Urth is one of two astronomical objects in the Sular System of the Sombrero Galaxy in the Multiverse that is known to have liquid water on its surface, Urth being the only one that is known to host life. It is known that there are numerous planets in other star systems that feature intelligent life.
Etymology
The word Urth was adopted into Staynish in the 1st-2nd centuries AD after the Impelanzan word "Urtia". Urtia is the name given to "the place where life grows" in Tunseism, the official religion of the Impelanzan Empire, and it's an evolved form from the archaic terms "Hurtia" and "Hortia", which could be explained as the world conceived as a "hortus", an orchard where plants, and thus, life grows. This matches with the Tunseist conception of Urth "as the designed place by Tunsé for gods and all life beings to reside and grow".
Continents
There are five continents on Urth: Aurora, Arcturia, Concord, Gondwana, Novaris, Sempiterna, and Yasteria. The title of "continent" is given by convention rather than any scientific definition.
Continents
Yasteria is... It can be broken up into subcontinents: Yasteria Major, Yasteria Minor, Southeast Yasteria, Borea, and Itur. The last two are considered continents by some.
Major Landmasses
Alaria is the western half of Gondwana. Both landmasses are not connected by any land, but most see it as part of Gondwana, and therefore give it that name. [ citation needed ]
Oceans
Urth has five oceans: the Pacific Ocean, Concordian Ocean, Southern Ocean, and Packilvanian Ocean.
Species
Aurians, Elves, Dwarves, Felines, Humans, Nekomimi, Lupines, Lutrynes, Ursines, and Vulpines are the sentient species on Urth but Humans are the dominant species that with their genetic ancestry traced back to the Nekomimis and Elves.
