Aaand now I've just thought of something else. Remember in volume 3, Qrow told a little story about his trip to Mistral, and we got 2D visuals of it? The buildings in his story didn't look traditional Asian.

In the east.

We only saw part of the eastern area of the Kingdom of Mistral, and the area of Anima that's near there.

It's possible that the more European type cultures are in the western regions of Mistral.
