Edinburgh (エジンバラ Ejinbara?) is the capital city of Scotland, one of the four countries making up the United Kingdom.
Background[]
Edinburgh was founded as a royal burgh by King David I in the early 12th century, though there had been Iron and Bronze Age settlements in the area and a Gododdin hill fort (Din Eidyn/Etin) from some point prior to the 7th century to around 950 when it was abandoned to the Scots. By the 14th and 15 centuries, it had come to be considered the principal burgh of Scotland and the kingdom's capital.
During the time of the Golden Dawn, Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers planned to establish the cabal's sixth temple, the Amen-Ra Temple, in Scotland,[1] with the chosen site in Edinburgh.
At some point prior to her coup d'état attempt, Carissa had a tomb constructed for herself in Edinburgh as part of the preparations for her plans.[2]
New Light has several bases in the city, including apartments and at least one in a boat moored in a yacht harbour.[3][4]

The Sky Bus 365 which Kamijou Touma and Index Librorum Prohibitorum took from Academy City to the United Kingdom flew from School District 23 to Edinburgh Airport,[5] touching down as planned in a conventional landing rather than an emergency one despite the terrorist incident which had taken place during the flight.[6][7]
During Carissa's coup d'état, members of the Agnese Forces, who had previously been investigating one of New Light's bases,[3] were surrounded by the Knights of England in a yacht harbour in the city.[8]
