Overview
Each of the human cultures and ethnicities of the real world can be found in Erna. Ethnic variety is present across all races (not all elves, dwarves, gnomes, etc are caucasian). However, because Erna is a supercontinent, there were less natural barriers to population mingling, so there are fewer areas of radically different ethnicity. For people and players looking to create a character of a particular culture, each real-world culture corresponds to a modern-day nation of Erna.
Ethnicity
