Faerûn

A major continent on the planet of Toril.
The word "Faerûn" is a modified version of "Faerie", the name of the homeland of ancient elves.
This is an irregular inland sea that keeps the interior lands fertile, connecting the west and east regions of Faerûn and serving as a major trade route for many of the bordering nations.
Sub-arctic extremes chill its northern reaches, where ice sheets like the Great Glacier dominate the landscape in blinding white. To the south are the equatorial jungles of Chult and the tropical coasts of Halruaa. It’s bordered on the west by the Trackless Sea and on the east by the Endless Wastes and the Hordelands that separate it from Kara-Tur"
