(Not saying they are, just that they are to me, just how Easterlings are Chinese/Asiatic in your opinion). I don't feel like Chinese culture is superior to Japanese or Mongolic, Turkic, Indonesian, South-East Asian, Indian or other Asiatic cultures. I feel like you're a little oversensitive on this topic. Same, but then I found the Beornings and realized how similar they are to the Germanic Tribes more east of the Rhine. So I joined them instead. I'm really waiting for a Faction to be added in Rhun similar to the Slavs or Rus or Volga.

As for the Easterlings. Easterlings are influenced by Asian cultures in general. Not just Chinese. In geography the Easterlings are more like Turkey. But in Culture they are more like Eastern Asian Cultures. However Turkey does have a lot of Eastern Asian influences because of Trade so just think of it as Medieval Turkey. Yeah, older Chinese houses don't have chimneys.
