Hoshido (白夜王国 Byakuya Okoku lit. Byakuya Kingdom in the Japanese version) is a peaceful nation in Fire Emblem: Fates.
Profile
Hoshido is a peaceful nation which is styled to resemble feudal Japan, both in its people and its culture. The kingdom was founded by humans loyal to the Light Dragon, who gave them land and its blood so they can harness the Dragon's Vein.
Some time before the start of Fates, Mikoto arrived at Hoshido after escaping Touma with her young child, the Avatar. Mikoto met the king of Hoshido, Sumeragi, and was married to him. At the time Sumeragi already had four children from his first wife; Ryoma, Hinoka, Takumi, and Sakura. During a trip to Nohr with his new step-child, Sumeragi was killed by Nohrian soldiers and the Avatar was kidnapped. Without a king, Mikoto became the new Queen of Hoshido. Some time after, Hoshido kidnapped the adopted princess of Nohr, Azura.

Byakuya literally means white night in Japanese.
Hoshido is possibly a combination of Hoshi meaning star or Shiro meaning white in Japanese and bushido, the samurai code of chivalry, to match the Japan theme of the country.
