Although it does seem weird since this game does seem to be based on Nordic mythology it wouldn't be any more inaccurate than having tobacco, so I can't say I'm outright against it just that having brown, yellow, red and black characters would seem weird to me.

How do I learn more about this? Should I search Wikipedia for 'Negroid' or 'Phenotype'?

Look up human phenotypes. There's a couple actually, all of them Ecoclines from human adaptation. the major ones are Mongoloid, cacausoid, and I cannot currently recall the one for white people at the moment.

Wait, if races don't exist, what are you complaining about again?
