Ok I've been wondering this for a long time now and cannot figure it out so I thought I'd take it to the forums!

The Continent is called Aldemard.
The Land is called Eorzea.
The World is called Hydaelen.

What the heck is the difference between the Land and the Continent. Surely they are the same thing?

Is anyone else confused by this?
Is anyone able to shed some light on this epic riddle!?

Kind Regards,

Mossero
