Ancient Eldia

Location from Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama

The Eldian Empire that ruled the world for 1,700 years using the power of the Nine Titans. Whether it was a golden age or a reign of terror depends on who survived to write the history.

Ancient Eldia is less a place than a wound the world has never healed from. For seventeen centuries, the Eldian Empire wielded the Nine Titans as weapons of conquest, expansion, and — according to Marleyan historians — ethnic cleansing and forced breeding. According to Eldian restorationists, it was a civilizational golden age of roads, medicine, and architecture. The truth, as Eren Kruger once said, is that no one remembers anymore. The Founding Titan could alter Eldian memories, which means the historical record is compromised at the genetic level. What is certain: the empire fractured in a civil war called the Great Titan War, the 145th King Fritz fled to Paradis with the Founding Titan and erected the walls, and Marley seized seven of the remaining Titans to build its own empire on Eldia's bones. History repeats. It uses different weapons each time.

Also known as: the Eldian Empire, Eldia, Old Eldia
