Kingdom of Nabradia

The Kingdom of Nabradia, also known as Nabradia, was one of the main political powers in Final Fantasy XII. A small kingdom on the north of Dalmasca, it was invaded and taken over by Archadia forces two years prior to the game's main events.

History
A small city-state neighboring Dalmasca and Archadia, Nabradia was the only other Kingdom to receive one of the Dynast King's relics, the Midlight Shard. Despite this great treasure, the nation was largely self-reliant with few ambitions beyond its own borders.

The generations preceding Final Fantasy XII saw a rapid and unchecked expansion in the size and strength of the Archadian Empire. Fearful that the eyes of the ruthless House Solidor would next look westwards, Nabradia was forced to take steps to ensure its security. In a series of political moves, an alliance was signed with Rozarria and the king's son, Lord Rasler, was married to Princess Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca of Dalmasca. Though intended to be a marriage of convenience, the couple cared deeply for each other (a fact the Occuria later attempted to use to their advantage).

Within weeks of the wedding, an internal conflict led to civil war, and imperial forces invaded Nabradia. Under orders from Emperor Gramis, Judge Zecht stole the Midlight Shard and unleashed its power upon the capital of the City of Nabudis, wiping out the city and its inhabitants. Ashamed by his actions, the Archadian Judge fled to Balfonheim while the Archadian army continued its march at the Dalmascan border.

Any hope for the nation's restoration ended when Rasler was killed during the siege of the Nalbina Fortress, ending Nabradia's royal line. Now, Nabradia is part of the Archadian Empire, and its capital is nothing more than a ruin full of monsters.
