Talk:12 Nations/@comment-26269248-20160129051618

Something I didn't really think about until after watching Wanheda Part 2 (though I have no idea why): Let's just say for the sake of argument that Mount Weather had not been in the U. S. but 1 of the other 11 Nations, how would that have affected the series? Think about it, the only reason the Delinquents were sent to Mount Weather (which is supposedly in the state of Virginia) is because that was as Jaha said that it's the best place to survive a nuclear war, but if it had been in say Brazil, China, India, Russia, or Uganda then the show would have several major differences/changes.

For 1 thing, the Sky People seem to all just speak English, so if the show took place in 1 of these countries where English is not the dominant language then it would be even harder for the 2 groups to communicate/Mount Weather's residents may not communicate with them as well if very few knew English.

Also, I am going to assume that the conditions on The Ark were standard temperature/climate of like 72 degrees Fahrenheit/22 degrees Celsius, so while in Virginia in the Fall the conditions (for the most part) of the 1st 2 seasons would have been similar to those on The Ark, in places that were more hot, cold, or dry for longer periods of time, I would imagine that they would have been more uncomfortable in those environments.

Lastly, I could imagine the Grounder societies (since I would suspect that there would be some survivors in most of these countries unless the only survivors were in America) would be different than the 1 we see on the show; i.e. a different mythology/religion and government system that would match those of the country before the nuclear war, less diversity in the Grounders compared to the 1s from America, and maybe even different mutations for both humans and animals.

What do you guys think about this?
