I have decided no aspects about the physical appearances of my main characters for my novel except that the Lordling-in-exile has brooding eyes, the Wizard's apprentice wears a lacy headscarf (at least at the beginning), and they're both brown because all the people in this world are brown (or at least all the people on the two continents that are relevant to the story I'm writing).

Is Australia in non-Wealth of Nations games, Khan?

Because I need to get to the West Coast of the US, and I genuinely think getting there from Australia would be easier than convincing the Aztecs that I totally just need to borrow this province.

Yes.

Even I have white people in my story.

Mind, they're Arabs.

I never knew just how badly I needed a Spanish Australia until now.

You can also take New Zealand.

Are you people even comprehending?

Macbeth's, er, step-grandson is a pretender king of Scotland. That's awesome!

Yes.

Thanks; the Wiki wasn't clear.

The only white guy in my novel right now is albino.

Of course, that's only part of it, but it's the part I'm working on at the moment.

Of course!

Problem is, Portugal has already taken Maldives. Which means I need to convince India not to tusk-fuck me so I can get to Australia without dying.

Real Macbeth was actual king.

Step it up, sonny.

Oh, for crying out loud...

Arabs are brown people in my mind.

Most of the people in my novel are Arabs, basically.

I may have spoken too soon.

He's currently imprisoned by King Malcolm. But the war rages on under his Regent, Andrew "Pedostache".

To be fair, I get the feeling Assad was the thin, pasty kid everyone kicks the shit out of back in high school.

This kind of Arab.

Where's he from?

The majority (I can't say vast majority, because Sudan) of Arabs are white.

Though there's a ton of black Arabs.

Ah.

Well, that answers that.

Yeah, African Arabs often look like that.

I typically think "Middle East" when I think Arab though, so Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, etc.

Google suggests Morocco.

I should use better words. While there might be light-skinned people in my novel, there are very few people who have what would be described as "European" facial features -- they all possess more North African and specifically Saharan features.

I tend to think more "Moor" around there, but what the hell a Moor actually is is up to debate, given as my image of a "Moor" is Laurence Fishbourne's Othello.

And that's probably inaccurate.

My book is populated entirely by the Chinese and Africans of all shades.

And then there's the other guys. I don't know what they are. No one else does either, so that's OK.

You could say that, yeah. Many of them are dark like African Arabs, because these people, they call themselves the Children of the Sands -- their ancestors wandered the desert for 6,000 years (so the mythology says; that's not quite the whole story) before venturing out about 1500 years ago. It just naturally makes sense that they would have a bit more melanin. Also, because of [spoiler].

My book is also in the desert, which is why it gives me such glee to have an albino in the cast.

Though, mind, Aladdin was in an incredibly Arab China.

Back then, people really did not bother doing their research on foreign countries because they couldn't.

I should make all the fair folk albino.

That'd be cool, have one more genetic anomaly, and also gives a whole new shade to the phraseology "fair folk".

Which is why Shakespeare had nuns of Diana and Olympians in ancient England.

Because, even if someone questioned him, what the fuck could they prove?

Ireland controls Panama.

They now have control over the only two gates to the west coast of the Americas, bar Africa, which only Portugal and I have the infrastructure to use.

That makes Ireland one of the most powerful nations in the world.
