How much history outside of Europe-Asia inspired ASOIAF? I’m reading 1491 and some of the Inka material reminded me of the Targaryens. I imagine there’s some good sub-Saharan African material to draw on as well, though I’m less familiar with that.

In general, start from what’s likely to have been in GRRM’s research base. Which has tended to be very Euro-centric.
