This article is a stub. You can help Triforce Wiki by expanding it.
At the heart of Hyrule is its kingdom, whose faithful people are called to keep the world at peace. The kingdom of Hyrule reigns over land that has been called the "Country of the Gods", largely for the wealth and prosperity it enjoys from its divine protection.
The Triforce is traditionally under the care of Hyrulean sages or the royal family. It is their duty to keep it from the clutches of heartless and evil beings who desire its power.
The kingdom is often threatened by demons, and this has created a cycle of prosperity and decline. Over time, Hyrule's history has been defined by periods of great conflict and oppression between the races who call the world home. Various traditions and legends have been born from strife, and if one path leads the kingdom of Hyrule to a diminished state, another sees it rise from the ashes, sometimes in new lands.
Royal Family
Although there are many legends regarding Princess Zelda, few records of other Hylian Royals survive. King Daltus in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, and the ancient King Gustaf are often cited as rulers of particular importance.

King Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule
The king who left the greatest mark on history: Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule. The king was guided by the goddess to seal Hyrule. Awakening in response to Ganon's revival in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, he transferred his soul to a small boat known as the King of Red Lions and guided Link. To end the cycle of conflict, he used the power of the Triforce to submerge Hyrule.
Prince of Hyrule
The old king's son, unable to wield the Triforce, questioned Princess Zelda about its location. Because she would not give up the information, Princess Zelda was placed into an eternal slumber by a palace wizard.
Royal Retainers
A portrait of the princess and her retainers, who were chosen as the bodyguards of the successor princess when Hyrule was sealed. Escaping the seal, their descendants formed Tetra's pirate crew. Even in the new kingdom of The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, some of these descendants are present and swear allegiance to the Royal Family.
