The continent of Valm
Valm (ヴァルム Varumu, Warm in the Japanese version) is a continent located west of Ylisse in Fire Emblem Awakening. It is the future version of Valentia, renamed after Alm, the first king of the united empire.
Profile
Founded by the unification of the Rigel and Zofia following the events of Fire Emblem Gaiden/Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, and eventually renamed after its first king by one his sucessors, the Valmese Empire eventually saw rise to conflict and split into several nations, with Valm itself comprising of a miniscule nation. In recent years, Walhart united the empire once again through brutal conquest so that he could prevent the potential resurrection of Grima, and from there sought to invade the Ylisse continent to prevent the fulfillment of Plegia's ambitions. However, Walhart fell under the manipulation of Excellus, who was secretly a member of the Grimleal.
Unlike Valentia, which seemed to have no Wyverns, Valm appears to have a population of Wyverns in Chon'sin and Rosanne.
Its military is also one of the strongest overseas, with cavalry taking the bulk of it. Capable of annihilating Feroxi soldiers with only a vanguard, their disadvantage at sea is critical when Ylissean forces manage to defeat an entire fleet comprised of them.
Countries
Chon'sin
Chon'sin was a small nation in Valm ruled by a dynast, Yen'fay, prior to being conquered. The Chon'sinese army was then wholly integrated into the larger Valmese Imperial Army, with Yen'fay as the head of his "division".
Rosanne
Rosanne was a small dukedom in Valm headed by House Virion. Virion's dialogue at the start of Chapter 12 implies it was among the first to fall to Walhart and fell quickly.
Valm
Valm was a very small country (pitifully small, according to Virion) that was remembered only because the continent shared the name. Its ruler became Walhart, the Conqueror, who then unified the continent for the purpose of destroying Grima. Its citizens worship the Divine Dragons and revere Tiki as "The Voice of the Divine Dragon".
