I've recently made a bunch of friends interested in playing Pathfinder 2e, so I'm building a custom 1hr One-Shot for 6 players to learn the game (yes I know that time is a lie). The lore is amazing! It's got roughly 8 thousand years of history to create the current world of Golarion. The history is deep and rich, and some of that is because it's based on real world cultures and histories. There's obviously fantasy too, but a lot of nations and empires mimic real history, so it's very believable.
