"Gap Year Adventures"

Our Heroines

Rivka is definitely based on the Discworld equivalent of a Jewish or Isreali person I can tell by her full name

Mariella is definitely South African... Hopefully a Post-apartheid South Africa. If not I hope she has no truck with the idea.... She seems to be the sort of person who would hate that idea so much... (and want to do something about it...)

Seems Mariella is the latest in a line of family trouble makers!

Cenotia

Definitely somewhere in Isreal... Klatch is probably Palestine

You can't make it anymore obvious by having it near/on the Golem Heights.... :)

Tzit and Otherz

The whole first scene - Totally not the stoning scene with John Cleese from Monty Python's Life of Brian!

Dibblers get everywhere don't they?

Sultana Miriam

Was going to say she seems Islamic until I read the footnotes... Also never knew the name for a female Sultan was the name of a fruit too!
