What real life continent or land is Kunark based on?

[Findlyn]

Purely based off of aesthetics of some of the Iksar armor, the weapons they use, and some of the architecture, its eastern Asian based; Japan/China/etc.

However, its a fantasy game, I doubt other than some of the aesthetics its largely based to reflect IRL location. Especially when you consider most of the rest of the world(before and after kunark) dont have any other easily identifiable "Oh this is 100% x country/society"
