One of the goals of Oathkeep is to let the historical reality of Earth guide the development of humans, not some anglo-centric fantasy. Particularly, Oathkeep calls attention to the major culture groups, most of which predate all of history, and how they explain our history far better than the transient nations, flags, and wars of written record.
