'''Calanfer''', formally '''Eternal Lands of Calanfer''', is a kingdom in [[Terandria]] ruled by [[House Marquin]], one of the [[Hundred Families of Terandria]].
The kingdom borders [[Kaliv]]. The two kingdoms together with [[Gaiil-Drome]] were, 28 years ago, part of an alliance against seven other nations, most prominent among those the powerful [[Ailendamus]].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/09/14/6-44-e/ Chapter 6.44 E]</ref> This alliance is known as the Saiver Pact<ref>{{VERef|7.08 K}}</ref> or, more commonly, the Dawn Concordat and stands to this day.Calanfer has once usurped one of the sixteen [[Dragonthrones]] and built their country around it.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/03/15/7-12-g/ Chapter 7.12 G]</ref> When it was founded, the lands used to be ruined by the [[Crelers]].
The country claims to have its roots roughly 6,000 years in the past, right after the end of the [[Creler Wars]], which means they are a very young nation by Terandrian standards<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/06/10/7-28/ Chapter 7.28]</ref> that needs to boast their claims with attributes like eternal<ref name=":6.03">[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/03/30/6-03/ Chapter 6.03]</ref>. The ruler of Calanfer occupies the Eternal Throne of Calanfer, and [[Lyonette du Marquin]] is the sixth princess in line to that throne.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/14/2-21/ Chapter 2.21]</ref>
The previous queen before King [[Reclis du Marquin|Reclis]] had spent her whole life opposing Ailendamus, but they proved too strong to be obstructed.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/09/25/9-17-r/ Chapter 9.17 R]</ref>
The kingdom of Calanfer does not lack for [Princesses] and [Princes], but is not notably powerful militarily or economically. Their main capital are their royal heirs who can make political marriages and thus safeguard the kingdom through diplomacy.<ref name=":Glossary">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/10/19/glossary/ Glossary]</ref>
Due to the Terandrian policy of ''ichorial lineage'' where pureblood [[nobility]] carries enormous political weight, Calanfer can be suspected to be rather influential despite not being powerful.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/11/09/interlude-the-titans-question/ Interlude - The Titan's Question]</ref>
As previously mentioned, Calanfer does not have a powerful military, being more adept at diplomacy and politics. It can levy twenty thousand [Soldiers] and [Militia].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/02/10/8-06-rt/ Chapter 8.06 RT]</ref> Their knight order, the [[Thronebearers of Calanfer]], are better at courtly affairs and bodyguard duty than they are at combat on a battlefield. That said, they have achieved surprising victories in the past, like holding off four armies at Krawlnmak’s Pass.
Calanfer's champion, the Lightherald, is considered as strong as a Named rank adventurer thanks to the Relics he wields.
Calanfer has some coastline and has a navy, though its strength is most likely limited.
