All I know is that Nurgle is British
IIRC in 40k Nurgle became a great power during the Black Death. In fantasy idk the origins but the chaos wastes where chaos is strongest are at the poles. The world map is literally just the real world with a bit of fantasy stuff like elf atlantis, and the landmass that would be "Britain" is Albion, a land of swamps and brutal savages. Culturally, Bretonnia is like a 50/50 of Britain/France with chivalrous knights and super poor peasants, where the peasants are tithed literally more than 100% of their harvest.
The Orks are literally cockney football hooligans. The lizardfolk are literally aztec/maya. The Tomb Kings are literally egypt. Norsca is literally vikings.
The real take away is that only white people get to be humans. Also skaven are a parody of capitalism/individualism so there is that at least.
Don’t forget the “pigmys”
Jesus I wish I could. That especially but araby too is just so fucking rascist.
