You are right, of course.
To be honest, I just did this for for the fun of it and didn't think up a whole lot of detail for the world's background.
On the other hand, since this is a completely fictional world, why not add some low-level magic into the equation?
I know, the old "a wizard did it" thing is kind of a lame excuse, but maybe some location-divination-thingy could have helped?
Just adding some food for thought here.
