Conflict
DIVERGENT - Trailer - Official [HD] - 2014
In Divergent, their are 5 factions and when your around the age 16-18 you have to choose one. First you take a test and they get into your head then give you your worst fears. There are certain people that think all of the factions, they are called Divergents. Next they go to the choosing ceremony and they get to choose whatever faction they wanted. They don't have to pick the faction that fits them the best. When they choose one they have to stay there for the rest of their lives or they become factionless.
Symbolism- The Five Faction
Erudite
Erudite is the faction with all the smarts. They are trying to take over the government.
Amity
Amity is always working in the fields. They are peaceful, loving, and playful.
Abnegation
Abnegation is the selfless. They always feed the factionless before themselves. Abnegation controls the government. Every other faction thinks that they are saving the food for themselves.
Dauntless
Dauntless is the brave. They are the guards that protect the factions from the other factions.
Candor
Candor is the honest. They also takes part in the government and believe the truth is the perfect thing.
Factionless
The factionless is what it says in the name, they don't belong to a faction. That is what you would be if you wanted to leave your faction.
Setting
I think this is a setting that will happen in the future. At first Tris lives in Abnegation it is very dull and gray. That is where most of the factionless live because Abnegation is always giving them food and drink. Abnegation are the last people to eat. They also control most of the government. When Tris decides to leave her family for Dauntless her whole world changes. Dauntless is brave and they wear tight black pants and shirts. When they go anywhere they jump off trains. It has a huge dome that has a large bottom and if you jump then you will get hurt really bad. When Tris changes factions her whole world changes.
The Dauntless wear the black outfits-The Abnegation wear the gray outfit
Book Recommendation
I think Divergent is a very good book. I recommend this for thrill seekers. If you have read the Hunger games series then this is the book for you. You get to use your imagination because the author explains everything with a great amount of detail. It is an adventure that you can see how every faction is different. Read the book to make your imagination fly.
