The '''Holy Kingdom of Iris''' (イーリス, ''Iresu'') is a kingdom in the southeast part of an unknown continent set to be featured in the upcoming {{FE13}}. [[Chrom]], ''Awakening's'' main protagonist, hails from Iris, along with his younger sister [[Liz]], being the prince and princess, respectively. The current ruler, [[Emmeryn]], is the elder sister of Chrom and Liz. Iris's sworn enemy, the [[Gimle Cult]], is located to the west in the nation of [[Perezia]].

'''Ylisse''' (pronounced {{IPA|ɪˈlis}}<ref>Sumia in ''Fire Emblem Awakening''</ref>; Japanese: {{hl|イーリス|Īrisu}} ''Iris'') is a kingdom located in the south-east of the [[Archanea (continent)|continent of the same name]]. It borders the [[Plegia|Theocracy of Plegia]] to the west, and [[Ferox|Regna Ferox]] to the north. In the distant past, the territory now comprising Ylisse was part of the Holy Kingdom of [[Archanea (country)|Archanea]], and the island kingdom of [[Talys]]. Ylisse is ruled by a monarch, known as the ''Exalt''; at the beginning of the events of {{FE13}}, [[Emmeryn]] is the Exalt.
 
Prior to the events of ''Awakening'', the previous Exalt, [[Chrom]]'s father, waged a terrible war on Plegia, with the intent of wiping out the [[Grimleal]], a cult seeking to resurrect the Fell Dragon [[Grima]]. The war ended with his death, and ever since then, his daughter Emmeryn had sought to repair relations between her nation and Plegia. Unfortunately, [[Gangrel]], the king of Plegia, sought only to conquer Ylisse, a desire that led both him and Emmeryn to their downfalls.

== Trivia ==
* [[Nino]]'s mother shares her name with the Japanese name of Ylisse, ''Iris''.<ref>{{cite|Yeah. And their names are printed there, see? My father's name is Juge, and my mother's name is Iris.|[[Nino]], to [[Canas]] in a [[support conversation]]|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>
* The term "Halidom" is a reference to [[Archanea (continent)|Archanea]], though this was muddled in the localization. The Japanese term for "Halidom" is "Holy Kingdom" ({{hl|聖王国|Sei ōkoku}}), the same as the Holy Kingdom of Archanea, the nation Ylisse is a successor to.
**Similarly, Exalt is "Holy King" ({{hl|聖王|Sei-ō}}) in Japanese, and is not related at all to Exalted Falchion, which is "divine sword Falchion" ({{hl|神剣ファルシオン|Shinken farushion}}) in Japanese, a term used in dialogue of the Archanea games that was translated as "the divine blade Falchion" in ''Shadow Dragon''.
***Holy King also referred to [[Seliph]] at the end of ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', and [[Alm]] at the end of ''Gaiden'' and its remake (translated as "Exalted King" for Alm's DLC Einherjar card in ''Awakening'', and "Saint-King" in ''Shadows of Valentia'').
