- The Republic of Shambhalla is a country which has for centuries been shrouded in a veil of mystery. Today Shambhalla is a society where its inhabitants are an enlightened and well educated people. Some of the finest minds of today's society had travel to Shambhalla to call it home because it is a society which great support advancements in a wide variety of subjects.

Such petty desire as acquisitions of wealth and power have long since be left of Shambhallan society. The nation of Shambhalla is centered on the capital city of Kalapa. It is a beautiful and might city and is home to both the national and spiritual leadership of the Republic. Since the death of the last Shambhallan King Raudra Chakrin, Shambhalla has been a Republic whose power is vested within a Grand Senate. Since the return of Ganos Desala who is believed to be one of the original inhabitants of Shambhalla, the Shambhallan people have followed a religious teachings known as Ganosian Theosophy. Ganos Desala serves the country as its spiritual leader.

- Marco Polo and his caravan were the first to discover the city on their way back from Kublai Khan's court. He left behind a series of clues that were picked up by Lazarevic, and then by Drake; A map hidden within a Mongolian oil lamp, a Phurba and map amongst the survivors of the lost fleet, a three-dimensional stone map inside a temple (revealing the location of the monastery), and various writings that alluded to the Cintamani Stone. Centuries later & 70 years prior to the start of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, an SS expedition sent by the Ahnenerbe attempted to find the entrance to Shambhala in an ice cave, before being corrupted because of their ingestion of the resin native to Shambhala; they were killed by their guide, Karl Schafer. In order to find Shambhala, one needed to have a certain phurba. If one had it, they would go to the Valley of Temples in modern-day Nepal to find a temple. Only a single temple in the valley would be valid; this would be deduced through sharing similar markings on the phurba. Once one entered the temple, he/she would have to solve a puzzle by moving a statue's hands; once the hands were in correct placement, the phurba would be entered into the stomach section of the statue and an underground passage would be revealed. One would have to be careful of traps, such as a descending ceiling with spikes. Once one exited, they would come across another puzzle utilizing light; after solving it, they would go even further underground and come to a rotund chamber. He/she would place the phurba into the solitary pedestal and a 3-D model of the Himalayas would rise up from the ground, with the one beam of light shining down showing the location of the monastery that hid the entrance to Shambhala. If one chose to travel to the monastery, he/she would go the highest tower and solve a puzzle that would reveal a switch. Once the phurba was inserted into the switch, and once the switch itself was turned, the secret path would be revealed. At the end of the path, two big daggers on the wall had to be turned, and the brazier in the middle had to be lit with blue resin. This would reveal tiny pocket which one would insert the phurba into. Once said action was done, the gates to Shambhala would be revealed. By turning cylinders on the wall, the gates would open and the city would be revealed. Even though many people believed that the Cintamani Stone was the biggest treasure of the city besides the city itself, this was not the case; it was the resin from the Tree of Life and the Tree of Life itself that were the city's biggest treasures. The city was destroyed when Nate defeated Lazarevic by exploding the roots of the Tree of Life; the resulting explosions made the city crash.

Segundo o mito, os salvadores da humanidade virão de Shambhala quando a Terra for dominada pela guerra e a destruição. É considerado como o país de origem da doutrina do Kalachakra ("Roda do Tempo"), tantra budista que teria sido originalmente redigido por Suchandra (chamado Dawa Sangpo em tibetano), rei mítico de Shambhala. A doutrina foi introduzida na Índia em 966 ou 967 d.C., trazida, segundo alguns, por um homem santo chamado Tsilupa e, segundo outros, por um rei de Shambhala chamado Sripala. Dali, passou ao Tibete e a introdução dessa doutrina no país, em 1027 d.C., é a data de origem do calendário tibetano. Na Índia, essa doutrina desapareceu durante a época do domínio muçulmano, mas no Tibete continua viva.

Modern practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism see Shambhala as a spiritual reality with many meanings. Shambhala’s physical reality is only one of its aspects and can only be reached by those with appropriate karma.
