Synopsis of Azur Lane
The beginning of the game features an anthropomorphic recreation of the Battle of the Denmark Strait, in which the personification of the famous British battlecruiser HMS Hood is sunk by characters representing German forces. The game features an eponymous military alliance, the "Azur Lane", formed and integrated by the nations of Eagle Union (United States), Royal Navy (United Kingdom), Sakura Empire (Empire of Japan), Iron Blood (Nazi Germany), Dragon Empire (Republic of China), Northern Parliament (Soviet Union), Iris Orthodoxy (France) and Sardegna Empire (Kingdom of Italy).
The alliance was split in two due to an alien intervention, and Iron Blood, Sakura Empire, and Sardegna Empire formed the opposing faction of the “Crimson Axis”. Using technology provided by aliens called "Sirens", the Crimson Axis invades its former allies. As a result, many territories of Azur Lane came under the occupation of the Crimson Axis, and the Iris Orthodoxy was divided into the Iris Libre (Free France) and the Vichya Dominion (Vichy France). The rest of the game's main plot partially follows the United States naval engagements in the Pacific War. The chapters depict several decisive battles of the war, including the Battle of Midway, the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal, and the Marianas and Palau Islands campaign.
