Recently I've been thinking about some Mount&Blade Factions and how they are quite similar to real life empires. Firstly, the Nords are obviously Vikings. They weild axes and have their towns by the sea, even the name 'Nord' is close to 'Norse' so that was a dead giveaway.
Khergits are the Mongols, they all ride horses, they live on the plains and in the mountains, Their towns are made of clay etc.
the other three are harder to identify, and I'm no history expert, though I have a suspicion that the Vaegirs could be the English and the Swadians could be French (Though that could just be a reason I created to hate them even more
). I have no idea about the Rhodoks, as I haven't spent much time there.
So any help filling in the blanks is welcome, as well as general discussion about the similarities.
