Dude, the place you're looking for is Egypt. Alabasta is even named after one of Egypt's primary mineral exports. The religious references you're talking about come from Chaka and Pell's parallel to Anubis and Horus, respectively. Also, just about everyone is white in OP, with only like 9 people excepted, not including fishmen.
