Nations

When starting a game, you are able to choose between three home nation.

San d’Oria:

This kingdom of proud Elvaan warriors is situated to the north of the Quon continent and was built on the ashes of a brutal civil war. It has been ruled by a succession of kings from the d’Oraguille royal family for a span of more than five hundred years.

(Note: In San d’Oria and its outdoor locations, the top of the screen represents South.)

Windurst:

Tribes of Tarutaru from the sweeping grasslands and neighboring islands of southern Mindartia united to form this league of states.

It is governed by a council of representatives from the five ministries of magic, legacies of the five founding tribes. Their decisions are based on the prophecies of the mystic Star Sybil who resides in the fabled Heavens Tower.

Bastok:

In the southern reaches of Quon lies the Republic of Bastok, a nation founded by the technologically gifted Humes.

The president, elected from among the Hume population every few years, takes an active role in leading the government.

Surrounding the city of Bastok is the inhospitable Gustaberg region, an unforgiving land of sparse vegetation.

Mog Houses

Mog Houses are your residence in the world of Vana’diel. Use the bed to save your game, or speak to the Moogle to change your current job.
