Well, if we follow that tangent, just look at Kayo's culture (that we know). There is a (seemingly) lighter skinned family living in Enbizaka and Kayo, with light (though not really pale) skin and dark hair. The dark hair is consistent with rl Asians and seemingly so with this watchman's nation.

If Snakeland is the same country, then there might be an interracial struggle occurring in the country between East and West. The King wanted to halt Western influence and so shut them out.

Considering a civil war breaks out that same year, it might be that some factions of the people (perhaps one being who that Veno descendant fought for)  were wanting to expand western influence and won. Hence why we see more western skin/hair/eye colors appearing during Kayo's time.

Nothing definitive but I can totally see that happening.
