Personally, I've been particularly interested in the conflicts between racial cultures and the dominant cultures of the city-states -- which would be heavily influenced by Midlander Hyur culture, seeing how they're allegedly the most populous race. I especially find the Miqo'te culture clashes interesting, and I know that if I make any Miqo'te characters, they'll definitely have some strong opinions (either pro- or anti-) their tribal culture. If anyone remembers the guild Skathris Ven'sho from EQ1, I'd love to see something like that show up for Miqo'te.
Right now, I've actually got a couple of Miqo'te concepts, one of which will be a pretty direct agitator against Miqo'te traditions -- going so far as to call the Seekers barbaric and the Keepers hypocritical power hoarders. That ought to stir up some conflict.
I've got another character concept who's a Duskwight Elezen who's just terribly nice and wants to mend the bridges between his/her people and the Wildwood Elezen. This character, though, doesn't like the Hyur, seeing them as a dangerous force of cultural and racial hegemony.
