I don’t really see any point in carrying this on.  You’re clearly upset for some reason that they are going to potentially make miniatures for Cathay rather than Albion.  I think what you are doing is trying to explain why what you wanted is the right thing and then explain that using fictitious lore.  At the end of the day, they could have done Albion.  Or Araby.  Or Estalia and Tilea.  They would ALL have made as much sense in the lore because the lore would simply be written to make sense.  But ultimately GW have decided to go with Cathay and the response to that announcement for Total War generated a lot of excitement so I would say it seems like a popular choice.  And the lore will be written in such a way as to allow it to “make sense”.

I really don’t know what anyone could say that would ease your suffering at this point.  It is what it is and nothing you say will change it.  It does make sense, you just don’t like it.  And it’s OK that you don’t like it but you really need to understand that’s literally just your own opinion.  It can be explained by all of things you have said about the lore, but that doesn’t change your subjective opinion into objective fact.  It just explains why you think the way you do.  My opinions on Bretonnia aren’t really objectively true, they’re just my own subjective opinions.
