Since orcish pirates first appeared on west-legonian coasts, vikings and other adventurers rushes to discover a new unknown continent to expand power, poverty and space. The first official "discovery" by modern kingdoms happened in the year 0 n.C. . When a viking expedition of Captain Haldir reached the coast of the orclands. But legends tell, that also other humans settled in the new world centuries ago. Nobody has ever heard about them again, so it's unknown if there are native human kingdoms. Additional, the Fire Elven tribe settled on the eastern continent after being banished from their homeland.

Hazraddin eternos
Smaller than the desert of Ark'tohl but a big step less comfortable, hazraddin eterno is the hottest place of Legonia and marks the border between the plains and oriental cultures. Along the desert's begin, some Anuban nomads, Tsinka and Cattull are living. Also many tombs and forgotten realms of the old empire can be found, so it's possible that the desert had expanded after the demongod war.
The Multhis
The Multhis is a legendary land which got forgotten over the centuries. It's assumed to exist or existed in or near the desert Harraddin eternos and probably got corrupted by evil forces in the Demongod war. According the few scriptures mentioning this lost land, the human tribe of Anubans and some old troll species are supposed to live there in an own kindgom. Today, the Multhis is nothing else than a rumour because nobody has seen it for centuries.
Insaani land
The fruitful, subtropical to tropical landscape aside the Nereusian sea and Ifrit's grave is place for all main settlements of Insaani culture today and were possible center of the old empire. While Muckar tribes are living mostly in the palmforests and jungles, the Insaani of the Kalifate Hatrapedi share farming spaces. The climate changes because of a summer and a winter monsoon.
Therian Peninsula
The mediterran climate made the eastern part well populated since insaani survivours escaped from the demongod war to the east. The mountainous regions owns additional unique races and creatures like Harpies, the many islands are mostly undiscovered.
Mojache
Before the big apocalypse of the eastern continent, the island of Mojache was bound to insaani land, today the whole landscape, which is covered with rainforests, lagunes or mountains is controlled by Atlaua, Ack-Ack or wild biests. Also some dinosaurs can be found. The northern centre holds the still-active vulcano Mount Thalon.
