• Holy Human Empire

The Holy Human Empire is an absolute monarchy and colonial empire occupying the entire Centaropolas region in central Pandortia, and can be seen as the mechanized civilization of the continent. Nobles have estates but no administrative power, serving as honorary positions after private armies were abolished. Instead, there are new nobles who grew powerful by occupying specific government posts, wealthy Bourgeois centered on commerce and industry, and Gentry who are large landowners. The nation uses rifles, breech-loading cannons, manual Gatling guns, and mortars. As an industrial revolution centered on commerce and industry has already progressed, factories are established, production is overwhelming, and railways are laid. Simultaneously, it dominates the continent's economy by utilizing the advantages of livestock and farming in the plains. Although it is a colonial empire, it does not discriminate against colonies; rather, it grants them autonomy, establishes autonomous councils, and gives them authority nearly equal to the mainland, effectively binding the colonies and mainland into a single federation. Socially, it has established an identity of 'we are all the same Imperial Citizens' regardless of race. Currently, the Empire is flourishing and solid.

• Great Elf Tribes

A great tribe formed by the union of elf tribes in the dense forests of Elfrant, who were wary and fearful of foreign powers and sought to protect their autonomy, the forests of Elfrant, and the spirits. While the intellectual capacity of the elves is not low, their unique wariness has led to backward technology. However, since the elves themselves are proficient in mana, their military strength is by no means weak. The soldiers of the Great Elf Tribes all handle mana, allowing them to perform melee and ranged attacks regardless of the weapon. Because there are no fixed regulations or standards, they are essentially a motley crew using various weapons, but the problem is that this motley crew handles mana skillfully.

• Nosland Duchy Union

A federal state established by the union of duchies located in Nosland. Beastmen and dwarves are the main races forming the union. Beastmen were originally indigenous there, while dwarves were pioneers who came after discovering underground resources. These races, who used to repeatedly guard against and fight each other, realized that endless killing only led to exhaustion. Furthermore, they were pressured by an isolated situation where the Great Elf Tribes were wary of them, magical beasts and monsters were coming up from Danzglance, and a hegemonic power existed below. Consequently, they signed a truce and peace treaty, styled themselves as Dukes, and established their own Duchies. This was followed by an alliance of duchies for their safety, which developed into a Union, eventually giving birth to the Nosland Duchy Union. The leader of the union is the Union Duke, who is elected and appointed by a council of Dukes. However, while the Union Duke's authority is stronger than other Dukes, they can still be dismissed by the Dukes or, in extreme cases, executed.

• Osernia Sultanate

An Islamic state located in Oarsis. A relatively new nation, it developed with cities built around oases containing purifying stones. It is characterized by powerful Mamluk cavalry led by the Sultan. Since trade routes with other continents exist, the nation gained wealth through intermediary trade and the sale of slaves rather than exports. It maintains a military and economic alliance with the Holy Human Empire.

• Adventurer League

Most adventurers are wanderers. People in urgent need of money, people with no place to return to, or those who simply find being an adventurer suits their nature, take on requests and receive payment upon completion. However, the Adventurer League is focused solely on clearing the phenomenon known as Dungeons that occurs in Danzglance. Dungeons are a phenomenon appearing only in Danzglance, primarily taking the form of portals or caves, containing magical beasts and monsters, including top-tier creatures like dragons or griffins.
