![]() ![]() They seem to have no concrete definition because they’re more like emotions than tangible things-they’re imagined communities. But despite how much we talk about it, nobody really knows what “nation,” “nationality” and “nationalism” mean. ![]() The idea of the nation is so strong that everyone assumes everyone else belongs to one the most important international political body is called the United Nations and since World War II every successful revolution has defined itself in national terms.

I'd have liked it better if Saba hadn't got pantsfeelings for basically the first young, attractive dude she laid eyes on, but that's me quibbling. ![]() I wasn't quite convinced that just because Saba was accustomed to physical labor that she would be a competent hand-to-hand fighter, but she was basically a berserker, so that's okay, I guess. Why the Louis XIV getup? The gold face paint? Constantly referring to himself as the King? I wish there had been some more exploration of his character. ![]() Beyond Saba, most of the supporting characters were well-fleshed, except for the totally bizarro Evil Overlord. She wasn't totally reformed by the end of the book and there's lots of potential for her in the next, so it felt organic and not forced. She starts off as quite selfish and a little too focused on her brother (was I the only one who found it a little weird?) but as her exposure to the world grew, so did she. Giant man-eating worms?
