^Actually, there's not a clear good or bad distinction here. Yeah, Noxians don't really have what we'd consider valid morals, but their philosophy is very Darwinist, saying that the strong will survive and rule. Externally this seems pretty harsh (although I find it pretty awesome), and Demacia's honor and duty seems more desirable, but when you get inside the system, you might think differently (check out Lux's lore). Surprisingly you can actually draw more connections between Demacia and communist countries, and Noxus and capitalism. Not sure what that says about the world today..

Also, Freljord is probably leaning heavily towards the Demacian side. Bilgewater'd probably be leaning towards the "bad" side, while Piltover (city of knowledge and study) would also probably be on your Demacian side. Riot makes the citystates nice and differentiated in lore but I don't think it's actually as cut and dry as good or bad :)
