Edo

The Kingdom of Edo is a location mentioned in the Fear & Hunger series. It is located on the east part of the world.

Lore
Edo is briefly mentioned in the games as an island nation that was able to thwart the Eastern Sanctuaries' plans of expansion during the eighth century, remaining independent even after multiple campaigns. Edo's warring arts caught the attention of Nas'hrah, Sultan of the Eastern Sanctuaries, who then appointed high-status war prisoners from Edo as central figures in a new formed country to create a warrior class as close as possible to Edo's ways. Hundreds of years later, said warrior class, the Jizamurai, was then born in the Yansa Aryuaban, as a result of the cultures of Edo and the Eastern Sanctuaries melted together.

From the little information that can be gathered from the New Gods in Fear & Hunger, the once-human form of the Assassin Spectre was said to have hailed from the Far East, even farther than the Eastern Sanctuaries: it is possible that this place is Edo. Tanaka, one of the contestants from the Termina Festival that takes place during Fear & Hunger 2: Termina, probably hails from this place as well.

During the events of the second game, which takes place in 1942, it is said that Edo is still at war with the Eastern Union.

Trivia

 * Based on the name of Edo and the character's name that hails from the place, the Kingdom is likely based on Japan.
