・Sutherland (Saint Raphael Knights)
A fifth generation Knightmare Frame developed based on the results of Glasgow. Its mobility has been greatly improved. Currently, it is the most commonly used mass-produced Knightmare Frame in the Britannian Imperial Army.
・Sutherland (Euro Britannia)
The aircraft is essentially the same as that used in the home country.
- Glasgow: The first fourth-generation Knightmare Frame to be used in combat. As the main weapon of the Britannian Empire when it occupied Japan, it overwhelmed the Japanese military, which was equipped only with conventional weapons, proving its high usefulness.

■Glossary: ​​Holy Britannian Empire A huge empire that rules over one third of the world and is an aristocratic society with the Emperor of Britannia at the top. With their powerful military power, they have occupied various parts of the world one after another and made them into territories called "areas". Each area is assigned a number, and the people who live there are called Numbers and are discriminated against by the people of the Britannian Empire. They are at war with the EU.
・The Union of European Republics (EU)
The Europia Republic Union. A republic centered in Europe. It has its roots in the civil revolution about 300 years ago, and unlike the Britannian Empire and the Chinese Federation, it has never had an autocratic monarch. However, the irresponsibility and selfishness that come with democracy are corroding the nation and it is becoming weak.
The Chinese Federation is a large nation that rules over a large area of ​​the eastern Eurasian continent. It is led by the Emperor, but corruption is increasing among a privileged class of bureaucrats known as the Grand Eunuchs.
Area 11
In the year 2010 of the Imperial Calendar, a diplomatic conflict over the rare resource Sakuradite led to Japan and the Britannian Empire entering a state of war. Japan was quickly occupied by the Britannian Empire. As a result, the name "Japan" was taken away and it came to be called "Area 11".
This is the name Britannians use to refer to Japanese people who live in Area 11. Japanese people dislike this name because it has discriminatory connotations.
Knightmare Frame: A humanoid mobile weapon developed by the Britannian Empire. Despite its small size, only a few meters in length, its high traversal ability due to its bipedal walking ability and the diversity of weapons it can use thanks to its two arms give it an overwhelming advantage over conventional weapons.
