@mods Resolves "North America"

I closed the market so @Bayesian will get a ping to resolve, as he's active but may have missed it. Bayesian? 👋

Is there a breakdown of where these Imperial Guards, I mean Cardinals, are from? Historically they were from Europe, but who knows anymore.

What does this resolve to if he is an islander? Specifically, what continent resolves if it is Luis Tagle? N/A!
