Hey,
So my friend is starting a little PbP game of PF, and he's using the Golarion setting, or map, or whatever way you want to phrase it. Looking through the PF Wiki, to get a feel for the setting, there's SO much there. So I ask, does anyone know of a place where someone has gone and put a quick comparison to real-world equivalents?
For example, from what I know off the top of my head, the Lands of the Linnorn Kings = Skyrim (roughly) or Viking culture.
Qadira = Arabic culture
Druma = very strict Muslim culture (restrictions on diet, needing to wear only white, wearing gloves when dealing with those outside the cult).
I realise that these are to some extent tenuous comparisons, but a line or word like that helps to cement the feel of the country in my head much quicker than reading tons of backstory.
So, any takers? Who's up for this?
Conor.
