The book, "Divergent", is set in future Chicago. The city is set up in five different factions: Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless, and Erudite. The story is an amazing thriller about a girl named Beatrice from the faction, Abnegation, who is now having to choose which faction she will live in for the rest of her life. Note that she will leave her family if she were to leave Abnegation. But this isn't about her. This is about you. I have arranged questions for you. All you have to do is choose the answer choice that best suits you, and then post the letters on the Forums. I will tell you which faction best suits you.

Remember, that the faction that I will tell you will only be a suggestion of where you might find it best. If you decide not to follow the survey's results and still don't know what to choose, I'll brief you on each faction.
Abnegation
People of Abnegation don't draw attention to themselves. They are more concerned with other people than themselves. If selfishness weren't so widespread, they believe that the world would be a better place. Other people see them as a difficult person to get along with, but seem kind and quiet.
Amity
People of Amity find peace when people around you are getting along. They appreciate music and arts. they believe that aggression and hostility are the blame for the world's problems. Others find them flaky and indecisive, but also easygoing and warm.
Candor
People of Candor are honest with anyone, no matter how much trouble it gets them into. They don't get offended easily; they prefer the truth. The world would be a better place if everyone could be honest and forthright with one another. Others find them insensitive, but also trustworthy and confident.
Dauntless
People of Dauntless love an adrenaline rush. Nobody dictates their behavior. They believe that the world would be better if people were not afraid to do what they think is necessary to make things right. Others see them as abrasive, but strong and bold.
Erudite
People of Erudite love enjoying new things. They tend to make decisions based on logic rather than instincts or emotions. They believe that the world would be a better place if everyone were well-educated and devoted to learning. Other people see them as condescending, but intelligent and insightful.
Now that you know what each faction is all about, which would you shed your blood on during the Choosing Ceremony?
Please post your answers and what faction you would prefer to be part of on the Forums. Do you think that your survey answers change your decision if this was your case right now?
Author's Note: I got ideas for the survey survey from my Divergent book.
