    No one decided that, if you’re looking at Tolkien based fantasy then of course it’s British because it’s British fantasy

    All of the Asian fantasy I’ve seen has been populated by people of their respective country.

    Everyone knows the Grim Reaper is Jamaican

    This post is stupid, just write your desired fantasy

    Pretty sure because the “original” fantasy was written as a false history for England (LoTR was this). So it makes sense that the people would bear an English accent

    The German translation of Baldur’s Gate decided for some reason that elves spoke in an east-German accent. Imagine Legolas sounding like he was from Texas.
