Following two years of exile in Talys, the last surviving nation, Cornelius's son [[Marth]] emerged with the remnants of the Altean army and soon became the leader of a successful liberation army opposing Dolhr, with the full support of both Nyna and Prince [[Hardin]] of Aurelis. Marth's army, the united Archanean League, won successive victories over Dolhr and its allies in the Aurelis, the Holy Kingdom, Gra, Altea, Dolhr and Macedon, and with the assistance of Gotoh, Marth's army found two of the Fire Emblem's gemstones and used them to forge [[Starlight]], enabling them to pierce Gharnef's dark protection and defeat him to reclaim Falchion. In the war's closing days, Marth led the march on Dolhr Keep and slew Medeus, putting an end to the war.

Although the War of Shadows had ended, the Seven Realms spent the next three years struggling to heal from the scars Medeus's rule left behind. At first, the marriage of Hardin and Nyna, and Hardin's new Archanean Empire, greatly accelerated the restoration process, but soon Hardin fell victim to Gharnef's machinations and was twisted into a malevolent ruler, waging holy war on the rest of Archanea. Having tricked Marth into leaving Altea to perform a mission for him, his army conquered Altea and pursued Marth, but were unable to catch him as he embarked on a long quest north for Gotoh: to gather the five gemstones and re-assemble the Fire Emblem back into the Binding Shield. On his return, he took back Altea and led a final assault on the Archanean capital, defeating Hardin, claiming [[Darksphere|the last gemstone]] and restoring the Shield, only to learn that while he had been distracted by Hardin, Gharnef had abducted Empress Nyna and three other priestesses for the purpose of resurrecting Medeus. On Gotoh's counsel, he traveled to the [[Dragon's Table]] in Dolhr, defeated Gharnef to reclaim the stolen Falchion, and slew Medeus a second time.

The sheer brutality of this second war, the [[War of Heroes]], had taken a considerable toll on its survivors. Following her rescue, Nyna ceded rule of the Holy Kingdom to Marth before vanishing, and all of the other surviving monarchs followed suit, entrusting the future of their lands to Marth as a result of his valorous leadership in the war. As a result, Marth unified the Seven Realms into the United Kingdom of Archanea, and ruled as its first king.

The first and greatest of the Seven Realms of humanity, founded by [[Adrah]]. Using the [[Fire Emblem (Archanean item)|Fire Emblem]] as its emblem of divine right, despite repeatedly falling to [[Medeus]]'s onslaughts, the Holy Kingdom always played an integral role in at least assisting in setting the world to rights. Following the [[War of Heroes]], its last ruler [[Nyna]] ceded it to [[Marth]], turning it into the core of the new United Kingdom of Archanea.
