I'd just like to fix this, because translation errors proliferating like this is kinda annoying. :P Eorzea is not a continent, it's a cultural region (I believe the exact Japanese word used was 'cultural sphere'). Since the original report appears to be gone I can't prove this from the same source, but the Japanese clearly stated it, and I think even the other versions had it translated right. It's just the English one that screwed up. There's a thread concerning the continent/region thing where I think I might have quoted some of it if you need more.

Figured you'd have caught it, but apparently not? In the bit above you're identifying Eorzea as two things, a region consisting of a continent and its surrounding islands as well as a continent by itself. The continent is Aldenard as the quote says. :P The remaining two continents were identified with the ARR site, being Ilsabard and Othard.
