Nohr (pronounced /⁠nɔɹ⁠/[key][1]; Japanese:暗夜王国Kingdom of Anya) is a powerful "glory-seeking" kingdom present inFire Emblem Fates. It is ruled byGaron. This kingdom has many qualities that are opposite to its counterpart,Hoshido. Hoshido is a peace loving kingdom, while Nohr thirsts for glory. Nohr also looks aesthetically different from Hoshido, Nohr's architecture resembles a European influence, instead of Hoshido's Japanese influence. Their color preferences also seem to be at odds, Hoshido generally features red and white colors, while Nohr has blue and black as their corresponding colors.

All members of the Nohrian royal family possess the power ofDragon Vein, the ability to alter the environment around them.

According toCamilla, there is also a mansion within the woods, known to be "more terrifying" than the haunted mountain in theBoo CampDLC. The woods also contain marsh puddles frequently around the forest, causing harm towards people not raised in Nohr.

InBirthright, Corrin's army head from theIce Tribe village to the capital of Nohr -Windmire - with the quickest route being the Woods of the Forlorn.
