This is a quick reference guide to some of the major countries, states and cities of this world. It is not intended as a complete atlas; countless smaller nations, territories and settlements exist beyond those listed here. Use this page to orient yourself when names and places appear across stories, campaigns and other records.

For ease of reference, major locations also include an Earth comparison showing the country, region or city in our own reality that they most closely resemble. These comparisons are intended as orientation only: the places themselves have their own histories, cultures, politics and development, and should not be understood as exact alternate versions of their Earth counterparts.

Gameplay note: the Avaran names listed here are the canonical names used for deeper worldbuilding and continuity across the setting. During a Ravenlake tabletop campaign, the Game Master or players may occasionally use the closest Earth equivalent — for example, “the United States” rather than “the Vardane Federation” — simply to keep play clear and accessible. This can be understood as a translation convention for the purposes of the game rather than the literal terminology used by people within Avara.
