Ahoy folks! Do you hate social media? Maybe don't read the rest of this then... because we're on Twitter ( twitter.com/TemplinEdu ) and Facebook ( facebook.com/TemplinInstitute )!!
Ferelden: mocked by its neighbours as a primitive, weak and backwards nation with minimal influence over the rest of Thedas. Ferelden: the nation so fearsome that it fought and defeated an entire Blight single-handedly before the rest of Thedas even knew it was happening. I’m a sucker for a good underdog story, and Ferelden is a lovely example. ^_^
(i know its a bit late but hey ^^) ähhm... there are some elves and dwarfs that might take offense to the "single handedly" remark ;) without the dwarfs and dalish helping ferelden they would likely have been truly f**ed.
@Johnny Silverhand Well punned lol. Also that is true but I was not just referring to Kirkwall. It is said that refugees were going to various cities in the Free Marches. But I also wasn't attributing that to Ferelden.
I'm continually impressed with the quality of these videos. Well done. If you're looking for suggestions for future videos, how about House Atreides or the Fremen from Dune?
This channel is amazing. Provides amazing analysis over so much. Really helps understand the lore as well. Hope you plan to make many many more videos ^^
I am so glad this was in my recommendations. I fleeted through the videos, thumbnails of this channel and I am darn right impress. The artwork, orderly nature and pristine color palette are quite tempting. And this vid, the background score and voice narration are well done and added to my exquisite nostalgia for Dragon Age, I am subbed in. Thanks for your work. I appreciate it.
This is absolute propaganda! I took a short tour of Ferelden just a few years ago, and let me tell you it was not rights for everyone. Initially I wanted to visit this magic tower, I had heard it was THE tourist location. Sadly it was destroyed in some sort of terrorist attack shortly before my arrival. So instead I travelled to Denerim. When I arived they were in the middle of genociding the elf quarter in the city and I thought, 'maybe this is an off day.' Damned if the very next day they didn't decapitate the king... or at least I think he was the king. The whole room of delegates seemed split on the issue. Then they made this random dwarf woman queen... at least I think. Not that it mattered as she was eaten by a dragon or something (I blame their poor excuse of what they call an 'immigration policy') the next day and it was given to some horribly unqualified man on the grounds of nepotism. Frankly the entire trip was appalling. As is this video... I expected a more neutral and scholarly viewpoint from you!
ANd the claims of Elves and mages marching with the army. I had a brother their he told me it was templars and werewolves of all things that marched along side them and the dwarves.
If you could do more warhammer 40k I’d be eternally grateful. What you did on Ultramar was spectacular. Any faction would be awesome. I’d specifically like to hear more about the space marines, but there are other factions in the Imperium and then all the alien factions. Love your videos keep up the great work
Great video the Dragon age games is easily my top 2 games series. I would love it if you did a video on th qùn, it's actually really interesting i think you would enjoy it
Fantastic video, and an excellent music choice that just seemed like it was made for Dragon Age or other Medieval games like Elder Scrolls, LotR, etc. Now my suggestions. LDO from Dies Irae NERV from Neon Genesis Evangelion Chaldea from Fate/Grand Order Khaos Brigade from Highschool DxD Imperial Guards from Warhammer 40K XCOM
You guys should do any of the big 10 corps from Shadowrun. I would recommend Aztechnology. Just your friendly enclave of Aztec blood mages who happen to not only own most of central America but also have a near monopoly on the world's food supply.
Sorry Templin, I absolutely love your videos but I could not listen to single word of this video..... because of that music!! So unbelievably beautiful I just could not focus on anything else. Thank you so much for putting the name and artist in the description Edit: Not that said name and artist matters unless I want to waste either $50 for the song or waste my patience hearing "premium beat.com" over the music every 20 seconds
Great video, as always. But I had to play it twice because I zeroed in on the background score with audial tunnel vision. Wish I could get that track for a reasonable price.
The Templin Institute Judge Joseph Dredd, Senior Street Judge of the MC01JD (Mega City 01 Justice Department), Created by now dead Chief Judge Fargo. The best Judge of Judges.
Loghain Mac Tir is probably on the level of Boromir (who is among my favourite fantasy characters), when it comes to tragical fantasy heroes/anti-heroes: Both tried to do what they thought was best for their countries, with spectacuarly bad methods and ideals, and that's why they both failed. Also this is the reason why I could never outright kill Loghain, instead gave him the chance to redeem himself in most of my playthroughs... also because I was afraid to send my character to the death! :D
The Domination of the Draka from the books of S.M. Stirling would be nice to see,and also The Whisperers from WD...both are waaay to brutal,but interesting...
Ahoy folks! Do you hate social media? Maybe don't read the rest of this then... because we're on Twitter ( twitter.com/TemplinEdu ) and Facebook ( facebook.com/TemplinInstitute )!!
The Templin Institute do more fallout
The Templin Institute please do project freelancer from Red vs Blue
Please do the Daleks from Doctor Who.
The Templin Institute please,speak about the RDA from the Avatar film of 2009.
Aldmeri dominion (elder scrolls) please

Hey, that's my logo ! :)
To be fair the free marches also had to deal with the fallout of the fifth blight directly, however that was only due to refugees.
(i know its a bit late but hey ^^) ähhm... there are some elves and dwarfs that might take offense to the "single handedly" remark ;)
without the dwarfs and dalish helping ferelden they would likely have been truly f**ed.
@Johnny Silverhand
Well punned lol.

Heh, underdog... good one, especially given the Mabari on their crest...
I'm continually impressed with the quality of these videos. Well done.
If you're looking for suggestions for future videos, how about House Atreides or the Fremen from Dune?
Super Ginrai I vary much agree. The templin Institute maintains a high Level of quality in their videos
"Oh, Grey Warden,
What have you done?
The oath you have taken
Is all but broken."
Oh the nostalgia. :D
Now you've done Fereldon, you simply must do the Empire of Orlais or the Tevinter Imperium. Or both!
i would wait with tevinter we need the new game out
These videos are just a complete joy to watch. The music, accuracy, and voiceover are all perfect. Thanks for all the hard work!
Damn! Ferelden was a Haven before the blight. Could ya do the cyrodiilic empire next?
thier were still problems with ferelden before the blight
The empire of Tamriel under the septim or Mede dynasties please
This channel is amazing. Provides amazing analysis over so much. Really helps understand the lore as well.
Hope you plan to make many many more videos ^^
I am so glad this was in my recommendations.
I fleeted through the videos, thumbnails of this channel and I am darn right impress. The artwork, orderly nature and pristine color palette are quite tempting.
And this vid, the background score and voice narration are well done and added to my exquisite nostalgia for Dragon Age, I am subbed in.
Thanks for your work. I appreciate it.
More from Mass Effect and Dragon Age, please! This format of videos is marvelous!
Belka from Ace Combat Series.
Remember Waldreich. 6/6/1995 - Never forget.
Belka lives on in our hearts.
Belka did nothing wrong
This is by far one of the best and well researched lore video on the subject of Fereldan Lore! This was amazing thank you 😁
Found this channel yesterday and love your content. Keep up the great work.
The Cyrodiilic Empire of Tamriel!
Malcolm Thorne Sounds great
(For those who are uncultured swines)
Frank Wong I concur
Crocodile empire
Oh, wow. I considered myself quite fluent in DA lore, but some of this I didn't know. So, great job as always!

Maybe your bro choose a different day to visit than some of us. I don't remember werewolves at all on the battlefield - just angry ones in the forest.
This channel, and its videos, are getting better and better. Keep up the good work!
Dragon Age isn't even in my top 10 games, but the depth of this video is so great I subbed instantly, cheers
Once again, you have done a great job with this. I feel like this is real life history, like I could go out and find this in a Library.
Looking through the comments,it seems this institute will have plenty of work for the next Century!
Martian Congressional Republic (MCR) from The Expanse, pretty please
If you could do more warhammer 40k I’d be eternally grateful. What you did on Ultramar was spectacular. Any faction would be awesome. I’d specifically like to hear more about the space marines, but there are other factions in the Imperium and then all the alien factions. Love your videos keep up the great work
Deän Dhadwal any faction -would be awesome- that is human and not heretical xeno filth.
I fixed your comment for you.
All in the name of the Ordos Xenos, we have to know how to destroy them. For Inquisitor eyes only.
because we don't get shit about the space marines right?
Another great video! If I may cast a vote for one I'd like to see, the Slavic Federation from Civilization Beyond Earth would be great.
So glad you covered the special bond with the Mabari 🐶
" To neighboring Orlais, the Kingdom is seen as weak and ready to be retaken"
*laugh in battle of river Dane*
The Spartan Order of Rangers from the Metro series!
Holy shit, I need to read the codex! I didn't know any of this!
The Kingdom of Gondor!
Great vid. DA is great and its great to have it festured here
Im soo glad i found your channel! Might I suggest doing one from Homeworld like the Hiigara or Tidan Empire?
wow! i just started dragon age: origins again 2 day ago, and now you treat me with this video. great video. greater channel
I've played the games a great many times, but this video presents a holistic view that you can't find anywhere else.
Time for the weekly fix
It's gooooooooooooooooood.....
Great video. I would love to see the Star Kingdom of Manticore covered by you guys.
Dragon age has underrated lore
I hope they Investigate the Battletech universe, The Inner Sphere and Clans would be great to see.
Good pick from Dragon Age!
Loved how vague you guys were with the Dragon Age Origins content
Man this was badass! My favorite game series
Great video the Dragon age games is easily my top 2 games series. I would love it if you did a video on th qùn, it's actually really interesting i think you would enjoy it
Amazing lore video 😊 Keep up the great work!! ❤
The Galactic Empire from Legend of the Galactic Heros !
Do the Holy Empire of Sigmar
may i sujest the: Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC) or even the forces of hell from the DOOM serie. good job
The SCP Foundation would make for a great video
jromero9795 I'm pretty sure they already did
jromero9795 nope nvm
Smells like wet dog, war-torn, ravaged by a blight, and still my favorite Dragon Age nation!
i want to see the others before i decide but right Orlas is fav nation, fav people is the dalish on top of everything
Love your videos! Do the Tevinter Imperium, Orlais, or Valyria.
Would be cool to see The Templin Institute do a video on one of the factions from Supreme Commander.
Wow I stumbled here randomly, I love DAU and I like your content, you have earned a sub from me!
Fantastic video, and an excellent music choice that just seemed like it was made for Dragon Age or other Medieval games like Elder Scrolls, LotR, etc.
Now my suggestions.
LDO from Dies Irae
NERV from Neon Genesis Evangelion
Chaldea from Fate/Grand Order
Khaos Brigade from Highschool DxD
Imperial Guards from Warhammer 40K
XCOM
The Assassin's Brotherhood, if it's no trouble.
Coalition of Ordered Governments from Gears of War, if you would be so kind. :)
Japan in ghost in the shell
We need more "real life" countries in fiction in general. Or maybe they will just do section 9.
That's a wonderful idea!
You could also do warhammer fantasy. Both 40k and warhammer have epic lore.
FOR FERELDEN!
You guys should do any of the big 10 corps from Shadowrun. I would recommend Aztechnology. Just your friendly enclave of Aztec blood mages who happen to not only own most of central America but also have a near monopoly on the world's food supply.
great vid! Love all things Dragon Age!
After DAI, Thedas became my most loved fantasy realm, the game itself is ok to good, but the lore is fabulous.
I'd be so happy if you do Empire of the Isles from Dishonored next.
Please do the Human Systems Alliance from Mass Effect
Watching this before Veilguard to get myself hyped!
I always come to your channel when I want to base a stellaris nation on something cool
Ultor from Red Faction
or the Edf
Sorry Templin, I absolutely love your videos but I could not listen to single word of this video..... because of that music!! So unbelievably beautiful I just could not focus on anything else. Thank you so much for putting the name and artist in the description
Edit: Not that said name and artist matters unless I want to waste either $50 for the song or waste my patience hearing "premium beat.com" over the music every 20 seconds
In many ways, Fereldan reminds me of Anglo-Saxon England, pre-Norman Wales and Croatia and makes it as a nation very interesting
This chanel rocks
Good job people
Great video, as always. But I had to play it twice because I zeroed in on the background score with audial tunnel vision. Wish I could get that track for a reasonable price.
Please do a video on the justice department of Mega City one from the universe of judge dredd?
Only if you can tell me WHO IS THE LAW?
The Templin Institute Judge Joseph Dredd, Senior Street Judge of the MC01JD (Mega City 01 Justice Department), Created by now dead Chief Judge Fargo. The best Judge of Judges.
elektron117 what can I say, I'm a fan of the judge dredd universe in all its glory.
:) more support for my suggestion
Loghain Mac Tir is probably on the level of Boromir (who is among my favourite fantasy characters), when it comes to tragical fantasy heroes/anti-heroes: Both tried to do what they thought was best for their countries, with spectacuarly bad methods and ideals, and that's why they both failed.

Can we get Kingdom of Temeria from The Witcherverse?
I think the Witcherverse needs its own series of videos. The Northern realms, Skellige and Saskia's realm would all make great videos
You just gained a sub, good job. ^w^
Great Video!
Very interesting, this was great.
IMC and the Militia from Titanfall next ??
Or are they on a list for later ?
I can already smell the dogs! For King Alistair and Queen Anora!
The Mobile Infantry of the Terran Federation
BRDD or just the federation in general.
But the question is
_Would you like to know more?_
TheCommunistDragon ...yes
The Kingdom of Manticor from the series Honor Harrington
I've been reading this series for the past two years. I just started At All Costs.
The Domination of the Draka from the books of S.M. Stirling would be nice to see,and also The Whisperers from WD...both are waaay to brutal,but interesting...
Imperial Guard from Warhammer 40k
Darth Cindros
Meat shields
Adeptus Custodes, Grey Knights, Inquisition...
Daimon X
The grey knights are shitty borderline fan fiction trash written by the 5th chaos god Matt Ward. Everything else on the list is fine.
IMO, The Emperor's Gift by A.D. Bowden is pretty solid novel.
+A Random Crusader Cadia broke before the Guard did!
FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!!
Wow, no dislikes on this video. You guys deserve absolute likes. This is an amazing channel though.
Tevinter Imperium please.
Ahh love these videos! I suggest you do the foot clan from teenage mutant ninja turtles!
I want my Mabari back god damn it.
Nice video.
Could you do videos about the Orleasian Empire and the Tevinter Imperium?
Love these things! Keep it up guys!
Where do you get the music that's in these videos? It's wonderful and makes these videos even better.
Seeing as you have done Nod, any thoughts on doing the Scrin?
the Strogg would be an interesting choice for the next video and as always good job. ;)
the priest says what?
Aww yes I wanted the Grey Wardens or Darkspawn or the imperium but this is good
Great work as always.
I love your videos they make my day. plz keep it up
You should do the Umbrella Corporation from Resident Evil
Welcome to the Kingdom of the Dog Lords! :)
Could You Profile Osea from the Ace Combat Series? I'm Very Curious about Osea!
Dalek Empire please!
Kaiser Morty
The same for the Time Lords.
Hey you guys should do a video about the grey wardens
