Unique items to realms would be good, they wouldn't have to have any benefits, more of a fashion thing going on

In the same way, couldn't you also expect the climate differences to effect the player characters too?! - Could be interesting either way

As for making differences to the realms in terms of strength or strategy in combat - (any big spells, alliance capabilities given to just one realm, etc.) basically anything that can be perceived as giving an unfair advantage... will just end in arguments. Chances are it'd cause that much tweaking to keep everyone happy that NGD would see it as being a mountain of trouble that will just distract them from getting the fundamental things fixed with the game. - It's the whole balance thing (even though, admittedly, war isn't balanced in reality)
That said, I'd personally like to see more differences because it would make things more interesting - or even certain spells/capabilities that were hard to find and not part of the normal skill trees... but even just with differences between classes we already have regular complaint threads about which class is overpowered and why things are unfair. Start adding unique capabilities for realms and people will be even more likely to throw their rattle out the pram... unfortunately.
If anything I'd like to see quests that were difficult, that involved going close to (or in to) enemy territory and required a bit of thinking and/or knowledge of the NPCs and the information they hold (rather than being told almost exactly where to go as is the case with most quests!) with a reward being an extra skill or something equally interesting. But I'm going off-topic now so I'll shut up.
