In fact, Seandar was the invaded country. Luthair Paendrag took his army over there, established an empire, then brought it back.
And Rand himself realized that the Seanchan empire is not a bad place to be, except for 3 things:
1. Single absolute ruler (albeit currently a benevolent dictatorship)
2. Da'covale
3. Damane
Take those away, replace the damane and da'covale with the AOL definition of Aes Sedai and Aiel (basically servants of all), and you have a pretty awesome society. Not sure how to go about replacing the Empress though... Mat and Tuon will need to be better parents IMO.

It seems clear to me that Rand bowing to the Seanchan Empress is the cause of all the problems...

Hang on, the Seanchan MUST be repelled from Randland. They are invaders.

Aviendha's visions were the most disturbing scene I have ever read in the entire Wot series...

I was out-disturbed by the mass suicide of the Amayar, but this was disturbing in a different way

If only. But it sounds like they're being captured and used to secure power for the Empress.
