Hey guys, just some questions about the Old World (Fantasy)

I know the Empire is roughly based on the German State system before the Unification of Germany, and that the Bretonnians are based on the french herldery and Military formation.

But what about the places like Albion (Great Britain), Eastalia (Spain),Tilea (Italy) and the Kingdoms of Ind (guessing something like India) I was just wondering if there are any kingdoms running those parts of the Old Wold and who inhabbits them

There are kingdoms there, how exactly they are setup and what they do isn't really fleshed out.

AFAIK, Albion doesn't have a kingdom and is inhabited by druids who guard magic stones and Giants.
Estalia and Tilea are divided into small kingdoms and city-states, like Renaissance Spain and Italy.
Ind is in the east of the Old World like India.

Ind, Cathay and Nippon are some of the least fleshed-out named areas in Warhammer.

All the areas of the Warhammer World are based on parts of earth (the warhammer world map is almost a straight rip). Thus what's actually their in warhammer is just a fantastical depiction of what was there in that time period (ie in the real world we had griffons on our standars, in warhammer they ride them instead). Chuck in the odd Chaos Dwarf and magical kingdom of elves in the middle of the atlantic ocean and you've got warhammer. =/
