While the size of the presently-discovered Aloria is comparable to real-world Europe, the distinct landscapes, climates, cultures, and races that cover the landscape are indicative of the world's dramatic diversity and the fantastic sights one would encounter when traveling. The snowy peaks of Ellador contrast the endless sands of Farah'deen, and the Yang-Tzu Islands rival the Regalian Archipelago in size and beauty. Take a moment to read up on the incredible world of Aloria, and the fantastic lands within.
