1. Do you pay attention to the real world correlations to the randland countries?

Yes.

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?

Yes, and I think it makes the Empire seem smaller than it supposedly is.

3. If you have to be Cairhienin or Domani, which would you be, and why?

Domani - A) I like being tall, B) I like the idea of an active social life and C) The weather (and eye candy) seems a lot more attractive

4. Of the currently existing Borderlands, which would you most enjoy being a citizen of?

Arafel - it seems to have one of the more temperate range of climates and it's not that far from Tar Valon. Plus it seems relatively rough yet has it's area of civilization, giving you more freedom than some of the more restrictive and developed nations, such as Shienar or Saldaea.

5. Of the historic nations (the 10 nations or any of the other fallen nations), which would you be from?

Safer - I actually think Falme sounds quite pleasant; too bad that by the time we were introduced to it, Seanchan were all over the. place

6. If you had to be from Tear or Illian, which would you be from?

Illian - I don't think Tear sounds that nice; it seems hot, full of poverty and overall, too much of a large urbanized area to be comfortable for me year round. Illian sounds romantic, especially with it's Hunt for the Horn and the overall image of the city as being Greek-inspired.

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?

Mayene. I'm sensitive and stubborn but flexible, and favor a strong willed partner that has a definite opinion and if they don't care, give me full reign.

8. As a non-channeling woman, would you prefer to live in Tar Valon or Amadicia?

Tar Valon - it is the safest city in all of the Westlands, even if you had to stand on ceremony half the time and curtsy every other street. You also get to see a little bit of every nation due to Tar Valons' trading importance, so you could have a cosmopolitan lifestyle in the midst of a city that is similar to New York.

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)?

A part that's claimed but never sees their monarch. Less chance of powerful players telling me what to do, and more chance of some independent but can claim to be part of something larger.

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?

I think the Seafolks' ancestors were just members of a population that took to the sea for their safety, and who may have taken some dai'shain Aiel into their boats after working out an arrangement in which the pacifistic culture would manufacture items for use on their ships. Eventually they found the Isles, and the pacifistic culture of dai'shain became the Amayar.

11. Why do you think Seanchan Ogier who serve in the Empress's Deathwatch Guards are called "Gardeners?"

I think they tried to recreate the Ogier stedding, and failing this, ended up creating gardens that while more fantastic than human-grown ones, were not intrinsically special.

12. How many Malkieri do you expect to answer Nynaeve's call?

A goodly amount. It would be similar to the population of people that responded to the call to Israel at the end of World War II. Certainly not enough to be considered on par with a major nation, but large enough to be considered a large gathering of religiously inspired warriors.

13. What do you think of the Andoran system of Royalty that determines fitness to rule by connection to one common ancestor?

Stupid and it probably limits many great leaders.
