Old Kingdom

The Old Kingdom is the last remnant of the first great empire, a bastion of chivalry, duty, and honor. Once rulers of the continent, they now control only a fraction of their former lands but remain unyielding in their traditions.

Unlike the New Kingdom, born from rebellion, the Old Kingdom holds to its ancient ideals and the divine right to rule. Their monarch is seen as the rightful heir of the first empire, and their legendary knights are unmatched in skill and discipline.

Their rigid traditions make them slow to adapt, yet they see themselves as the last true defenders of civilization. In Ultima Chess, they fight to restore their legacy before history leaves them behind.
