I am way off in that case. I guess I assumed Oberyn was from the same place as the dancing teacher because they both look Italian and everyone seems to insult them for being greasy. Where is Bravos? Isn't Dorne not one of the 7 kingdoms? I thought the Martels fell under the rule of the crown. Why does everyone insult those from Dorne but not insult the Martells?

This is my map from the other day:



You see King's Landing (in yellow)? Dorne is the foot-looking part on the bottom of that continent.

ETA: Braavos is on the top part of the other continent, above the "Ho" of "Holy shite."

Dorne is the southern-most region of Westeros. It's like the region that has its own norms and doesn't follow in lock step with the rest of Westeros, but is still part of the 7 kingdoms. (like Texas, perhaps). I think it is well established with Oberyn's dialogue that those from Dorne know they do things differently and are looked down upon. Oberyn has been passively insulted a few times by Tywin and Cersei in previous episodes.

Braavos is across the Narrow Sea.

I believe Westeros is an Island and Essos is a continent across the Narrow Sea from it. Bravos is in Essos near the top directly across the Narrow Sea from The Vale in Westeros. Dorne is the southern most region of Westeros. This map looks spoiler free, just place names. You might want to open it separately so you can blow it up full size LINK

Check out HBO's viewers guide. It helped me a ton when looking throught he Map. You can choose an episode and it can show you where the scenes were located.

Dorne is in Westoros in the bottom right hand corner.
