Grawen Kingdom

"Teach a man how to live, not how to fish."​

Currently under the reign of King Orvil.
Inhabitants are called Grawenians.​

The Grawen Kingdom is located on the far northwestern sections of the world. There, the terrain is mostly coarse, with very little amount of areas suitable for civilizations. In return for those, the kingdom is given the advantage of having mountain ranges as walls from unwanted intruders.

It is common practice for Grawenians to fight for sport, since the kingdom's pride is in showing utmost superior physical prowess. Mainly, that is due to them adapting to their harsh environment, allowing the inhabitants to be more physically fit and gain more endurance, compared to the rest of the world.

The Grawen Kingdom's military is mostly comprised of infantry, with very few mounted soldiers. Still, they prove to be a formidable force with the "do or die" mentality that the soldiers develop in their time of service.

Currently, the Grawen Kingdom holds 2 pieces of the "Fire Emblem".

Vanate Empire

"Behold the grandeur of the skies."​

Currently under the reign of Emperor Veldar.
Inhabitants are called Vanateans.​

The Vanate Empire is located on the northeastern part of the world, with most of the lands under its reign. Vanate's landscape is vast, and mostly comprised of plains and small hills, with a fair share of a few mountains and forestry. Due to its massive and ever-expanding size, the economy of the nation is booming. Various settlements are continuously being placed all around the Empire's reach, and several renowned establishments have made Vanate their place to stay. Unlike Grawen, the Empire has no protective landscape, but with the abundance of pegasi and wyverns in the vicinity, the nation fears no one due to their aerial superiority.

A city of the Empire, named Thralfield, is considered to be a hub for animal enthusiasts. There, people from all around the world gather to have their precious mounts be checked upon by medical specialists, purchase specific items, and even to obtain a well-grown mount. Security, though seemingly unnoticeable, is extremely strict around the city.

The Vanate Empire's army, otherwise known as the Crimson Legion, is mostly comprised of soldiers and their trusty flying mounts. The sheer number of this military force is enough to intimidate even the bravest, let alone the might of their aerial strikes. Due to the large number, the army is divided into a number of troops and squads which act on different missions.

Currently, the Vanate Empire holds 1 piece of the "Fire Emblem".

Auranian Theocracy

"The Holy Light shall free us all."​

Currently under the reign of High Priestess Lutia and Archbishop Deyron.
Inhabitants are called Auranites.​

The Auranian Theocracy is located on the southern hemisphere of the world, having an entire continent all to the nation. However, due to their peaceful demeanor, their original territory has been reduced by more ambitious nations such as Grawen and Vanate. Still, they hold a fair amount of land, covered in precious resources with varied forms of nature and wildlife unlike Grawen's mountainous regions and Vanate's plains. The only reason why the nation remains untouched is due to its religious influence.

Every temple out in the world that worships the Light Spirit, is managed by the Auranian Theocracy. Every priest or priestess sent out there to preach the teachings about the Light Spirit is from the Theocracy. This nation is the center of religion - it holds the sacred relics of this divine worship, the priests and priestesses are trained in here, and a whole lot more. Basically, anything related to the religion of the Light Spirit, the Auranian Theocracy has something to do with it.

Although it may seem strange, the Auranian Theocracy has its own military for its own protection. However, when compared to the two other nations, their military is not really much of a military. Granted, there are a few skilled individuals under their rule, but the nation's mannerisms pretty much limits the potential of this nation, aside from the evident magical prowess of the folk.

Currently, the Auranian Theocracy holds 0 pieces of the "Fire Emblem".

The Church of Light

This religion worships the "Light Spirit", a mysterious omnipresent being that is said to guide the lives of every living being into their fullest. Since the War of the Emblem, this religion has stormed all over the world, and is continuing to convert non-believers into worshipers. The religion expands continuously as time passes, and so does the conviction of the believers.

Hundreds of temples are scattered around the world, ignoring the borders of all the nations, spreading the teachings that encourage people to not lose hope, and prefer harmony over strife.
