  Archenland Information
Lewis's fantasy novels the Chronicles of Narnia, Archenland is a nation to the south of Narnia.
Archenland's formation is uncertain, and was believed to be under Narnian rule; but it constitutes a separate country at the time of King Col of Archenland (180 years after Narnia's creation).
Unlike Narnia, Archenland keeps its line of rulers unbroken at least as late as the time of The Horse and His Boy, and the main character of The Horse and His Boy, Shasta, is of this line.
