Main continent
Some people on the central continent think of themselves as the most important people in the world, so they never bothered to give their own continent a name. It is simply The Continent. For the purposes of clarity, The Discworld Companion and various official websites and adverts in English list this continent as "The (Unnamed) Continent"; it is also sometimes listed as "The Nameless Continent" or "the Central Continent".
It stretches from Hergen and Gonim turnwise to Kythia widdershins and from Ecalpon {over the hub and close to the Wall of the Agatean Empire} to Brindisi rimward.
The main continent contains regions known as:
- The Hub
- The Octarine Grass Country
- The Ramtops
- The Sto Plains
- Überwald
- The fringes, including those mentioned above, and NoThingfjord, Genua, and others.
Separated from the Counterweight continent semi-permannt ice flows and frozen sea by Ecalpon, the continent is geologically contiguous with the continent of Klatch. However people always think of that as a separate continent, much as Europe and Asia are often thought of as separate continents on the Roundworld. The main continent and the Klatchian continent together almost landlock the Circle Sea.
