Fire Emblem Wiki

Bern (referred to as Biran in PAL region versions) is a nation featured in Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi and Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken. It is ruled by King Desmond in the latter and his son, King Zephiel, in the former. After the Scouring, two of the Eight Heroes settled in the southeast of Elibe, where Hartmut the Hero became Bern's Founder and King, and Bramimond the Enigma retired there and maintained the seals on the Divine Weapons.

The Bern militia is known as the most powerful military force on the continent of Elibe. Wyverns are native to this country and as a result, the Bern army rears these mighty beasts as partners for their Wyvern Riders. They have three Dragon Generals which correspond to Etruria's three Generals.

Role in Rekka no Ken

After almost being killed by Nergal, Eliwood and his group travel to the Nabata Desert to search for Athos. They are told by him to travel to Bern and find the Shrine of Seals, this is the only way to stand a chance of defeating Nergal. To get a map to the shrine of seals Eliwood is first sent to find the Fire Emblem, which is necessary for Zephiel to be crowned later on. They later save Zephiel's life from an assassination attempt by the Black Fang and are given the map. They then go to the Shrine of Seals and get Bramimond to remove the seals off the Legendary weapons, which will be necessary to defeat Nergal.

Role in Fūin no Tsurugi

Led by King Zephiel, Bern invades Ilia and Sacae and engages war with Lycia. However, before they could conquer Lycia as a whole, Etruria's army steps in and stops them. Later, during an Etrurian civil war, Bern supported the rebels who fight against the loyalists in an effort to gain control of Etruria, only to be quelled. After that, both Ilia and Sacae are liberated from military occupation.

To try and end it all, Bern was invaded by the Etrurian army under Roy's command. The battle in the royal castle ended with King Zephiel's death.
