Culture Chop Suey	comment	Culture Chop Suey is a Fantasy Counterpart Culture cobbled together from two or more real world cultures. As with an Anachronism Stew, the reasons for this can vary from case to case. It can stem from the writer's ignorance on the subject: they simply might not realize that these cultural elements are alien to one another. Likewise, it can be a case of Creator Provincialism, when the writer uses aspects of their own culture in the fictional one, either because they aren't aware that they would seem out of place, or because they want to make it more familiar for their audience. Of course, when they're completely aware of the differences, they may be taking Artistic License, blurring the lines for unique Worldbuilding (particularly in science fiction, where extrapolating plausible future cultural blends is a way to increase rather than reduce verisimilitude), or just playing to the Rule of Cool or Rule of Funny. These are cases where elements are of a contrasting culture; elements of technology from a contrasting time period are Schizo Tech. When ninjas show up as part of a Culture Chop Suey, that is also a McNinja. A Ruritania is usually constructed using this trope. A character from one of these cultures may sport two names of different ethnicities just to drive things home. Some cultural mash-ups are common enough to warrant their own pages: Ancient Grome, Far East, Qurac, Mayincatec, Scotireland, Spexico, Tipis and Totem Poles, Americasia, City of Everywhere, Interchangeable Asian Cultures and some versions of Norse by Norsewest and Latin Land. Compare Interfaith Smoothie for when this is done to religions. Since the distinction between the cultures is the point, and no example is Self-Explanatory, when citing an example, please mention what real-world cultures that the fictional one is based on.

The populace has a mix of Japanese and Chinese-sounding names. Polaris is an arctic world of Polar Bears and Penguins, but there are also several distinctly French elements to its history, such as an emperor based on Napoleon and an equivalent to the French Revolution.

Culture Chop Suey / int_15f6e28	comment	All the Tribes in Horizon do this. Justified, given that the game is set on Earth After the End; the factions are confused mixes of assorted cultures because the tribal inhabitants are cluelessly mimicking fashion and concepts they see amongst the ruins of the Old World: The Nora and Banuk are mostly a blend of various Native American peoples, but there are some Pictish elements are in there too. The Oseram a generalized mix of North European cultures like the Celtic Kingdoms and Scandinavia, with a major Horny Vikings vibe going on where smithing, drinking, and fighting are their primary pastimes. The Carja Sundom and their neighboring tribes (the Utaru and Tenakth) are all Mayincatec in general (with the Utaru leaning more toward the "peaceful Inca farmers" stereotype and the Tenakth leaning into the "bloodthirsty warmongering Aztec" sidenote Though their culture is actually much more of a Proud Warrior Race and they don't actually drink blood; that part was invented by the famously xenophobic Carja), but the Carja in also mix in elements of Ancient Grome, the Middle East, Imperial China, and even ancient Babylonian architecture. The Quen, being from an entirely different hemisphere, have completely alien clothing and culture to any other known tribe which incorporates aspects of every Asian culture (the Quen hail from the Great Delta, which is somewhere in what used to be Asia), but they also have several "Proud of their gigantic seafaring navy and exploration fleet" traits which synonymize them with Imperial Japan and the British Empire. On top of all this, they incorporate minor modern-day cultural traits into their own due to being a semi-uplifted tribe with Focuses, meaning they have things like MegaCorps which have a heavy hand in government and Gestapo officers in all but name overseeing expeditions.

The Qunari, who are meant to be a counterpart of the Islamic Middle East (and the Ottoman Turks), except for the fact that their philosophy resembles Buddhism with swords more than Islam and they live in a jungle, not a desert. This would possibly make them Indian (having a Fantastic Caste System supports this) rather than Afghan - or, due to the fact that they live across a sea from the rest of Thedas, part of Darkest Africa instead (bonus points for the fact that the majority of their members are kossith, a race of very large Scary Black Horned Humanoids). Speaking of Islam, while the Chantry is basically a Gender-Inverted Catholicism, their Crystal Dragon Jesus is more like a combination of The Prophet Muhammad and Joan of Arc.

Culture Chop Suey / int_247422c7	comment	All over the place in Honor Harrington, but justified by the peculiarities of a humanity's Diaspora to the stars. Haven is a pretty equal mix of all things Anglo-Saxon and French, both ethnically and politically: their original and later state was pretty much a United Space of America, while most of the series they've spent as a variation of Revolutionary France with a healthy dose of Stalinist Soviet Union thrown into the mix. The Andermani Empire is an ethnically Chinese but culturally German state, built by the loony but very successful ex-mercenary Gustav Anderman, who believed that he was a reincarnation of Frederick the Great. Grayson is a funny mix of Idaho with Space Mormons, and just enough of Meiji Japan for it to be noticeable. Even Manticore itself, while giving undeniably British vibes, was actually an all-European effort, so at least ethnically it runs the whole gamut from the UK to Russia. Plus the royal family is Black. The new Honorverse Companion specifies that 60% of the original colonists of the Manticore System came from western Europe, with most of the remainder being from North America or the Caribbean and a small minority of Ukrainians. Considering how multicultural the European Union, the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean already are today, this alone is enough to presume that most of Old Earth's major cultures have some representation in Manticore's heritage, even without allowing for the large second wave of immigration after the Plague years. Cult Colony went bad? Okay, now you've got a planet of atheists. Racial colony go bad? Now you've got a planet of albino Zulus. There are examples in some of the short stories of what happens when different colonies hit the same planet and it gets ugly. Then there is Beowulf, whose biggest examples have been members of Honor's family, so a planet with a large chunk of Asian ancestry and very pseudo-Spanish names.

Gaal Dornick speaks with an English countryside accent, wears an Luo Ogut Tigo, has medium-brown skin, and has a bolo on during the courtroom scenes. While riding the spaceship down to Trantor, he's seated nearby a person in Puritan Pilgrim-style clothes. Hari Seldon wears a white cheongsam suit, a white kippah, an American yellow and brown vest, and has white skin and hair. The courtroom they're in is strongly influenced by Chinese design, with the uniforms worn by the committee and the gong instead of an English gavel. The courthouse has Greek columns and designs.

It is very Anglo-Saxon overall, with a government resembling that of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. And then there's the goddess of fire and war as their Statue of Liberty. Eir Glanfath is a mix of Magical Native American and Celtic tribes of British Isles. Glanfathans have hereditary nobles, yet are begrudgingly united in an Iroquois-like confederacy (there are even exactly six major tribes). Vailian Republics are mix and match of 15th-18th century Spain, France, and Italian states. Aedyr Empire is Ancient Grome, with Anglo-Saxons and elves in place of Romans. In the overall picture of the world, they take the role of the British Empire. Rauatai has a strong Polynesian flair, yet their government is something of a constitutional monarchy, which is made even more interesting by the fact that Rauatai has the strongest navy. There's also an Ottoman-like artillery obsession taking place. Ixamitl Plains has Mesoamerican-like people dressed in traditional Bulgarian and Ethiopian clothing engage in Shaolin monk rituals with Native American influences and 19th-century level philosophy.

Culture Chop Suey / int_49aa2aa4	comment	Pretty much all of the countries in the Ace Combat series exhibit this sort of characterization. While some are closely based on real world nations, they all avert straight examples of Fantasy Counterpart Culture. Osea shows political and cultural elements of both the United States and European Union member states as well as an obviously Japanese-derived self-defense force. Yuktobania has a Russian-influenced, but overall "generic Slavic" culture, and lies in climatic zones unlike any of the ones within Russia's or the USSR's territory (jungles, etc.) and its air force flies lots of real-world Western planes in addition to Russian models. Belka has many obvious parallels to Germany and German history, but its name sounds Slavic, its national legends also encompass iconography from the Arthurian legends and its plight in the 1980s and 1990s is often very reminiscent of the violent breakup of Yugoslavia, in addition to being a modernized allegory of World War Two. Ustio is a mix of Switzerland and the long-disputed Alsace-Lorraine region between France and Germany. Emmeria is an odd mix of American, Canadian, British, French, and other Western European nations. Aurelia has a lot in common with South American countries but also shares similarities with modern Australia. And so on...

Culture Chop Suey / int_49ad83ee	comment	Most World of Warcraft races are a hodgepodge of many different bits and pieces from real-world cultures. For instance, Night Elf architecture is based in equal parts on Japanese and Northern European styles. The Draenei speak with an Eastern-European accent and are inspired in equal parts by the Roma and some South Asian cultures, but use a lot of Greek sounds in their names. Goblins are infamous for both their gold smarts (a Jewish stereotype) and the pervasiveness of the Mafia in their culture (an Italian stereotype, with a matching accent to boot). The Zandalari Empire is equal parts ancient Africa and Mayincatec (with an additional naval focus that neither of its primary inspirations had).

The Imperials are a mix of Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, Tsarist Russia, and Imperial Germany. Their tactics and devotion to their nation and Emperor, as well as their uniforms, fall mostly into Nazi Germany. Their tanks seem mostly Soviet Russia influenced, with their firearms seeming to be mostly Nazi Germany influenced, and using mostly German designations. Imperial naming conventions seem to be a mix of German and Russian (with more German influence). Their political system seems mostly Imperial Germany and Imperial Russia mixed together. Tanks and other armoured vehicles tend to be named after animals (either in German or Latin), with the Vulcan from the fourth game being an exception.

When the gods are creating the world again they have to take turns to prevent the Snarl from forming and one of the 12 gods of the Southern pantheon (The Monkey) puts in ninjas 'cuz it's his turn. Some of the individual cultures play the trope straight: Azure City is a mix of Japanese, Chinese, and Korean elements, while the Western Continent has Arabic, Babylonian, and African pieces mixed together (along with lizard-people). The prequel story How the Paladin Got His Scar explains that the Ancient Empire, the precursor to modern-day Azure City and Realm of the Dragon, was home to multiple distinct ethnic groups which continued to coexist with each other after the empire fell, which is why modern Azurites have names from different real-life Asian cultures.

Culture Chop Suey / int_72262aee	comment	Avatar: The Last Airbender: Sokka carries a boomerang, despite his Water Tribe culture being largely based on the Inuit people. As noted in this article, Sokka's weapons are inspired by those used by the indigenous tribes of the Great Lakes and the Great Plains. The Sun Warriors, a cross between Aztecs/Maya and different Southeast Asian cultures. The Foggy Swamp Water Tribe, based on Vietnamese tribes in style, Buddhist spiritual culture... and Creole dialect and diet. Not even the main "nationalities"/"ethnicities" are immune to this; the capital of the Northern Water Tribe has Chinese-influenced architecture, with the canals and bridges of Venice, and while the Fire Nation's political situation and industrial superiority may be reminiscent of Imperial Japan, its material culture is mainly Chinese (with a bit of Thai mixed in). A page from a comic◊ shows that centuries ago the fire nation was divided into several clans, which are inspired by peoples such as Ainu, Yamato and Manchu. The Earth Kingdom is a step above all others in this trope. It takes influences from Imperial China Bureaucracy, for government/culture, but also has quite a bit of American West and Federated regional rule blended with the above mentioned Foggy Swamp Tribe, and Mongolian Desert Culture. In Korra, it gets the addition of various fascist states from the 1930s which lead it to elected democracy, possibly constitutional monarchy. The Earth Kingdom also has influences from Japan (Kyoshi Island), Korea (in a chapter a female character used a Hanbok), and people like the Berbers of North Africa (the sandbenders tribes). The Air Nomads are mainly based on Tibetan Buddhism, but the concept of the Avatar and the chakras are based on Hinduism.

Culture Chop Suey / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda, especially in the earlier games, has largely had the feel of being based around Medieval European Fantasy. It varies in later games, but not in a way that makes Link using a boomerang ever seem to fit: While the series superficially appears to be Medieval European Fantasy, there's a lot of Eastern influence in the architecture, symbolism, and especially the religion, featuring Eastern elements like reincarnation and polytheism. The Sheikah are heavily based on pre-modern Japanese culture, but one of their main crops in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the pumpkin, a New World plant. The Gerudo are primarily based on the Arabian Bedlah Babe archetype as is fitting for their desert homeland, but their musical themes in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask are very Latin-influenced. Many of the Gerudo in Breath of the Wild have South Asian-sounding names, while The One Guy among them in Ocarina of Time, Ganondorf, has a name ending (-dorf) that is commonly found in German names (though admittedly, his full name was first revealed in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past when his Gerudo people and their presence in the desert had yet to be established).

Culture Chop Suey / int_7559ae0b	comment	Dune is a completely justified example - while it is less chop suey and more cultural broth, it is reasonable to assume that after so long in the stars, all the cultures that have been subsumed into the Sublime Padishah Empire will mingle — although there is a heavily pronounced Islamic strain, suggesting some sort of Islamic or neo-Islamic period. The official religious text of the Imperium is the Orange Catholic Bible, a mish-mash of various tenets from major human religions. According to the prequel novels, when the Commission of Ecumenical Translators first came to Emperor Jules Corrino with their work, he endorsed and published it, earning himself and the CET such ire that the Emperor had to put members of the CET into protective custody to avoid lynch mobs. When a member of the CET was found supposedly raping the Empress (later revealed to have been consensual), Emperor Jules had all members of the CET publicly beheaded to the joy of the masses. It's also worth noting that the only culture that mentioned to have survived relatively unchanged through 20,000 or so years are the Jews. Even Islam has been merged with East Asian religions. The Fremen, for example, are descended from Zensunni (i.e. a mix of Zen Buddhism and Sunni Islam), while there are mentions of violent Zenshiite minorities. Collectively, they are known as Buddhislamics.

Possibly because Winnie-the-Pooh was inspired by an actual bear in the London Zoo that was originally from Canada, "Winnie" being short for "Winnipeg".

Serkonos, homeland of the first game's protagonist Corvo Attano, is established to be a counterpart for Greece and Italy and perhaps a bit of Spain. The sequel keeps this, but decides to double down on the "tropical colony" theme by including aspects of Roman Egypt (a direct reference to the scholars of Alexandria) and a lot of The Raj (guard uniforms and most notably a terrible disease spread by aggressive mosquito-things like malaria).

Culture Chop Suey / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls Each of the series' races blends at least two real-world cultures. To note: The Bretons: Politically, they resemble medieval England and France along with elements of Renaissance Italy (dozens of smaller city-states instead of large kingdoms, minor nobles with private armies duking it out, moderately more technologically and artistically advanced than their contemporaries, some clothing and building aesthetics, etc.), with elements of various Celtic cultures present as well.note Breton is the real-life French word for the inhabitants of Britanny. The Imperials: Earlier games gave them two cultures with different influences. The Colovians were primarily based on Rome (especially their martial traditions as well as military equipment and strategy), while the Nibenese had Chinese, Japanese, and Mesoamerican influence. This was all but dropped by Oblivion. Since then, they've been Medieval Europe meets Rome. By Skyrim, they're based on Rome, with a smattering of Italy. The Nedes: Elements of pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures along with elements of the early Chinese Empire. (These elements survived in their Nibenese Imperial descendants at least until the 3rd Era.) The Nords: While modern Nord culture is firmly rooted in Norse with Celtic and Germanic undertones, their ancient culture is quite the blend. They believe (or at least used to, before adopting the Imperial religion) in cyclic time (called kalpas), which is loosely inspired by Hinduism. Their names and aesthetic come from the Medieval Norse. But they used to mummify their dead much like ancient Egypt, and their religion is heavily influenced by both Norse pagan and Egyptian traditions, though this has fallen out of practice by the 3rd and 4th Eras. The Redguards: They primarily draw from the Middle East, particularly the Moors, with their naming conventions somewhat reminiscent of Arabic. However, the value they place on skill in battle and their tradition of a noble caste of warriors draws from the Samurai of feudal Japan. Most of the Races of Mer (Elves) draw more heavily from a fantasy basis, with comparisons to real-life cultures much less pronounced than the Races of Men. However, there are a few exceptions To note: Where to even begin with the Dunmer (Dark Elves)...Biblical Israelites/Hebrews/Jews: Led to Morrowind via mass exodus by the prophet Veloth, who shares aspects of Abraham and Moses. Practice a comparatively unusual religion for the setting (Tribunal/Ancestor worship vs. the worship of the Divines,) similar to the Israelite's monotheism vs. the polytheism popular in the region at the time. Struggling against a powerful foreign empire occupying their homeland (Cyrodiilic Empire, Roman Empire.) Had a long rivalry with the Dwemer, who have some appropriately Babylonian influences. Ancient Mesopotamia: Particularly the ancient Chimer. The names of many people and places sound like they're straight out of The Epic of Gilgamesh. Mongolia: The Ashlanders combine this with Mesopotamia mentioned above. Nomadic and "barbaric" (at least from the point of view of the Great House Dunmer.) Japan/China: Building aesthetics, especially House Hlaalu and Indoril styles. The Dwemer: While the most distinctive aspect of their culture is their heavy use of Steampunk and Magitek, the Dwemer themselves dressed and wore their beards in a manner akin to Mesopotamian cultures, such as the Babylonians. In Skyrim and Online, their armor and weaponry tend to have a very Bronze Age Mediterranean influence. The Orcs (Orsimer): They have a culture reminiscent of the Mongols, with a social structure reminiscent of Slavic tribes (small non-nomadic strongholds that are run by a single large family with the patriarch at the head). As of the 4th Era, they seem to have become fantasy counterpart Native Americans. A once tribal people, who had their land stolen from them under threats of violence, and now live on compounds remarkably similar to reservations. The Altmer (High Elves): Altmer culture has basis in Greek with its architecture as well as value of research, it has a caste system much like India, the Justicars are both a religious and civil police force much like the Spanish Inquisition, and it's very heavy Navy focused like the English. The Psjiics seemed to be based on monks from South Asia with detachment from materialism and familiar ties. As of the 4th era, the fascistic Thalmor draw heavily from Nazi Germany as well. The Bosmer: Historically, their land draws parallels to Ireland in that they have been conquered by multiple empires while still keeping their cultural identity. Culturally, their love of trickster heroes has basis in West African stories and their clothes, strong oral traditions, and use of trees in their homes draw parallels to various indigenous people in the Amazon region of South America. The Beast Races: The Argonians: They combine elements of Meso-American cultures (in the Mayincatec fashion) along with native cultures of Southeast Asia. Their ancient cultures built grandiose pyramid structures called "xanmeers" while Argonian art makes use of bright colors, feathers, and hides of all kinds. A succession of conquerors has long prevented the Argonians from growing past the "tribal" stage of society, while the Argonians are also masters of Viet Cong style guerilla warfare. The Khajiit: Their caravans, nomadic lifestyle, and propensity for stealth recall medieval views of the Roma. Like the Redguards, they also take a lot of cues from various "desert" cultures, including north African and Middle-Eastern cultures. Their cultural ties to the drug Moon Sugar are also reminiscent of the Chinese Opium culture. In The Elder Scrolls Online, the architecture of (the non-desert parts of) Elsweyr is based heavily on Thai and other Southeast Asian countries, which when combined with the aforementioned Moon Sugar implies a connection to the "Golden Triangle" of opium producers in that region. For additional details on the races of The Elder Scrolls series, please see the series' Races sub-page. Some of the series' various "factions" also draw from multiple real-world counterpart cultures. To note: The Blades: The Samurai meet western-style knights meets the CIA/Secret Service. Although they use katanas and their buildings resemble Oriental architecture, they function as a western-styled order of knights, and their uniform resembles a mishmash of Japanese-style lamellar and Roman lorica segmentata. The helmet is a cross between a Japanese kabuto and a Roman legionnaire helmet.

The characters also drink sake, wield katanas as much as sabers and cutlasses, make Japanese-language puns, etc. The Marines are a notable example; almost all of their high-ranking members have distinctly Japanese names and titles, some of them are even styled after Japanese actors, and their headquarters is essentially a huge, fortified pagoda. No explanation is made, the world is just like that.

Not surprising, given the fact that many of the original employees on the first PokÃ©mon game had worked on EarthBound (1994), which was a similar mash-up, albeit a bit more US-centric than Pokemon's world (which is more like Japan with some American flairs and cues added in). This has become even more the case now that the fifth generation of games take place in Unova, which is based on the New York City metropolitan area. For example, you now encounter trainers based around (American) Football and Basketball, sports that aren't nearly as popular in Japan as they are in the US. The sixth generation brings us France's equivalent called Kalos, complete with Gay Paree and assorted French stereotypes (but not Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkeys), and introduces Japanese tourists. The seventh generation is essentially based in PokÃ©!Hawai'i, so aspects of Hawaiian culture abound.

As one might imagine, the blend is far from pleasant - it's known as 'the cruellest, most bloody regime imaginable' for a reason. The Craftworld Aeldari combine influences from many world cultures with typical Tolkienesque elfishness. Take your pick honestly: Biel-tan (a strict Proud Warrior Race Guy Craftworld with lots of Aspect Warriors) plays up the feudal-era Japan angle of the race's design, Saim-hann (a craftworld of tribal Badass Bikers) plays up their Celtic influences, and Iyanden (which relies largely on semi-undead Wraith constructs to bolster its diminished military) is almost Hebrew in character.

Culture Chop Suey / int_e43ccc76	comment	Kiki's Delivery Service: Koriko, the main setting of the film, is a coastal city that clearly takes influence from several European cities but doesn't appear to be any one in particular. A lot of the architecture is based on real locations in Sweden (specifically Stockholm and Visby), but the signage uses an eclectic mixture of languages in a Foreign-Looking Font that resembles blackletter. Aside from that, Osono's bakery is based upon a real bakery in Tasmania; all of the vehicles are LHD, which is the standard in Sweden; there's a San Francisco-style cable car system; and the names of the inhabitants are a mix between Japanese and European.

Culture Chop Suey / int_e4b5d35b	comment	Avalice in Freedom Planet is a mixture of cultures of the Far East in general. The first game is set in areas that heavily mix Feudal Japan and Feudal China together alongside futuristic technology and the moral values of the 21st-century Anglosphere. The second game has a similar setting but shows more of the planet with cues taken from the Philippines added in.

With tepees, of course...which they reach after crossing a frozen strait and passing through what looks a lot like the Pacific Northwest. Funny how that actually works with real-life geography (the teepees should be in the Plains, not the Southwest, though).

Culture Chop Suey / int_e61d352c	comment	While being heavily based on Lithuanian folklore and the religions of the ancient Baltic cultures, the world of Tree of Savior has a lot of elements of other Earthly cultures. This is most easily seen in the character classes—Hoplites, Peltasti, and Oracles from Classical Greece, Cataphracts from the Middle East/Central Asia, Murmillones and Centurions from the Roman Empire, Shinobi from feudal Japan, Wugushi and Taoist Priests from China's imperial dynasties, Highlanders from medieval Scotland, Squires and Plague Doctors from medieval Europe, Spanish Rodoleros, Finnish Hakkapeliitta, and German DoppelsÃ¶ldner and Schwarzer Reiter from the Renaissance, Voudoun Bokors, Hindu Sadhus ... in fact, so far there are only two classes that have a distinct Lithuanian background, and those are the Krivis and Dievdirbys (both in the Cleric class family).

Culture Chop Suey / int_e8054edf	comment	In Raumpatrouille, which is set in the year 3000 when "there are no more nation-states", the culture is generally futuristic Europeanized Western. However, people eat with chopsticks. This may be a fortunate side-effect of the budget constraints: buying a few sets of chopsticks was obviously cheaper than to look for and buy cutlery that looked futuristic enough to come from the year 3000, and yet still would be completely unlike what European viewers in 1966 would have been accustomed to. It seems to have been a late change, as in episode 1, where two Orion crewmen come across two dead members of the space station MZ 4 still holding their chopsticks after being killed mid-meal, one of them comments: "But you don't die that way, with a fork in your hand!"

Culture Chop Suey / int_ef076a36	comment	Star Trek: Voyager. Rather than give Chakotay an actual Native American tribe, the writers just made one up and presented a bunch of Magical Native American cliches to go with it. Then due to Robert Beltran's Mesoamerican heritage they moved this fictional tribe down to Central America. So we have a tribe in the jungle who worship sky spirits despite only glimpsing the sky, have vision quests (sweat lodges in the jungle?), medicine wheels, medicine bundles, ancestor worship (more of an Asian practice), and facial tattoos that look more Maori than Native American. Given that Chakotay's tribe settled on a planet on the Cardassian border, a fan handwave is that the settlement was actually made up of many different Native American tribes producing this trope, or that they're a New Age revival movement with Future Imperfect issues.

Culture Chop Suey / int_f01bfd68	comment	No. 6 is a bit tricky. It's unknown what culture the titular city, No. 6, is, but the ghetto shows remnants of Chinese signs while a character has a collection of what was left of Shakespeare while a few characters have Japanese names (Shion, Rikiga) and at the same time odd names (Safu). Did we mention this takes place in a dystopian future where a bad enough world war destroyed all the superpower nations?

Culture Chop Suey / int_f1d185d1	comment	Where to even begin with the Dunmer (Dark Elves)...Biblical Israelites/Hebrews/Jews: Led to Morrowind via mass exodus by the prophet Veloth, who shares aspects of Abraham and Moses. Practice a comparatively unusual religion for the setting (Tribunal/Ancestor worship vs. the worship of the Divines,) similar to the Israelite's monotheism vs. the polytheism popular in the region at the time. Struggling against a powerful foreign empire occupying their homeland (Cyrodiilic Empire, Roman Empire.) Had a long rivalry with the Dwemer, who have some appropriately Babylonian influences. Ancient Mesopotamia: Particularly the ancient Chimer. The names of many people and places sound like they're straight out of The Epic of Gilgamesh. Mongolia: The Ashlanders combine this with Mesopotamia mentioned above. Nomadic and "barbaric" (at least from the point of view of the Great House Dunmer.) Japan/China: Building aesthetics, especially House Hlaalu and Indoril styles.

Culture Chop Suey / int_f1da64b5	comment	Most of the cultures depicted in The Lord of the Rings trilogy are obviously based closely on real-life cultures — the Rohirrim are Anglo-Saxons with a major horse theme, the Shire resembles Romantic-era rural Britain and Ireland, Gondor looks a lot like late Medieval Italy, and so on. However, the human bad guys tend to be more Culture Chop Suey, presumably to avoid the impression of "X culture is evil". The Easterlings, as one might suspect based on the name, are meant to be vaguely Middle Eastern. All we see of their culture in the movies is them marching to war, but their armour is a mishmash of "oriental" influences — Turkish, Mongolian, Persian, and Japanese samurai. The Southrons, or "Haradrim", are also meant to be Middle Eastern or perhaps African. Their costumes are based on a mix of Aztec and Kiribati motifs, with turbans and a lot of gold.

Furthermore, the Flan once ruled a magically advanced empire that spanned much of Eastern Oerik. The Baklunish diaspora has a very Middle Eastern influence, primarily Arabic and Persian. Mixed Baklunish-Oeridian tribes of horsemen such as the Tiger Nomads, or Chakyik Horde, are very clearly influenced by Mongolic as well as Turkic peoples.
