    I'd love to see snow everywhere, it's so beautiful!

    Although, I'm not convinced Eorzea is in the north hemisphere, the Photoshop in the Reddit topic Celliera provided seems hell-bent on being white-european-centrist than to prove anything. Also, there isn't any hot deserts in Europe.

    Our in-game world map has
    the equator line seems to cross Eorzea above the Black Shroud.

    But we don't know if the horizontal axis is well represented in the world map., or even known to Eorzeans.
    Oh I'll bite... it was determined back in this old thread on the 1.0 forum over a decade ago (and as Celliera pointed out, just go to the Moon and look up at Etheirys Hydaelyn above - the Three Great Contintents (of which Eorzea is a part), are in the 'northern' or upper part of the planet, as is Tural and the Sharlayan islands. The southern hemisphere or lower part of Hydaelyn is mostly empty save for Meracydia (the large wedge shaped continent, which is a rough amalgam of Australia and Africa), and the South Sea Islands chains (which are more like Hawaii and other Pacific islands).

    Of course there was some discussion in that thread about perspective being entirelly subjective, but unless something was mentioned in the lorebooks (which I do not possess), I still hold that determination as correct. I am totally happy to be proven wrong though!
