Portal:Geography

Westeros: Located in the far west of the known world, Westeros extends southwards from the northern polar icecap for approximately 3,000 miles. The Wall, a colossal fortification which stretches for 300 miles, separates the lands north of the Wall from the Seven Kingdoms, a political entity that unifies the rest of the continent. It is divided into nine constituent regions.

Regions: North of the Wall · The North · The Riverlands · The Vale · The Iron Islands · The Westerlands · The Reach · The Crownlands · The Stormlands · Dorne.

Essos: Separated from Westeros by the narrow sea, Essos extends eastwards for many thousands of miles. It is larger than Westeros but less densely populated. The western edge of the continent is controlled by the nine Free Cities, whilst the city-states of Slaver's Bay are located in the south-central region. Much of the continental interior known as the Dothraki Sea is ruled by the tribal warriors known as the Dothraki. Further east is Qarth and the fabled Jade Sea. Western and eastern Essos are separated by the Bone Mountains, east of which are Yi Ti, legendary Asshai and the forbidding Shadow Lands.

Regions: Free Cities · Slaver's Bay · Dothraki Sea · Red Waste · Valyrian peninsula · Other.

Sothoryos: Relatively little known, Sothoryos is located south of Essos, on the far side of the Summer Sea. It is a large continent consisting of deserts and jungles. It is said to be a haven for plagues and dangerous animals, and has not been explored much beyond the northern coastal regions and the Basilisk Isles.

Regions: Naath · Isle of Tears · Basilisk Point
