    Default W:TW Factions modeled after which M2:TW factions?

    So I know that The Lannisters are modeled after England, and those guys in the desert (I forget their name as I just began book #2. At first Davos chapter) are modeled after a Muslim faction, and I think it's safe to assume that the Greyjoys are modeled after the Danes (they have no calvary according to another thread) but what about the other factions?
    Jon had taken Donal and Benjen’s advice to heart: Sam may be fat and pathetic, but he is still a member of the watch, and one of the few black brothers who isn't a rapist or thief. (out of context, this sounds ridiculously racist)

    Stark is Scottland. Tully is France. Greyjoy is the Holy Roman Empire.

    I think I can answer this pretty effectively.
    Stark=Scottland (actually Scottish Rebels as a base...)
    Tully=France
    Arryn=Portugal
    Greyjoy=HRE
    Lannister=England
    Joffrey=Venice
    Tyrell=Milan
    Stannis=... Um, I actually don't remember. I think Denmark, but I could be wrong.
    Martell=Moors

    Note that this is just the base factions we used for the initial skins. Frankly, most of the factions are based on the resources of that faction in the books, and as such consist of a hodgepodge of units from various factions. It's why you see HRE Greatsword models in with the normally blue Arryns, among other things.

    Stannis is Denmark.

    "Five had been his brothers. Oswell Whent and Jon Darry. Lewyn Martell, a prince of Dorne. The White Bull, Gerold Hightower. Ser Arthur Dayne, Sword of the Morning. And beside them, crowned in mist and grief with his long hair streaming behind him, rode Rhaegar Targaryen, Prince of Dragonstone and rightful heir to the Iron Throne."
