The '''Kingdom Ruins''' are an unexplored and unnamed location within the ''Kingdom'' region in ''[[Assassin's Creed]]''. Hidden deep within the mountainous terrain, this area consists of a large ancient ruin complex, featuring stone foundations, broken columns, and remnants of classical-style architecture. Despite its impressive scale, the site serves no major narrative or gameplay purpose, making it one of the more mysterious landmarks in the game.

The area does not appear in any main mission or side mission, nor is it referenced by any characters or documents. However, several King Richard Flags can be found scattered throughout the ruins, indicating it was intentionally placed as an explorable optional site. Due to the lack of any official name or story significance, It has referred to be the "Kingdom Ruins."

Its design resembles a forgotten ancient temple, possibly hinting at a lost civilization or a destroyed town predating the events of the game. Its secluded nature and atmospheric decay make it a favorite among players who enjoy exploration and hidden world-building details.

We do this together or not at all.

It has been proposed that this page be merged with Kingdom, under the article: Kingdom. Discussion to this effect can be held on the former article's talk page.

The Roman Ruins[1] were an abandoned structure in the Levant, nestled within the mountainous terrain of the Kingdom, at the halfway distance between Jerusalem and Acre. Consisting of the ruins of an ancient complex, the area featured stone foundations, broken columns, and remnants of classical-style architecture, indicating that the complex dated to at least the late Roman Empire.[2]

In 1191, the Levantine Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad visited the ruins, where he collected ten Crusader army flags and assassinated a Templar knight stationed nearby.[2]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

The Roman Ruins appear to be based on Palmyra, particularly the Monumental Arch.[3] However, the location being depicted as a crossroad between Acre, Masyaf, Damascus, and Jerusalem is geographically inaccurate, as in reality, Palmyra is the northeasternmost of those sites.
