What's the real life equivalent of the three elf races?

[Landsknecht und Deutscher Ritter]

I think the Dark Elves are supposed to be the bad aspects of Americans. Namely the confederate stats Since the High Elves are tolkien who is British and the Dark Elves are lead by Darth Vader which is the biggest fantasy series in America. They also are based around slavery and

The Wood Elves are probably supposed to be Native Americans, people say celts a lot but there's not many forests in Ireland or Scotland and the Celts were very industrial and fragmented internally more simlar to the High Elves.

The High Elves are I think supposed to be the less evil aspects of Americans like Abraham Lincoln. Since they have a confusing political system that's corrupt and they're a union of states with advanced technology and they're focused around a citizens militia. Of course darker than real life though.

Their feminism is pre-christian German though that's for sure. I just wish they made it more realistic by having mixed sex units.

Wood Elves are based on Fae.

So all elves, designed by this british company in the 80´s, are based around americans?

Look like it´s time for our favourite forum game: "Bait or Lunacy?" *Fanfare*

[Big Moustache]

Wood elves are third world countries, high elves are Russians or Germans and dark elves are Murikans plundering the middle east and playing boss over anyone else.

Bring it xD

Totally impossible to have a game that a game has three cultures that aren't based on Britain... Except they already have 20 and the only aspect of the single English faction is the arthurian legend of a French culture.

High and dark elves is literally britain and early america

Lol no. The Dark Elves split off from the High Elves because of the intrigue of some goofy comically evil race supremacists.

Britain is Brettonia if it wasn't obvious enough.

It's not obvious enough seeing how they are actually French.

Arthurian myth, yeomanry, name is corruption of Britain.

Chivalry, the names of the lords and heroes, French af

No they're still French. The High Elves are meant to be the Brits.

Honestly this whole thread you made is fukt. The Elves encompass effectively nothing of America, and if they did it's only the Dark Elves, and even then it's geography only, the fact they broke off from the Elven race proper, and nothing else, which is a comically sly and snide joke from GW since they're Brits. If anything the Dark Elves have more in common with the nazis since they believe themselves to be the master race and everyone else worthy of being enslaved or exterminated, that's literally part of their lore.

It's almost as if there are no perfect 1:1 connections with the real world...

Nazi ideology was based on Confederate ideology.

Also America is culturally a German nation, not a British one. The Confederates were specifically trying to create a classical English society but their cutlure was crushed out.

Lol what?

High elves -

Colonies all over in the past
mostly on their own island now
Monarchy


Dark elves -

Broke off from high elves
Big on slavery
Big on random wars

Both similar to each other but like to proclaim their differences.


Brettonia is medievil king arthury britain, high elves is later.

No actually. It wasn't. It formed in its own vacuum through different circumstances. The similarities are there, but there's nothing historians have found that ties the CSA inspiring the nazi ideology.

America is more it's own culture than any one nation, and you can find someone from every country in the world here. Not that I'm against English bits getting crushed out, they're cuisine sucks for one. Chippies? Whats this garbo. But that's besides the point.

Blease, I know my historical bits, and my own culture. Blease.
