* Also, if people are revolting because of the revelation that the royal bloodline isn't Valkyrian after all, then some of them might want to put a true Valkyrur on the throne, and the only living person out there with a proven Valkyrian heritage is his wife. His family is a major political symbol in the war whether they want to be or not, so he needs to do ''something'' to help keep them safe.

[[WMG: ''VideoGame/{{Bastion}}'' takes place in the past of ''Valkyria Chronicles''.]]
The Caelondians are an offshoot of the Valkyrur (then called the Cael) that left their homeland before the discovery of ragnite. The Ura are the predecessors to the Darcsens, who, after the Bastion evacuates, discover large quantities of mysterious blue crystals with great healing properties in the depths of the ruined Tazel Terminals.

Decades/centuries pass and the Ura rebuild themselves, renaming themselves to Darcsens in the process, the Caelondian survivors become the (mostly) normal people that inhabit most of Europa and the Cael discover smaller quantities of a material that is termed ragnite either by them or the newly encountered Darcsens, discovering that several members of their race possessed mutations that allowed them to metabolize the miraculous substance. A side effect of this mutation is premature albinism.

The Cael eventually find out that an Ura were responsible for the utter destruction of one of their most prosperous colonies, and they [[CycleOfRevenge wage a bloody war of revenge that ruins both great nations]].

Think about it for a second, Squad 7 must be the ultimate military version of MarySue. It is an entire unit of attractive SuperSoldiers who can each kill tons of enemies without any hesitation and even turn the tide of a battle and succeed in missions that the regular army failed at. The Empire are portrayed as evil with few exception, just for the purpose of making the propaganda less obvious. Meanwhile, the story also tries to whitewash the war crimes committed by the Gallian government such as the use of ChildSoldiers by having the character of Aisha. The creators of the game even tries to clue us in on the true nature of the story by revealing at the end that the story was told from a book written by [[UnreliableNarrator a reporter who worked for the Gallian state radio]]. In reality, the war very violent and destructive which left most of Europa in ruins, and instead of having a happy ending, many of the veterans suffer from PSTD for the rest of their lives.

* Only slightly comfirmed: ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChroniclesIII'' reveals that the Nameless helped them out at times, but the stories aren't that far off from the truth.



* Yes, there are others who can use commands, enemy leaders and Avan in the sequel, but the enemy leaders don't use the GameBreaker ones, and for Avan these require far higher levels of training (and a lot more Command Points) to learn and use. Avan's bizarre JackOfAllTrades ability to be ''anything'' lets him use the commands.

commands, just not as well as proven commanders like Kurt and Welkin.

Any ancient writing of the Valkyria is either incredibly poetic/cryptic or else propoganda. Being able to use the power required specialized "awakening" (of which modern methods are a costly and inefficient attempt at) which were such an extremely guarded secret that a generation passed without anyone passing on the secret on how to awaken the power; and thus the knoweldge was lost, and the Valkyria used their remaining power to cover their butts.

**** The green pollen seems like a pretty obvious nod to Welkin's influence. It makes more sense for Alicia to be subconsciously compelled to use her powers, then freed from them through marriage as a nod to the Norse myth, because if that's ''not'' what happened, then Alicia spent most of the game being a huge moron.

*** ItGotWorse. After Dr. Foerster left Lanseal, and after Lavinia and Avan [[strike: destroy]] make the Ghost Tank stop moving, Dr. Foerster studied it and learned how to duplicate them. The Three-Star missions in VC2 are Dr. Foerster's mastering reviving Dirk, Baldren, and Audrey (this was occurring even during the main game; hence how you could keep killing them and they would get back up); and backing them up with Ghost Tanks for combat data.

There are only 2 mentions of places outside of Europa in the game 1: A fantasy of being able to conquer not just Europa, but the globe (And Asia, Africa and Australia would be outside of Europa but still in the globe) 2: Its Europa War 1/2, not World War 1/2. The Airplane doesn't exist in the universe either.

either. Shin Hyuga's bio (some country from the far east) and being based on Feudal Japan is written in a way implies VC!Japan isn't known or not important to the outside world, which could be done by Commodore Perry never existing.

[[WMG: The nail that causes VC's Earth to be the way it is is the lack of Christianity]]
The opening gives suffix to the year. I forget what it was, but I'm sure it didn't refer to Christ. Christmas doesn't exist, but something more along the lines of the pagan traditions it is based on does. The only mention of religion is the Valkyria.

[[WMG: Europa is only Europa because [[TranslationConvention no one is speaking English or French]]]]
Luxembourgish, Dutch and German (with some French, though not primary) are the languages spoken in the real world in what is Gallia in the VC universe, and the continent is Europa in all of them.

Population of Gallia

Added DiffLines:

** Are you sure the population is 800,000? One of the guidebooks I've got (the Japanese artbook, I think) gives the population as 4.3 million or 4.5 million or so. I had been wondering about the population because Avan's hometown of Mellvere is big enough to field a soccer team, which wouldn't be possible if the whole country had a population equal to one big city. Gallia being in the 4-5 million range puts it around the same as Norway and Finland.
