== Description ==
 Welcome to Dragon Valley, a land of myth and fantasy. It's been years since any adult dragons have terrorized this peaceful town but it's not yet time to rest. The elven Sims of Dragon Valley are working to ensure that their military is up to par, their citizens are prepared for disaster, and that the scientific techniques they've used to keep the dragonlings small stay intact. The skies may be clear for now, but beneath the surface a conflict is brewing between the Mithrillen and O'Connell families for control of the town. It's tradition vs. progress: on which side will you stand?
== Backstory ==
;Open Your Eyes!
You all walk around with dragons on your arms as pets. But don't you see? We're just recovering; we've finally rebuilt after the original Dragons ravaged our land.
The O'Connells "land" in our world with their way of taming dragons and we've been following them ever since! When it was we Mithrilens that used to keep the town safe!"
Don't let them pull the wool over your eyes. Just look at the dragons. They are supposed to be "babies" but each one does something more dastardly than the last!
This will only end in misery. Let me help you. The Mithrilen family knows our ways, our traditions, and our bond with the land. Let me guide you to safety, before it's too late.
;Mithrilen for Mayor
;Before it's too late.

==Editions==
*On May 10, 2013, Maxis set up a preview page on their website for Dragon Valley. The page had a glitch that allowed some people to purchase and download an incomplete version of the world. The glitch was soon fixed, but Maxis staff strongly recommended that players uninstall the incomplete version.SimGuruTaterTot Speaks on Dragon Valley Early Release on SimsVIP.com
*There is an additional venue available from the Store, The Duke of Bows Renaissance Faire, which was designed specifically for use in Dragon Valley. However, it must be purchased separately and is not included in the Gold Edition. Instead, buying the Gold Edition from the Store grants the purchaser enough additional SimPoints to buy the venue, and the write-up for the package explicitly recommends this.
*The Gold Edition version sold in the Store includes an extra set called Celtic Lands. The physical retail edition of the World includes an additional download code in the box, which must be redeemed separately in order to access the Celtic Lands extra features. The box edition does not, however, include additional SimPoints, as the Store edition does, making the box edition somewhere between the Standard and Gold editions from the Store.
==Namings==
*The names Dagda, Lugh, Brighid, are taken from Celtic Mythology.
*Morrigan O'Reilly shares her name with one of the most important Goddesses of Celtic Mythology.
*There's a street named Shillelagh Street, which is one of the drinks served by a mixologist.
*The Hooley and Dolan families are a parody of the tales Robin Hood and Little Red Riding Hood, respectively.
*The Sackholme family is a parody of Sookie and Jason Stackhouse from the True Blood TV series.
*The O'Connell family is either a parody of Mérida and her family from Disney/Pixar's Brave, or a parody of Dragonriders of Pern's Connell family.
*The MacAnna sisters could be a reference to either Lewis Carroll's, or Tim Burton's movie adaptation of, the White Queen & Red Queen, which are often portrayed respectively as good (Shannon) and bad (Teagan).
*Aislin Walsh is probably a spoof of Mrs. Lovett, from Sweeney Todd. She may also be a female spoof of Sweeney Todd himself, given her description.
==Trivia==
*The theatre in Dragon Valley is based on the World Theatre and its counterpart in SimCity, both of which are based on Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London, England.
*It is unknown if the elves of Dragon Valley are related in any way to the Blue Elves found in a Sims Medieval chance card that may appear upon "Tak[ing] a Stroll" in the forest, but their appearance seems to suggest so. Additionally, it is unknown if Dragon Valley is in any way related to the kingdoms of The Sims Medieval, although the "By my troth!" exclamation in the Sims 4 notification (see below) implies some connection.
*In The Sims 4, sometimes a sim gets a description of: "By my troth! My newest penpal resides in Dragon Valley!" when checking for penpal replies.
*Dragon Valley is mentioned in Door to Nowhere object from The Sims 4: Realm of Magic.
*It is unusual as to why Jennifer and Johnny Burb resides in this world as an adult and not Jeff Pleasant, Diane Pleasant, Brad Burb or Tiffany Burb as a child as The Sims 3 takes place before the events of The Sims, meaning Jennifer would not be born yet. However, Barnacle Bay does take place after the events of The Sims 2 so it's possible that Sunlit Tides takes place between the events of The Sims and The Sims 2 as Lucy Burb is not born yet and Jennifer and Johnny are not married yet, however there is no confirmation of this. 
**An adult Daniel Pleasant and Mary-Sue Pleasant also appear in Sunlit Tides without Diane or Jeff, which could also put Dragon Valley in the same possible timeline as Sunlit Tides as it should be noted Angela Pleasant and Lilith Pleasant are not born yet.
*Consumer technology is scarce by default in Dragon Valley. A few lots, like the Freedom Books library and Glen House, have computers, but TVs and stereos are nowhere to be seen unless added by the player.
