Because Evelyn told Tris and Tobias not to leave the city, I predict that they will run away. I can predict this because on page 20, the text says, "But Evelyn hasn't liberated us like she thinks-she's just made us all factionless. She's adraid of what we would choose, if we were given actual freedom. And that means that no matter what I believe about the factions, I'm relieved that someone , somewhere, is defying her." Evelyn does not want people to leave the city because she knows that when they do, she will lose power. From this knowledge, I can predict that Tobias and Tris will leave becasue they want dictatorship to end, and for everyone to be free.
I can also predict that people will come together, and learn to get along. On page 38, Tobias states, "The symbols of our old way of life, destroyed- a man dead, others injured- and for what? For nothing. For Evelyn's empty, narrow vision: a city where factions are wrenched away from people against their will. She wanted us to have more than five choices. Now we have none." From the text I can predict that the people will soon learn to come together and take down Evelyn and great a world without dictatorship.
Questions-
- What was the original purpose of factions?
- Why are people not allowed to leave the city?
- What is beyond the city line?
- Where is Marcus?
- Where is Tris' brother?
- Is there still a division between factionless and exfactioned, or is everyone factionless?
- Will Tris and Tobias leave the city?
- What has happend to Edith Prior?

This ruined world reminds me of the world from "The Immortal Rules" and "The Eternity Cure", both written by Julie Kagawa. In the world created by Julie Kagawa, a plague has torn down all human civilization. Vampires have climbed the government ladder, and are the dictators of the Old United States. They give the humans within the city two choices: either become blood cattle and be given food, or starve. A girl named Alison, who is a vampire herself, is trying to stop Salazar, the ruler of the city she lives in.
This world reminds me of the world of Allegiant because both of the humans are given a choice of where to go and live, and if they will have a safe or dangerous life. Also, both goverments are corrupted and ruled by dictatorship.
Text to World:
Our world is relatable to the word of Allegiant because the factions appear in our society. People with different interests will always divide into groups, just like our society today. The factions also represent different groups of people.
Text to Self:
I am a lot like Tris, and I can relate to her when she chose to leave the city. This is like me because Tris is the kind of person that will put herself before others, and make decisions that regard everyone, and not just herself. When Tris decided to leave the city, she make the choice to let people continue having dictatorship in a corrupt society, or risk her life to find out what may fix her world. Tris made the decision that helped everyone and not just herself.
