* '''Queáten''' lies mostly in the northern hemisphere, between Púríton and Márusúturon, but it is not a single continental landmass, being a large island with lots of smaller ones around it. Chlouvānem people call it just "eastern islands" (''nalejñuñci lanāye''), and consider it a part of ''Jahībušanā'' - the part of western-defined Márusúturon comprising the Chlouvānem heartlands and the Far East, just west of Queáten. | * '''Queáten''' lies mostly in the northern hemisphere, between Púríton and Márusúturon, but it is not a single continental landmass, being a large island with lots of smaller ones around it.

''Úrodováro'') lies mostly on the same continental plate as Evandor/Márusúturon, from which it is divided by skerry-filled straits, but it is usually considered a different continent first of all for its sheer size - even if more than half of it is tundra or, most commonly, ice cap - and also because it is the only "continent" which is not mainly populated by humans (apart from really small settlements on some coasts) but by orcs. Its northern coast is also the northernmost land on the planet, reaching over 84ºN. | ||
