Or potatos in medieval fantasy. Medieval Europe absolutely had more black people than potatos, because the number of potatos in medieval Europe was zero. But somehow nobody in the "muh realism" crowd gets upset when Sam cooks aftercare potatos for Frodo.
To be fair, Middle Earth isn't necessarily Medieval Europe, but Samwise Gamgee was described in the books as having darker skin.
Okay but the potato thing does bother me.
