In Central/Southern Europe blacks were almost never seen until recently. I recall seeing a black and white photo (so relatively recent) of someone in Poland touching a black person in astonishment.
Even today you could visit the country and see maybe five black tourists in a city of thousands. The idea of blacks in high positions of European houses is simply ridiculous. They simply were not present in the region.
