Arendelle Archives 4-year-anniversary countdown - 10/10
In our FINAL PART of our anniversary series, we take a look at the citizens of Arendelle and all facts known so far about Frozen characters. This project began in 2023, almost three years ago, and will continue for future releases such as Frozen III and IV, as well as all future Frozen comics and books.
This is perhaps the most comprehensive reference for all Frozen fans and nerds, fanfic writers and analysts, who now finally have an overview of all Frozen media. The project consists of two files: the pdf book with 92 pages and the spreadsheet source file with 11 tables.
I (@bigfrozenfan) had the idea for the design of this book back in February 2024, when Disney's cookbook was first announced, with recipes from Arendelle. I will use this design for all my future projects, like I already did with Arendelle - Speculations about history (LINK). Other works are in progress, coming soon.
I first presented a table called ‘Frozen names and places’ in March 2024, which included a list of the 20 most famous kingdoms, 94 characters from books and comics, a list of 124 professions (partly based on my own assumptions) including shops in Arendelle and an initial list of popular dishes.
However, the preparatory work for this began much earlier, in 2018, when I entered my entire Disney Frozen collection in a spreadsheet and finally, in 2022, all my Frozen books, including cover images, brief information, publisher, price and ISBN numbers. The Frozen comics were added later and my digital collection grew from year to year.
In October 2023, I finally began to collect all the available character information on the Disney Frozen universe in a very comprehensive spreadsheet.
This book, “The Official Book Citizens of Arendelle”, is based on these findings, compiled from all the Frozen films, shorts, books and comics available to me.

You can find the greatly expanded spreadsheet here: Frozen Facts Spreadsheet
It includes all known kingdoms and locations, characters with professions and where to find them, all source information, locations/shops/restaurants, dishes and other foods, all known festivals and events in Arendelle, in-universe books, fun facts and other finds. This spreadsheet is constantly being expanded and is currently in version 4. All abbreviations of mentioned books and comics in the pdf can be found in the spreadsheet too!
A total of 148 Frozen books (novels, guides and chapter books), as well as all Frozen films, shorts and audio stories were analysed for this book. In addition, 335 comics from Dark Horse, Joe Books and all comic collections available to me from Frozen magazines. The result is currently over 250 characters known by name, mostly with scanned images, and the list is sure to grow.
However, the first few pages of the book deal with the monarchs of Arendelle and how it all began.
I would like to thank my fellow editors @virtual-winter, @snowflaketale12, @sunflowers-and-sandwiches, Lilythesnowgie and many other Royal Archivists of Arendelle Archives for their help and suggestions on our Discord Server.
Disclaimer: Please don't edit the copyrighted spreadsheet file! You are not allowed to use any data shown in this file on other websites! But you are allowed to share the link to this file on my Google Drive to other fans. It took me more than two years to collect all of this data. I did this for all Frozen fans and only for private use!
And now have much fun with this project!
