FUN FACT: Did you know that Germanic religions literally elevated Asians to the position of godhood?

>The most interesting use of the word æsir is that of Snorri Sturluson in the euhemerization project he set forth in the preface to his Edda and in the opening chapters of Ynglinga saga. Ásía, the Old Norse word for Asia, appeared to contain the word áss, although of course it does not, and Snorri used the sound similarity to suggest that the original meaning of æsir was “men of Asia.” Chapter 2 of Ynglina saga begins as follows:
>To the east of Tanakvísl [the river Don] in Asia was known as Ásaland [land of the æsir] or Ása-heimr [world of the æsir], and the principle stronghold in the land they called Ásgard.
White men literally worshipped Asians as gods.
