The Sterling Tide (Anglish for "Glorious Era") is the name given to the fifty-year period of Ambrosian (and more broadly, Nordanian) history between the end of the Great War of the North in 1867 to the outbreak of the Continental War. It was characterized by an optimistic sentiment of national revival and rapid economic growth. It was also characterized by the Concert of Nordania, a period of peace
Modern historians largely view the Sterling Tide as a fiction created after the horrors of the Continental War; the supposed balance of power in Nordania was compromised by the diplomatic and military preeminence of Ambrose.
