I have noticed the weirdest thing in my game, 'White Ethiopians'. Due to some marriage choices and things of the Abyssinian Kingdom, they have some how managed to produce themselves as genetically Western Europeans.

I have since writing above, searched through them all to see how many are like that, and it is King and Duke, and a couple of counts. However, I managed to find a count who is 'Black' and guess what... he wasn't Ethiopian, he was German.
I once saw an Ethiopian Holy Roman Emperor and a russian Queen of England.. in separate games, of course! It's very rare, but that kind of radical shift is pretty humorous to see.
