Jugdral
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jugdral (ユグドラル Yugudoraru) is the fictional continent that Nintendo and Intelligent Systems' Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 takes place. It derives from the Norse mythological name Yggdrasil. It is located southeast of Akaneia, where Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Tsurugi and Fire Emblem: Monshou no Nazo take place. It is composed of eight kingdoms: the Kingdom of Grandbell, the Kingdom of Verdane, Miletos District, the Manster District, the Kingdom of Thracia, the Lords' Dominion of Agustria, the Kingdom of Silesia, Yied Desert, and the Kingdom of Isaac.

[edit] Verdane
Verdane is the southwesternmost country in Jugdral. It is Jugdral's land of forests and wildlife. It has absolutely no ties with Grandbell. It is ruled by kings without Holy Crusader heritage. Before Gran 757, when Sandima took over, it was ruled by King Bator. Jamka, a recruitable archer character in Sigurd's tale, is from Verdane. Edin is taken by Gandolf to Marpha Castle, Verdane, in the Prologue. Princess Ayra of Isaac fled with her nephew Shanan to Verdane to escape the Isaacian-Grandbellian war. She then had no choice but to work as a mercenary for Genoa Castle. Chapter 1 takes place here.

[edit] Miletos
Miletos is the southernmost country of Jugdral. It is the country where trade routes to Jugdral meet. Chapter 11 takes place here. Chalphy dukedom of Grandbell is located near Miletos.
[edit] Manster
Occupying the northern half of the Thracian Peninsula, the Manster District is a confederation of several small holdings to withstand Thracia's invasions. It was founded by holy crusader Noba, the younger sister of Dain. Traditionally, most of the Manster District's military power has come from Lenster's lance knight brigade (Lanzenritter), though the other holdings have separate militaries. The Manster District consists of Melgen, Lenster, Alster, Conote, and Manster. At the onset of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War the king of Lenster is Prince Cuan's father King Calf.

[edit] Thracia
Thracia is a mountainous nation occupying the southern half of the Thracian Peninsula, south of the Manster District. It was founded by holy crusader Dain, the older brother of Noba. Because of the region's rocky soil and hilly terrain, food is scarce and the people are often hungry. However, Thracia is the nation that ridable-sized dragons are native to. Thracian knights who ride the dragons are famous as mercenaries throughout Jugdral, and contribute substantially to the country's income. Thracians have tried many times over Jugdral's history to conquer the fertile Manster District in order to provide food for their families, but all of the major assaults have been repelled by Lenster's lance knight brigade, colloquially known as the "Wall of Manster", especially by the Thracians. At the onset of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War Trabant is king of Thracia.
Characters from Thracia: Trabant, Arion, Hannibal, Dean, Eda, Disler.
[edit] Agustria
Agustria is the home of Eltshan's family. Crusader Hezul helped found Agustria. Agustria is located in the west side of Jugdral and north of Verdane. It is the largest country in Jugdral.

Characters from Silesia: Levin, Fury, Sety, Fee, Rahna, Karin, Deet'var, Pamela, Misha.
[edit] Yied Desert
Yied Desert is the land of outcasts in Jugdral. It is also the center of the Loput sect. The heat in Yied Desert is dangerous, and the Dark Mages have unusual techniques to distract everyone trying to cross the desert. After the Isaacian-Grandbellian war, Isaac's Balmunk was taken to Yied Shrine. During Chapter 5, Cuan and Ethlin are killed by Trabant when marching across Yied Desert. Part of Chapter 5 and most of Chapter 7 take place here. During Chapter 7, Patty sneaks into Yied Shrine, snatches the Balmunk, and gives it to Shanan.
Characters from Yied Desert: Manfroy, Ctuzof, Sandima, Morigan
[edit] Isaac
The Kingdom of Isaac is the northeasternmost country in Jugdral and was founded by Odo in Gran 648. It is the home of Ayra, Shanan, Lakche, and Skasaher. Grandbell invades Isaac around the beginning of Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu. Isaac is known for being the land of Swordmasters. In Isaac, women are treated differently from other countries in Jugdral. Isaac is second to Manster in fertility, having many flowers and bushes and some animals. It has five castles: Isaac, Sophara, Tilnagogue, Ganeishire, and Rivough. At the onset of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, Mariccle is the king of Isaac. Mariccle dies at the time of Chapter 2 of the game. In the meantime of Chapter 5, after the Isaacian-Grandbellian war, Isaac is taken over by Dozel nobility. Isaac is the only country in Jugdral that did not participate in child hunts in the days of Alvis's Grandbellian Empire. Chapter 6 takes place here. Celice was raised here. According to Celice, the Isaacians suffered under Dozel nobility rule.
