A region of Southeastern Amestris on the border of the Eastern Desert. Presumably once its own nation, owing to the vastly different cultural practices of Ishval's people and the general populace of greater Amestris as a whole, Ishval was likely absorbed as a part of Amestris' expansion policies. However, the region remains a point of contention and was ultimately razed as a result of the Ishval Civil War.

Existing in Amestris' relatively barren frontier and just shy of the Great Desert separating the western and eastern nations of the continent, Ishval has been described as a rather harsh land made of little more than rocks and sand; it has no significant natural resources and very little farmable land.

The Great Desert is an enormous desert that separated Ishval from Xing. In the middle of the desert lies the ruins of the city of Xerxes, which as legend has it vanished in a single night when the people of the city tried to gain the philosopher's stone. There used to be a rail line from Ishval across the desert to Xing but the sands covered it up and rendered it unusable.

Xing is a large empire far to the east of Amestris, across the Great Desert and on the opposite side of the ruins of Xerxes. In reality, the nation of Xing is made up of fifty hereditary clans all under the rule of a single Emperor, who cements his rule by taking the daughter of each clan's chief to be his concubine and bear him an heir.

Creta is a nation that borders Amestris to the west. Along with Aerugo, Creta continually engages Amestris in border disputes and a great deal of blood has been shed by both sides in their long history as military enemies.

The large and mostly unknown country due north of Amestris. There have been many conflicts between Amestris and Drachma in the past.
