I think I undersstand what you're getting at, Lord Mevans. If something doesn't contradict with canon (i.e. lions, zebras, hobbit orcharders), why wouldn't it be in the mod. In fact, if it doesn't contradict canon, but makes sense (i.e. differently aligned iinhabitants of a single continent), it should be in the mod. If you think that you need to go outside canon for some things (i.e. the avari, Rhun, Far Harad), then you should. If it somehow contradicts with canon, and you don't know about it, then I'm sure someone will tell you somehow.
