They also render aid more readily to the Domans than anyone else bar House Fortemps (praise Haurchefant). Racism on an individual level exists there, yes, but by and large Limsa Lominsa is so tolerant that they have beastmen (Qiqirn and Mamool Ja) within the city.
This level of tolerance and variety seems common in hodge podge melting pots that benefit so heavily from maritime trade. Historical giants like the British Empire, though.... ehhhh.
That might be because of the whole "Empire" thing, in regards to the example of the British. I'm not sure, though. I do know that other places that you might consider "free ports" like Tortuga were literal melting pots where, even though racism was obviously a thing, it wasn't likely going to get anyone killed on principle; rather with all those pirates it's more likely that they'd kill you for your money or for touching their favorite prostitute or even because you looked at someone funny. Pretty crazy!
