Question I have been shy to ask... is Eorzea the planet, or is it a continent?

[Lienn]

Nop. But it's fun to compare the way ppl read stuff =P

[Fieros]

It's however you want to pronounce it. Everyone perceives things differently, does that make them wrong and you right or them right and you wrong?

There's always that one guy that butchers all the game terms and peoples names in vent. He's so hopeless everyone gave up trying to correct it and just cringe to themselves.

hmmmm.... isn't ala mihigo a continent?

Ala Mihgo is a city state from a region i forgot the name...the one closest to garlean empire

EDIT: Gyr Abania the region if i read it right...

Ala Mihgo is a city-state in the Gyr Abania region. A little bit northwest of Gridania. It's still a part of Aldenard/Eorzea.

Eorzea Map:
I think It was mentioned that there was a North Continent and East Continent mentioned too.

I used to pronounce Eorzea as 'nausea' without the N until a kind friend corrected me. >.<

...I have to wonder, where does all this mis-information about Eorzea being a continent come from? Eorzea is a big region. Asia, Europe, America, Eorzea. There's your comparison.

And to one of the above posters (yeah, I'm lazy), continents can't have big island areas separated from the main land by a big sea and still be called the same continent. Continents are continents. I think you should brush up on your geographical terms.
The main continent in Eorzea is Aldenard, and in addition there's a big island to the side called Vylbrand. The world is Hydaelin. There are also other continents in the world, but their names are unknown as far as I remember (although some names of the countries are known). The Garlean Empire is a hugely bloated country off on the continent to the north-east.

Wow so much wrong in the above post. When was the last time you took a geography class?

Asia and Europe? Both continents!

There are seven: North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and Antarctica. How do you not know this?



Also, Japan? It's an island, a part of the CONTINENT OF ASIA.
Hawaii, an island belonging to the country of USA, so technically a part of the CONTINENT OF NORTH AMERICA.


Both of your arguments are just so wrong and completely invalid, I weep for the intelligence of the average person.



tldr: Eorzea is a continent, and that includes the island of Vylbrand.

Eorzea is the home land for the Elezen the other 4 race came from islands around the world.
