3. Does it matter what kingdom I hold alliegence to other than the simple stuff?

4. Last of all, I wanna be a Mithra, should I be a thief, monk, or red mage when I start, I know I can change classes, so help me out.
1. It's roughly 12-13 dollars or so a month, a bit more for every extra character you have. And you pay the smarter way, every month, so you don't waste money like other MMO's that force you to pay for more then you want to play.

2. It's and advanced job as is every job in the game minus the base 6.

3. Nationality matters in conquest (what nation rules what reigions) what items you can buy using conquest points, and what missions you end up doing. Though some of the missions before rank 6 are the same regardless of nation, just with a few different cut scenes and NPC's you talk to. Beyond that there isn't a whole lot of difference except the way your character /salutes. But you can always change nationalites with only a loss of all conquest points penalty though anyways.

4. Whatever you want to start as. Mithras are nice in thier versatile and can adapt well to any job better then other races can (namely Galka mages and Taru tanks) but if I had to suggest any of them, then I'ld say Monk, just because it's easier to play (punch and use combo pretty much up to 30) and probably the most simplistic job in the game. It's also not over expensive to play either as you can go without a weapon till around level 10 or so. And in that time you can learn the basic mechanics. Though whatever job you want to take to 75, I'ld suggest leveling up your sub for it as that way you can get the exping for it out of the way early on.
