'''Aliahan''' is a [[List of Kingdoms in Dragon Quest|kingdom]] found in [[Enix America Corporation|Enix's]] ''[[Dragon Quest III]]''. Located on a small continent in the southeastern ocean, Aliahan is the land from which the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]] ventures worth into the wider world to save it from the fiend [[Baramos]].

Located on a small continent in the southeastern ocean, Aliahan is the land from which the {{Hero 3}} ventures forth into the wider world to save it from the fiend [[Baramos]]. It's kingdom includes the castle town of the same name near the southern bay, and the smaller town of [[Reeve]] in the northwest.
Interestingly, the continent serves as an excellent tutorial for new players to the series as it features a castle, two towns, [[Promontory Passage|two]] distinct [[Path of Promise|dungeons]], [[Dreamer's Tower|a tower]], and enemies that provide different types of threats. An incredible achievement in game design.

It is said that Aliahan once ruled over the whole world several centuries ago, but war broke out and the country's territory was reduced to the island continent seen in the game. In modern times Aliahan maintains peaceful relations with other nations under its wise king, but the teleportal to the mainland was sealed off. The player must break the seal with the [[Wrecking ball]] to reach [[Romaria]] and begin the adventure in earnest.

As the birthplace of [[Ortega]], Aliahan has garnered a reputation as the home of heroes. The legacy of the incredible man has spread to nearly every corner of the world, and with it the reputation of Aliahan.

In the remakes of {{III}}, there is a shack at the bottom of the castle town's well where the medal king lives. He serves the same purpose as his contemporaries in other titles do, and his system uses the accumulation method of issuing rewards rather than using the medals as a currency to purchase items with.

In the {{NES}} version, the party had limited item slots due to hardware restraints and could store additional items here for a small fee upon retrieval. [[Gold]] could also be stored in 1,000 piece increments.

In the Super Famicom version onwards, the vault became only a [[Bank|gold bank]], since the item storage was no longer necessary with the addition of the [[bag]].

The {{Hero 11}} can visit Aliahan through the [[Echo Chamber]]. He is taken to a time just before the marriage of [[Ortega]] and his fiance, and sees that several villagers have gathered in the woman's house to prevent the union. As it turns out, this is the work of a monster that was trying to prevent a legendary hero from being born and the party makes quick work of the nuisance. Additionally, the {{Luminary}} can get a [[Personality]]-altering book from [[Ortega]]'s father, which can be used to alter [[Jessica Albert]]'s mind at [[Chateau Felix]].

[[Majellan]] and [[Mindini]] find themselves in Aliahan at the end of Chapter 1, Episode 1 of the game's {{Dragon Quest III}} event. The duo encounter Patty, who is shocked to encounter friendly {{MFamilies}}s, but she warms up to them quickly and invites them to her pub. Afterwards, she encourages them to speak to the townspeople to find a way for them to return to Orchesterra.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
Although most regions in the world of {{Dragon Quest III}} mimic real world locations, the continent of Aliahan does not. Its position in the ocean would approximate Australia, but this is already occupied by [[Lanson]], and the shape of Aliahan's landmass does not resemble the continent as well as the former. Due to Aliahan's history as a world-encompassing empire that has since fallen, a closer comparison would be the [[wikipedia:Mu (lost continent)|lost continent of Mu]], which is said to have be a colossal landmass in the south Pacific ocean.
