So I've got this fantasy planet X, where humanoid peoples Y and Z are at war on an island nation about the size of England, and they've been at war with each other for hundreds of years. They are two very distinct peoples, with different physical appearances, traditions, religions, languages, customs, and the like. Is it realistic to say that they can still be so rigidly different and still warring with each other after hundreds of years, without any kind of cultural diffusion? Will readers buy the concept of two cultures living in such close proximity but being so drastically dissimilar, and remaining that way for a long time?
