Galder

"One thing could always be said about Galder Harbor, the mainland port nearest Talys: it never had much in the way of riches, but neither did it have much trouble. All that changed when a pirate crew fell upon the town and made it their hideout. Here, in Galder, history records Marth's first steps toward freeing his homeland."

- Shadow Dragon Chapter 2, The Pirates of Galder: Opening Narration

Galder Harbour (called Garda on the Mystery of the Emblem map, and Garuga or Garuda in the anime) was a port town on the east of the Lefcandith peninsula of the Archanean continent, which served as the nearest mainland port to the island kingdom of Talys.

History
Galder had historically been a poor but peaceful town, until the War of Shadows, when the Galder Pirates took over the town to use as their base of operations.

After the pirates attacked Talys, Marth and his troops counter-attacked and liberated the town, despite reinforcements from Grust arriving to support the pirates against Marth.
