2.here is the storyline of this game:
a great era of peace and prosperity is fading.The stabibilty bestowed upon ivalice in the founding days of the Dynast-King has been darkened by the likelihood of war between empires. Rozarria and Archadia seem destined to collide,crushing whatever stands between them.


Indeed, the Archadian puch west toward Roazarria has already consumed Nabradia and its sibling sovereiginty, the small, peaceful Kingdom of Dalmasca. FINAL FANTASYXII opens with a quick glimpse of the last throes of pre-Imperial Dalmasca and its deperate fight for freedom, followed by an equally desperate negotiation for peace.
