This guy was interviewed by GameTwo, the biggest German gaming channel, according to the subject. He's teaching at Leipzig university and is specialized on eastern and middle European history, Leipzig is just around the corner to Czech republic and former Bohemia, which even was German at some point.

If he says it's highly unlike, I will believe him....

Of course you SJW people won't believe anything he says anyway. 

I can't believe someone would even have preferred to put ONE quota black in the game, just because there was a vague possibility that some Mauro merchant once fell ill and got stuck in some bohemian village. It's embarrassing.

So, your "many historians" became one guy's general info page. In German...
This is just a bit sad tbh, I thought you could do better research.


Forgive me if I have better stuff to do than search the net for all the other refrences I’ve read during the last few weeks, just to please some ignorant SJW guy. Sorry, help yourself.

Still there is someone that can't accept that the population from 1400 Bohemia would look different from a mixed population of today, and that 1400 Europe tribes would be reasonably differentiable from one another.

Of course. There is certainly deviations today.
Allot of the Aboriginal Australians have significantly lighter skin here than their ancestors because of mixing with those of European decent... And that is on a much much much shorter time scale than what you are describing.

Exact...

But some guy took it to the heart that if the reviewer was being honest about diversity based on historical accuracy (that his challenge was based on very flimsy "what if") he should also ask about people from Latin area (or any other) that could be passing by in the same way he put... and his defense of they all being caucasian doesn't stand, as you pic easily show him (but he being somewhat of an specialist and European can't see any difference between stereotypical Latin, German and Norwegian).

And on my ignorance I thought there were still a lot of Aboriginal tribes still somewhat living without mixing with the Europeans descendants (in Brazil we still have several tribes that are still unknown and others that even though use cloths and technology are almost zero mix).

You cannot not tell what country anyone is from just by their photo. Literally no one. You have no point.

You can tell what geographical region of the world someone or their ancestors originated from via just their photo.
Skin colour is a very good descriptor for that.

Of course things like colonialism and migration in the last few hundreds years has muddied that water significantly.

And there is actually a good, scientific reason for it.

You can? So my friend who grew up in Iceland and had a German father an Indonesian mother, and looks more Native American than anything else. You could tell his ancestry is German and Indonesian by his photo? You'd be the first. I have another friend whose skin tone is significantly darker than his brother who has the same mother and father as him. You wouldn't even know they're brothers just by looking at them they look so dissimilar.

This is why a sample size of one is absolutely terrible.

Even though I agree with your sample of one being terrible, you also ignored the fact he is talking about no mixed heritage.

No I didn't ignore it, because literally everyone has mixed heritage if you trace their family tree back far enough. It's a silly point.

Not when talking about the subject of 1400 Bohemia.

Crying to? This forum has alot of lefties. Hardly sounds like a place an anti-sjw would seek protection. There's more than a few reviews bitching about the silly crap.

I'm sorry the leftists are being mean to you on the internet, must be rough

I think that you're confusing right leaning and left leaning people.

Fair point.

We pretty much have contact with all Aboriginal tribes, they tend to rely on modern advantages like Vehicles, Clothing, Housing and so on.

In the more developed areas where there have been significant European influence though, you can see the biological influence from Europeans which has resulted in significantly lighter skin pigmentation in the Aboriginal population. (I.E. Where I live.)
My Aboriginal neighbor for instance could actually pass as a tanned European.

Head up to Central Australia though, the place where Europeans tend to combust into a ball of flames from the Sun... And thus there having been less of a European influence, it's more common for Aboriginals to retain their extremely dark complexion, not always as there is still some mixing from those Aboriginals with other Aboriginals of lighter complexion.

Australia and Brazil are very much different countries though, not just ethnically, but environmentally, immigration/colonialism as well.

Of course modern influences have muddied the water which I have alluded to. Did you miss that part or something?

But if you disagree with the science that I have presented, the onus is on you to provide a better source.
Aka. "Put up or Shut up".

And I acknowledged that people who have a mixed heritage is a common occurrence because of modern influences.
