I know "ethnicity as D&D race" is a pretty problematic concept, but I sorta *would* like to see dwarves get a sort of Korean culture - I feel like Korean technological innovations and a written language designed for utility are very "dwarfy," and it'd be an interesting alternative to making dwarves into Scandinavians with inexplicably Scots accents again.

@Leucrotta As dwarves are seen as men of the mountains, I've been thinking about making their cultures mirror a more fantastic version of mountain cultures we have on earth. I'm focusing mostly on Incan and Tibetan cultures.
@CrownedRat Wow, yeah. Quechua stuff would work for big organized kingdoms, the engineering feats which take into account having pack animals but not enough space to really get carts around, the big expertly fitted walls, the whole focus on bravery.
