• Shabin Zara Top: An alliance of profit-driven merchants with sophisticated technology. Its cheerful, flamboyant members operate on mutual trust and profit.
• Forest of Melody: A distant forest where spirits have formed their own civilization. They love peace and hate fighting, and are led by Tosa Mikoto, a powerful spirit.
• Republic of Larok: The nation that once led an aetheric revolution, triggering a global war. After losing and suffering severe ecosystem damage, it works with St. Rosemary's Academy to teach the proper use of the aether. Most of its citizens recognize their country's wrongdoing.
