Mentioned in a Question. . . Why?

Q: Escade is to Kringalia like Treadwellia is to...
A: Lethen

I never received this question, but apparently, I'm not up on how I connect to these other folks in this analogy. Is anyone able to explain this one?

Thanks from Treadwellia!

Hell if I know. I figured that one out by trial-and-error.

I do think I figured out the reason for the other two "A is to B like C is to D" questions (even the one where B had ceased to exist), but I did hate that type of question in general. You just have to guess what the author is thinking of, since there's really any number of things that two nations can be compared on.

I never figured that one out either, and didn't even try to figure it out.

The A/B to C/D questions were very much annoying yeah, never got a clue how one could reasonably search for an answer that would be helpful on any of them.

...Okay, no, I thought I had the other two figured out, but on closer inspection I appear to have misremembered the details, and my explanations don't actually work.

This one all had to do with their powers as Regional Officers.

Both Escade and Kringalia are Regional Officers of their region and have powers of Appearance, Border Control, Communications, and Polls.

Treadwellia (at the time that trivia was going on) was a Regional Officer with Appearance, Border Control, Communications, Embassies, and Polls. He is now the delegate so this question is outdated at this point. However the only other choice that was a Regional Officer with these same powers was Lethen.
