It says on p55 "A model may add a single Region to their bloodline". When do you decide this? When making the base species? When making the class? Or can you choose when putting together your armylist? Because the sample faction on p55 has 2 Regional Traits (Mountains and Caverns).

If I'm reading this right, the sentence "A model may add a single Region to their Bloodline." is exactly what it says on the tin.
When you select the Draconic Bloodline Trait, you're able to take up to 3 bonus Draconic Traits that then compile into your starting Bloodline. In this instance, you can select one, and only one, Region to grab some bonus Traits from. This does not preclude you from selecting Traits from other Regions as part of your 3-6 starting Traits, once your Bloodline Trait has been determined.
Regional Draconic Traits just follow the one simple line,
"A model may add a single region to their Bloodline" This means the Region selected has its traits as part of the Draconic Bloodline Branch, and yes can be taken as bonus traits.
So a model may do this only once. Meaning that if you select your region as a faction trait you do not get to do it again, as all models in the faction will have already done so. If done as a Class Trait, each class could select a different Region to combine into their Bloodline.
Jack has it down. Yes you can take additional regional traits, but they do not become part of your bloodline. This can be important for stacking traits!
Traits are selected when making factions and classes, so this is not something you do when making creating an army list for a game.
To me, it would seem logical to choose a Region when you make the base Faction, but I don't see why you couldn't pick a Regional Traits only as a Class Traits, as long as you don't pick another region for another class. Do you choose it when making you army list? Imho, it wouldn't make much sense at this point since you can't pick additional Traits just before the beginning of a game (unless I'm missing something). Now, about that sample Faction; I looked at every traits they took, to check if it allowed for an extra Region, but I haven't found anything. It could be a mistake during its creation...
I guess we should just wait for an answer from the Creator!
