The Sterling Tide (Anglish for "Glorious Era") is the name given to the fifty-year period of Ambrosian (and more broadly, Aldinean) history between the end of the Great War of the North in 1867 to the outbreak of the Continental War in 1917. Part of the broader romantic era, it was characterized by an optimistic sentiment of national revival and rapid economic growth, as well as flourishing growth in the arts and sciences. Internationally, it was also characterized by a period of relative peace known as the Concert of Aldinea, largely reflecting the geopolitical system set up by the Congress of Dalganburgh.

Certain modern historians largely view the Sterling Tide as a fiction created after the horrors of the Continental War; these critics point to the inflated levels of social inequality in Ambrose and the flawed nature of the international balance of power, compromised both by the diplomatic and military preeminence of Ambrose and revanchist movements in Sjealand and Galideen.
