I also particularly liked the terms and sayings used, in reference to us as Eorzeans, as well as the term East and Far East. "The East" can indeed be interchangeable with "The Far East," and I would argue that it is a different place to Othard, as Othard is currently under Garlean rule so I would assume they would not worship gods. There is also a line delivered by the Far Eastern ambassador which indicates that they may worship the Twelve, too, or are at least very aware of them, which I found conflicting to my image of the Far East.
