Ambria, officially the Principality of Ambria, is a nation located on the south-eastern archipelago, being surrounded by the ocean and sharing a sole maritime border with the Federal Republic of Three Dimensions. Its metropolitan area extends from the Saffron Isles of the Sesenan archipelago to the southern island of van Weyden's land. Ambria is consisted of 10 integral regions and four territories, with its capital in Montrosa, the country's main cultural hub; other major urban centres include Marburg, Esperanza, Port de Flors, Jardinaut and Staalport.
Evidence suggests that the islands that comprise modern Ambria were settled by different tribes across a wide time period, with earliest suggestions of settlement around Montrosa reaching all the way to the early bronze age. This has led to a unique diversity across the Ambrian islands, with many ethnic groups retaining their local culture and traditions derived from different tribal origins. In the age of antiquity, Ambria became the heartland of the Larun Empire, whose early innovations in seafaring would both allow it to conquer numerous islands, as well as leave Ambria a strong maritime legacy the country cherishes to this day. In the mid-7th century, the Larun Empire collapsed, leaving behind a series of city states and warlords competing for land and influence. The main island of Ambria would later be unified under the banner of the Caylus dynasty, forming the first Ambrian monarchy, a strong but highly decentralised feudal Kingdom. The medieval Ambrian Kingdom undertook a centuries long struggle for centralisation, marred by dynastic infighting and power plays of the noblility. In the 17th century, the renaissance culture firmly took root in the country, as well as the beginnings of an Ambrian colonial empire. The revolution of flowers in 1793 led to the abolishment of the monarchy and the declaration of the rights of the of the Ambrian, which is a document that modern Ambrian ideals and law still draw inspiration from.

The 19th century was a period of notable stability and prosperity, with the nation's rapid industrialisation and breakthroughs in naval technology vastly enriching the nation, leading to a period of cultural and scientific flourishing, knows as the Bella Epoqua.
Ambria is to this day a world pillar of culture and philosophy. It holds one of the largest number of CRESCO world heritage sites and is a leading tourist destination, partly due to its architectual beauty and geographical diversity. Ambria is a founding member of OWED and a member of the Council of Rulers.
