Strange, I didn't know that the germans were dwarves (Ulm is not supposed to be dwarves).

R'lyeh is mostly based on Chtuhlu.
I mistook ULM for D&D dwarves
what is Chtuhlu?
Is there a theme for african tribes in DOM-II?
What about the Arab nations at 700-1400? they were very powerfull. they can make a very interesting theme.

Cthulhu is a godlike alien sleeping in the sunken city of R'lyeh from the writings of H.P. Lovecraft, a noted horror writer active in the nineteen twenties and thirties. He is hugely influential and there are Lovecraft references spread out in various movies and computer games. If you havent read anything I suggest you try one, his language is a bit convulted and his characters are two dimensional but many of thee stories are enjoyable reads anyway. My favourites by him are: "The rats in the walls" and "The mountains of madness". The illithids in dominions are an amalgamation of the AD&D mindflayers and Lovecrafts mythology, the Lovecraftian flavour of Rlyeh will be more pronounced in dom 2.

The new nation Machacka is pseudo African.
