       *-* Can't wait to read it then, Aoyokai.
       It's always fun to do research work. :3 And it's nice that you
       asked here to start a conversation and discussion about it.

       Ah, you have posted this map where you can see typhoons..
  HTML http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon#mediaviewer/File:Pacific_typhoon_tracks_1980-2005.jpg
       I think it reaches the Maolan region, too. Barely. But that
       would also fit... Shion thought it was a present and was really
       exited. I guess storms like that are pretty rare, then.
       (Maybe they even regulated little storms, but a real typhoon is
       probably too much. ^^)

       @AoYokai: ahh, more reasons to look forward to Holy Celebration
       Week~ can't wait to read!
       @Ahiku: hmm, yeah that's true, Shion was really excited so I
       guess it's not a regular occurrence indeed... Kind of depends on
       how much No. 6 can control the climate as well, but yeah, the
       Maolan region sort of fits in that map, so it's very much
       possible indeed! (and hey, if the climate changes, there might
       be more storms. Aren't there more and more storms in 10 or 20
       year intervals anyway? Or did I remember that wrong?)

       I did not research really... but my imagination just took me to
       China, the region closer to Korea, it would roughly fit the
       climate (always depending on how much the climate would change
       after warfare) though I think it would be likely for that
       area...
       A rough (large) estimate would be somewhere around the provinces
       Jilin, Liaoning or Shandong.
       I can't say exactly why, but for some reason I don't think it
       would be the Hebei or Beijing region and certainly not Shanghai.
       Maybe it just wouldn't feel right to be that close to any major
       international population centers. And Hebei struck me as very
       barren, too. (Though I can't judge well... I've been on the
       train for around 16 hours by then and I was traveling hard-class
       (hard seats only = very tiring, especially when the train is
       even stuffed enough to have people lounging in the isle and
       standing around.).)
       To me it was always obvious that No.6 clearly had a lot of
       influences from Japan, yet it was definitely diverse. Rikiga's
       character struck me as definitely having caucasian influences as
       did some things withing No. 6. Now with places the
       drawings/designs certainly had influence. Though while reading I
       did recognise a somewhat Japanese/Asian culture, yet, I had the
       feeling Asano did include things that would be a bit untypical
       for Japan and more typical for more Western customs... At least
       more than today's Japanese culture has.
       Then the name for the "Mao" forest/people... That name just
       strikes me as something more Chinese sounding (yes, I'm totally
       taken in by cliché here...) and they were considered 'ancient'
       and well, it would fit for the mixture of cultures living in No.
       6 name them something that sounds cliché for the land that has
       once been there (for a very, very long time, China has a long
       history after all).
       I also wondered how the rest of the world has changed/shifted...
       it has been said before, things were flooded and I guess weapons
       could have changed stripes of land into very different things...
       so the map could look a bit different than we know it.
       But well, no serious research here, it's mainly based on a
       little bit of experience and a (not really) educated guess.
