Mmm......Qrow mentioned in passing in Vale's WoR that the Faunus "have Menagerie", didn't he? He could've meant that it was "faunus-dominated". Kinda like Africa.

Judging from the Vytal Festival, and the WoRs, Menagerie isn't considered a Kingdom, at least not an official one. It could've been that she grew up there, which technically counts as "outside the kingdoms".....

......But if it's truly faunus-dominated, the discrimination against Faunus makes little sense there. I wonder if Menagerie is stuck in some sort of Africa situation, or was. The disenfranchised majority was subjugated under the minority for a while. And it took a while before they were completely independent.

That or because her family owns a boat they could've travelled to places where fuanas mistreatment was much more prevelant and she got caught up in it.
