Allegiance
Allegiance is the city-state to which you are loyal. There are three city-states that players may obtain an allegiance with: Limsa Lominsa, Ul'dah, and Gridania. The city in which a character begins does not determine their allegiance, the allegiance of a player is decided when they enlist in a Grand Company at level 20 as part of the Main Scenario Storyline. Moreover, a player is allowed to change their Grand Company/allegiance after their initial selection, although doing so will result in the loss of any previously obtained Company Rank.
