Man, Elon Musk is, like, really fucking dumb lmao. No way they win this lawsuit, even in a battle of who can pay legal fees longer Disney is going to own his ass.

Let me check some history real quick to make sure I've got some facts right...

The Romans brought a lot of black people to England, as early as the second century, when they built Hadrian's Wall, and even had black centurions up there to hold the wall.

Arthur was sixth and seventh centuries, hundreds of years later.

The moors conquered Spain in the 700s, a century after Arthur. They stuck around in Europe through the 1200s (and a little later) before being given the boot.

But just because there was conflict doesn't mean there wasn't commerce or travel.

Robin Hood was during the 1100s. There was plenty of travel to and from the holy land, which meant there was plenty of brown people for the Europeans to encounter.

So... depending on the story you're telling, 80% feels a little high for most period pieces outside a royal family or court setting.

The UK had to have been more diverse than popular media has led us to believe. There's just too much bleed over in cultures and kingdoms throughout history on the continent.

Researching it, you're more right about it than a lot of people probably realize and for the right reasons.
