Here is the link of the map of the whole world

The Empire:

They are based on the on the Holy Roman Empire, they too work like the HRE, like the Emperor title is elected by the princes if the most powerful family on the realm. Their units is also that of a Renaissance HRE

The Dwarfs:

Their units are based on the combination of Kingdom if Scotland during the medieval period for the infantry and living place, machines for the Byzantine Empire(This is more like an analogy because the Byzantine are technologicaly advance for its time but they have a crappy internal politic scene just like the dwarves) the cannons and gunpowder affinity for the Ottoman, lastly they were based on the typical dwarves you could think of like great smiths and drinkers. Their government type is Monarchy which kenas they have a king and a council of sort.

Greenskinz:

They were the orks and goblins, they are your typical brutes based off the barbarians of the north(not from Sweden or Denmark but more of Russian except they does sacrifices to gods of their own.)Their government type is tribal and they have different tribes and tribal leaders.

Norsca:

They were based off from the vikings and lives on the extreme north and does pillaging and looting.Governement type is Tribal and different tribes have different leaders.

Chaos faction:

They were the Norscan people but has a thing for metal or hard rock. They are nomadic and doesn't occupy settlements and they were the enemies of the Norsca. Their government type is tribal which means they have no single leader but different leaders of each tribe.

Brettonia:

Based off from the combined British and French culture with the tinge of the Arthurian legends sprinkled upon. They have chivalric code, knightly vows, etc. basically they live on honor and has a powerful cavalry but crappy infantry and a pretty good archers. Their government is monarchy meaning they have nobilites and a class system with a king on top.

Vampire counts:

Their history is based on the vampire myths, it's your typical vampire cliché, they have powerful monster creatures etc. and the first vampire know is Vlad von Carstein(He's Dracula, just search his title you will know) Their government type is fuedal, basically the Vampire counts is a noble on their own because they were humans formerly and they rule upon their lands.

Beastmen:

Based off from the Monggol Empire, they were nomadic but they occupy settlements and were extremely savage and brutal.

Skaven:

They were based on rats on the time of Black death because they can appear and disappear leaving destruction behind. Their government type is that of an unstructured one, they have no high leader and they follow their alpha like a pack and they live underground.

Lizardmen:

They were based on the Aztecs due to their appearances and the way they act.They does rituals and were extremely religious.Their government type is a Monarchy, they have a single king ang everyone follows his rules.

Tomb Kings:

Based off on the culture of Egypt before the reign of Cleopatra. They have pyramids and were literally walking mummies that were awakened due to magic, this also includes their own army.

Wood Elves:

Think of the night elves on Warcraft, they are like that except more green and has a thing for leaves and wood. They have a king which makes them a Monarchy and they were basically the Switzerland of the Warhammer fantasy due to their neutrality.

High Elves: They live on the horseshoe like landmass and have a king which is named as the Phoenix King, they were kind of racist and think highly of themselves and lowly for the other races. They were loosely based on the British Empire of around 15th to 18th century.

Dark Elves:

The Americans of the Warhammer fantasy. They rebelled against the High Elves, they were High elves before they did Dark arts. They were a Monarchy the king being called The Witch King. Their economy is reliant on slaves that they got. (You get it? No? okay then let me explain... America is fornerly a British colony then they rebelled and became independent then built their economy through slaves)

I hope this somewhat hepls you in anyway.

Keep safe everyone <3
