It's true you wont be playing medieval european fantasy anymore but Medieval Asia needs fireworks and the 16th Century is still ancient enough to be Fantastic, heck even Napoleanic era can be exotic fantasy without going steampunk.My self I haven't used a medieval europe background for a long while, indeed my last few homebrews have included Hawaiki:Mythic Polynesian, The Yuan Empire (inspired by China under Kubilai Khan), The Kingdom of Anziko (Medieval African Sahel) and a Solomon Kane inspired alternate 16/17th Century in which Lyonnes has risen bring Scotland and Ireland under Fae dominion, Cromwells Protectorate has extended across France (Cromwell survived) forcing the Witches to flee beyond the Black Forest or to the New world, the Grand Inquisitor Torquemada became Pope, the Ottoman Empire employs Djinn, the Orient is still mysterious and Africa is still unexplored.I look to myth and legend more than history but through history in if it's cool enough to fit my story....</blockquote>
