The Ice Kingdom, home of the IceWings, is a tribe currently ruled by Queen Glacier. It makes up the "head", or northern peninsula, of Pyrrhia, and somewhat resembles the state of Alaska. The kingdom is composed primarily of mountains, glaciers, and has floating ice on the surface of water, with extremely cold temperatures and freezing wind that often reach subzero. The weather is complementary to the IceWing tribe's abilities and traits, however, and so they thrive in its hostile conditions without trouble. It is bordered in by the Kingdom of Sand.

Description
The entirety of the Ice Kingdom is surrounded by the Great Ice Cliff. Queen Glacier's palace is located in the far north, on the peninsula. It is said to be made entirely of enchanted ice. The palace is described to be consistent of such a low temperature that no dragon else other than an IceWing would be able to survive. Inside the palace, there is a Moon Globe Tree created by Frostbite, which is the "Gift of Light".
Blaze's fortress is near the edge of the Ice Kingdom, for the reason that tribes other than IceWings cannot survive in climates with subzero temperatures.
If Princess Blaze had won the war, for the IceWings were allied with her, the Ice Kingdom would have been expanded to include the rocky land bordering the Kingdom of Sand. There is very little there, but Deathbringer pointed out that there may be valuable treasure buried beneath the rocks, that Blaze might not know about.
Near the 'mouth' of Pyrrhia, the Diamond Caves are located. This is where the Diamond Trial takes place, when the first circle dragonet competes against the seventh circle dragonet.
It was mentioned in The Hidden Kingdom that IceWings had taverns, but no further evidence of this has been found.
History
In the The Hidden Kingdom, Glory and Jambu traveled to the Ice Kingdom to find Blaze. They tested her to see if she was worthy of the next ruler of the SandWings. Deathbringer was hiding near the border, possibly indicating that he lived in the Ice Kingdom while waiting for Blaze and the dragonets. There he attempted to kill her with sharp metal disks. In The Dark Secret, it was mentioned that Queen Battlewinner was in the Ice Kingdom and got hit by an IceWing's frost breath.
The IceWing kingdom is guarded by an animus-touched cliff that only allows Icewings to pass it. If any other tribe of dragons pass this wall, shards of ice with fly out of it and kill them. In the IceWing castle courtyard grows a tree made of ice. Growing on the tree are moon globes, which are sources of light and can be picked by passing dragons. This tree was made by an animus dragon named Frostbite, who is mentioned in Winter Turning.
