You got it wrong the Civire look the most American from their models in EVE and the Deities look German the Achura do look like some kind of Asian culture though.

Caldari are more early Industrial Japanese Culture but I have seen the similarities drawn between the settling Americans and the Caldari.

American Japanese hybrid, RL Japanese corporations favored passing down rule/ownership from heir to heir (was expected, the norm, not seen as corrupt), American Corporations did not and spouted more meritocentric ideals.

Edit:

Also Japanese Corporate Culture was entirely borrowed from American Corporate Culture, there are still differences though.

Caldari Mega corps are or were primarily passed down through heirs, corporate meritocracy was only recently brought back by Heth during his time of control

Unless I am mistaken, the order was meritocracy, nepotism, back to meritocracy, with nepotism being a smaller part of their history.

Interesting OP.

I always thought the Amarr were an extension or extreme extrapolation of a conservative religious American culture.

I thought the true Amarr were Muslims. Hence the strong religion and Arabic/middle eastern names sounding names.

Perhaps but their architecture and design to me, not to mention their religious tenets, suggest more of a christianic bent to their style.

Caldari have strong Japanese culture survived the gate collapse so they're very likely japanese. Many of the main line caldari naval orders are named by various japanese blades, as are mordu legion.

Most governments or ideals of them did not survive the collapse at all. While concepts are familiar the traits in each of them are drastically different enough you cannot really compare them to anything on earth.

For example there is no country in existence on earth yet or has that mimics the caldari order. While there are many traits embodied by the caldari that can be found in many other governments and cultures there is nothing that comes close to where something like Nasdaq board runs the entire nation.

Same goes for the Amarrians, Gallente, and Matar. Most of those are bastardizations of what we're familiar with with a splash of differences between what we know. This however is very great for fiction as it allows holes to be filled in due time.
