Traditionally a peaceful and religious country, Nisan is a country located on an island in a meteor crater lake on a large island immediately northwest of the Ignas mainland.
History
Nisan was allied with Shevat as part of the Anti-Solaris Alliance against Solaris during the Shevat-Solaris War.
In 9502, after the Diabolos Collapse, Nisan was re-founded by survivors. Isolde, the daughter of Rene Fatima, and Jacquelinde, Sophia's assistant advisor, would eventually be in line to become the Nisan Orthodoxy's Second Mother.

Marguerite Fatima is the current Holy Mother of Nisan.
Although Nisan was originally neutral in the Aveh-Kislev war, the appearance of Shakhan and the repeated attacks and kidnappings of Nisan officials forced Nisan to join with Bartholomew Fatima against the desert nation.
Nisan contains a large underground facility. Originally believed to be a tomb, it turns out to be Ft. Jasper, one of the defense turrets of the crashed Eldridge, which is also where Bart's ancestor sealed his Omnigear, Andvari.
Transformed humans and Wels gathered at Nisan for treatment after the Soylent Systems on the surface were destroyed. Despite the latter's need to consume flesh in order to stave off their pain, their presence there was peaceful, something Fei attributed to Elly.
The Gazel Ministry saw this as the perfect opportunity to use the Gaetia Key, but Cain prevented them from doing so until he was assassinated by Ramsus.
Nisan is one of many locations that are inaccessible in the disc 2 world map of Xenogears.
