells just to get a researcher is not very good. And AE Ermor's mages, while powerful in Death, have little or no magic outside of that and so even once you have some they're mediocre researchers at best.

I don't think there is another nation in the game that couldn't out-research Undead Ermor if they made research any sort of priority. Well, except for Undead Pangaea, maybe, but that's about it.
