1. Do you pay attention to the real world correlations to the randland countries?
2. Have you ever wondered why all Seanchan seem to be described as having a drawling accent, even though they're from all over a second continent, and so should have multiple accents?
3. If you have to be Cairhienin or Domani, which would you be, and why?
4. Of the currently existing Borderlands, which would you most enjoy being a citizen of?
5. Of the historic nations (the 10 nations or any of the other fallen nations), which would you be from?
6. If you had to be from Tear or Illian, which would you be from?
7. You are a man (just for this question) and have to marry a woman from WoT. Which nation would you go wife-hunting in?
8. As a non-channeling woman, would you prefer to live in Tar Valon or Amadicia?
9. Would you prefer to be from part of the globe unclaimed by any country (like the Caralain Grass) or from a part that's claimed, but never sees their monarch (the Two Rivers)?
10. What is your theory on the origin of the Seafolk? Are they connected to dai'shain aiel from the AoL, or are they simply the descendants of the lucky people who were able to get to a boat during the Breaking?
11. Why do you think Seanchan Ogier who serve in the Empress's Deathwatch Guards are called "Gardeners?"
12. How many Malkieri do you expect to answer Nynaeve's call?
13. What do you think of the Andoran system of Royalty that determines fitness to rule by connection to one common ancestor?
That's it for now.

1. No.
2. Maby they do? When talking of Randlanders accents they say "crisp" or otherwise fast. Maby it's the same the other way round.
3. Cairhienin. I've never learnt to use chopsticks.
4. We really don't know that much of the non-military differences between the borderlands... witch one is the least brownnoser towards Aes Sedai?
5. No idea. Malkier's the only one with people still alive right?
6. Illian, seems to not be so hard on the small folk.
7. The White Tower.
8. The Witches work to elevate all women, so Tar Valon.
9. What's the difference?
10. I think we'll never get a definite answer, but I'd say option nro 2.
11. They like to trim the humans heads off their necks.
12. Around 150 000. Also other borderlanders will want to join the party.
13. It's ok if it must be monarchy, at least it's less likely to come up with a Kim syndrome. I'd prefer them changing to meritocracy however.
Stuck in Finnland!
