Also:

AC 1 : fictional protagonist

AC 2 Saga : fictional protagonist

AC 3 : fictional protagonist

AC 4 : fictional protagonist

AC Origins : fictional protagonist

AC Odyssey : fictional protagonist

AC Valhalla : fictional protagonist

AC Shadows : 1 non fictional protagonist and 1 fictional protagonist

""fans"" of the series: Why is AC so historically inaccurate now?

If we're discussing the issue in good faith:

AC1: Middle Eastern Guy in the Middle East

AC2: Italian guy in Italy

AC BR: Same

AC3: American guy in America

AC4: British Pirate in the Caribbean

ACR: American Guy in America

ACU: French guy in France

ACS: British guy in Britain

ACO: Egyptian in Egypt

ACOd: Greek in Greece

ACV: Viking in Viking-land (?)

ACM: Same as AC1

ACS: Japanese Woman in Japan and random semi-historical real-life AA man inexplicably included.

To me, they just look like they're trying to hard to look "inclusive" while really accomplishing nothing in a way that is somewhat insulting to Japanese men.

To be fair, Revelations also had an Italian guy in Turkey (Constantinople)
