Location from Genshin Impact by HoYoverse
The Nation of Love — ironically a frozen militaristic empire ruled by the Cryo Archon, homeland of the Fatui who scheme to collect all seven Gnoses from the other Archons.
Snezhnaya is the northernmost nation of Teyvat, a land of ice and iron where the Cryo Archon — the Tsaritsa — has weaponized her grief into a campaign against Celestia itself. The Fatui serve as her instrument: part diplomatic corps, part military force, part intelligence network, with eleven Harbingers commanding operations across every nation. Their mission to collect all seven Gnoses has brought them into conflict with every Archon. The common people of Snezhnaya endure harsh conditions with stoic resilience, many unaware of the true scope of their nation's ambitions. Despite the Tsaritsa's cold exterior, those who know her past speak of a goddess who once embodied genuine love before the cataclysm of Khaenri'ah shattered her faith in the divine order.
An endless expanse of frozen tundra and snow-blanketed cities with onion-domed cathedrals and iron fortresses. Bitter winds howl through streets lit by cold blue Cryo lanterns. Military encampments and weapons factories operate day and night, belching steam into the grey skies. The Zapolyarny Palace looms at the nation's heart, a monument to imperial power sheathed in ice.
