Accents thought

I was thinking, with the majority of the announced cast being British, and the fact that a lot of the casting was supposed to be centered on getting Britsh actors in, it's fairly obvious that the Westerosi are going to be talking in British (or Western European) accents - in keeping with the paralells between Westeros and Medieval England (and France and Spain, for the reach and Dorne). But that does raise the question of what people from the Free Cities talk like.

Now you might look at the geography and say Swedish, Danish and German, or you might look at the culture and say Mediterranean countries like Morocco, Egypt, Turkey and Greece. Or you could pull things out of left field and give them all North American accents. Like this:

Braavos - Boston

Pentos - Pittsburgh

Norvos - New Jersey

Lys - Lousiana

Myr - Minnesota

Lorath - Los Angeles

Tyrosh - Tennessee

Volantis - Virginia

Qohor - Quebec

Thinking about it... no, not really.
