The Legadonia Entente Alliance is one of the Empire's enemy nations, located over the northern border with the area of Norden being contested between the Entente Alliance and the Empire.

A long time before the events of Youjo Senki occur, the Empire and the Entente Alliance had an unofficial dispute over the drawing of the national border, and nowadays after garrisons from both nations misfired accidentally and firefights broke out because of some misunderstanding, alerting people to the tense situation here. June, 1923, Norden Incident occurred, which the Entente Alliance should take the blame for.

In order to prevent the birth of hegemonic nation in the continent, it helps the belligerents fighting against the Empire to achieve a balance in power.

Principality of Dacia ダキア大公国

Main article: Principality of Dacia

This country's history status was inspired by the Kingdom of Romania in World War I. For the sake of taxing the Empire's internal mobilization strategy, it declared war on the Empire. As such, a third front was opened with hope they could draw Imperial units away from the Rhine battlefront, and then consequently force the Empire to hold peace talks. However, this proved deeply wrong, since Dakia had not developed yet any proper mage academy, and did not had any effective counter-air defence strategy, using infantry tactics typical of the previous century. Being useless against World War military tactics, these finally led to the destruction of the Invasion force three full-armed division (600,000 men) and of its military–industrial complex inside its capital.

Kingdom of Ildoa イルドア王国

Main article: Kingdom of Ildoa

Its former imperial government was the main ally of the Republic against the Empire, but the nation changed side after a revolution, which led to the birth of the new communist government and forced Republic to mainly rely on their alliance with Legadonia Entente Alliance. The new government signed a nonaggression pact and other treaties with the Empire and kept its neutrality in the beginning of this war.
