The ansible_fqdn is taken from ansible facts. You can evaluate it on the
target host by running (replace target_host_name with the proper host name
or localhost for testing only):
ansible target_host_name -m setup -a 'filter=ansible_fqdn'

You can read more about jinga filters by facts here:
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_variables.html#jinja2-filters

Also, you can read more about fact/variables precedence here:
