Reason for High Wall Of Lothric?

[MASADA]

Anyone know the lore behind this? Who were they trying to keep out of Lothric when they built the wall?

Plebs who need to git gud.

Well ah... Dark Souls world is heavily influenced by mediaval times.
Building castles with BIIIG walls was a popular thing.

Irythill were sort of like agressors i guess so maybe against them (didn't stoped Vordt and Dancer though...)

Well and separate proper citizens from poor ones. From the likes of Undead Settlement for example.

Trump was inspired by the lothric wall confirmed

Maybe it was the giants.

"Plebs who need to git gud." is another possibility.

Real talk, it was the Undead.

All of the different kingdoms have tried different things to separate the Undead from the normal population. Anor Londo rounded them up and sent them to an Asylum in the far north to be guarded and contained by demons. Thorolund sent them on a suicidal pilgrimage. Vinheim quietly exiled them. Farron used them as Slaves and as a means to cull any Abyss Watchers that fell to the Abyss. The Old Iron King and later King Vendrick sent them to a prison-fortress in the ocean, or gave them to his brother Aldia for his experiments. The Old Iron King also used Undead as sport for great hunts, and also imprisoned them within a large coliseum where they could be killed, revived, and killed again, endlessly, for the enjoyment of spectators.

Lothric apparently just decided to build a really big ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wall around their city. There is a large settlement of Undead at the base of the wall, because that's as close as they could, or were allowed to get.

Of course this strategy, like all of the others, didn't work. People within Lothric began to become Undead too, since the curse doesn't require close contact with other Undead to change people, it just sort of happens, and slowly as more of the population became both Undead and Hollow, the city fell into chaos.

I think to keep Pontiff Staminavhan tyranny at bay since his influence started spreading. Royalty of Londor probably fled to Lothric

[Washing Machine]

Think most all major cities in Souls have large walls around them. I mean look around Firelink in DS1, there's massive walls all around you.

Gotta protect dat kingdom. That's what the High Wall is for. Maybe wars might happen, some Carim jerks wanna come and take your waifus souls.

Maybe cus of the Demons?
