Oriense world map.
(Oriense, オリエンス?, lit. Oriensu) is the name of the setting of Final Fantasy Type-0. It is comprised of four nations that until recently had coexisted peacefully, each controlling a Crystal that grants them a unique power. However, the price that came from that power is memory loss: l'Cie chosen by the crystals lose most memory of who they were while those who remain human are forced to forget those who have died.
- Suzaku Fiefdom of Rubrum: Rubrum controls the Suzaku Crystal, which contains the power of Magic. It is the home of all the playable characters in Type-0, who reside in Rubrum's Magic Academy, Rubrum Peristylium Suzaku, as students. It is ruled by Khalia Chival VI.
- Milites Empire: Milites controls the Byakko Crystal, which contains the power of Weapons. After its ruler mysteriously disappeared, High Commander Cid Aulstyne took command and uses his nation's crystal to develop advanced military technology in an attempt to conquer the other three nations and gain control of their crystals.
- Lorican Alliance: Lorica controls the Genbu Crystal, which contains the power of the Shield with its inhabitants of larger size. Lorica was first nation to be attacked by Milites, mostly destroyed in the process.
- Kingdom of Concordia: Concordia controls the Sōryū Crystal, which contains the power of the Dragon with its ruler able to communicates with the Dragon Queen. Originally is ruled by Queen Andoria, Concordia was allies with Rubrum until she died, after which the Concordian King takes full control of the nation and joins forces with Milites.
