The North Ambria State (ノーザンブリア
It is known as the least developed country in Zemuria. The combination of cold and poverty make the state virtually inhospitable. For the sake of surviving, many of its citizens have moved abroad.
Like Leman and Ored, Arteria diplomatically recognizes North Ambria as a Zemurian state.
After the Erebonian Civil War though, it later becomes annexed into Erebonia.
History
North Ambrian Disaster
Also see Salt Pale
The North Ambrian Disaster is a large-scale incident that lay ruin to the Principality of North Ambria and affected the economies of the western half of Zemuria.
In S.1178, an unknown object referred to as the Salt Pale suddenly appeared in the capital City of Haliask and turned everything in the vicinity of the capital into salt. Its ruler, Prince Balmunt, fled the country and amidst the destruction and chaos, the government was overthrown.
In the following year, a parliament was elected and North Ambria was acknowledged as a state by the Septian Church. Prior to the incident, however, North Ambria had already been suffering under a financial crisis and the harsh conditions of its cold climate. Conditions hardly improved after the incident; to make a living, many citizens have joined the Northern Jaegers jaeger corps, which thrived on foreign funds.
Northern War
In S.1206, Erebonia launches an invasion on North Ambria in a attempt to annex the fallen nation into its country. North Ambria puts up a valiant struggle, but ends up falling to the Empire due to the poor state of their country, Erebonia's vast advanced technologies (The Soldats) and the participation of the Divine Knight, Valimar and his Awakener, Rean Schwarzer the hero of the Erebonian Civil War. It is then annexed into Erebonia.
Geography
North Ambria is a country located to the north of Erebonia. It is currently a frozen wasteland full of rough terrain, but it used to be a beautiful country before the Salt Pale Incident.It has a harsh environment and it is difficult to grow anything there because of the damage sustained from the salinification.

Politics
The Principality of North Ambria was formally a monarchy until its last ruler Prince Balmunt lost all credibility after he fled the country when the Salt Pale Incident occurred in S.1178. In the aftermath of the incident Prince Balmunt returned and attempted to rebuild the government but an outraged populace led to an armed uprising within the following year. Eventually elections would be held and the country would transition into a democratic government up until Erebonia's annexation of the State.
Military
Following the overthrow of Prince Balmunt the former principalitiy's of armed forces were reformed into vigilante corps. Yet the devastation of the Salt Pale and ensuing poverty led the majority of the corps to prioritize acquiring foreign capital in order to support the country and eventually lead to their establishment as the Northern Jaegers.
