Location from Fire Emblem by Intelligent Systems / Nintendo
Fódlan's oldest and largest nation — a southern empire of wealth, tradition, and a hereditary aristocracy that Edelgard intends to burn down and rebuild.
The Adrestian Empire is Fódlan's superpower — the largest territory, the strongest military, and the oldest continuous government. It's also the Crest system's most entrenched supporter, with noble families whose power derives directly from their bloodlines. Edelgard's revolution is an attack on the Empire's own foundations, which makes her simultaneously its Emperor and its greatest threat. The Empire's relationship with Those Who Slither in the Dark is Fódlan's worst-kept secret — Thales operates through the Empire's court disguised as Arundel, and the alliance of convenience gives both sides tools they shouldn't have.
Temperate and prosperous with grand cities, fertile farmland, and architecture that reflects centuries of accumulated wealth. The capital Enbarr is a city of wide boulevards, ornate government buildings, and the Imperial Palace. The Empire's aesthetic is red and black — military precision overlaid with aristocratic grandeur.
