Lehi-Nephi
In the Book of Mormon, the land of Lehi -Nephi( also referred to as the land of Nephi) is the homeland of the Nephites in the early times of the Book of Mormon.
The land is later conquered by the Lamanites, and the remaining Nephites flee to the land of Zarahemla, home of the Mulekites.
In later years, an expedition under Zeniff returns to Lehi-Nephi to recolonize the area, and at first, the Lamanites allow them to settle.
Zeniff, his son Noah, and Noah's son Limhi rule as kings over their people in the land of Lehi -Nephi.
Ultimately the Nephite settlers leave the land of Nephi because of Lamanite oppression.
They are led by Ammon, the leader of a party sent by king Mosiah son of king Benjamin to learn the fate of Zeniff's group.
They return to Zarahemla as refugees.
According to the Book of Mormon, the land of Nephi was south of and at higher elevation than Zarahemla.
A strip of wilderness running east and west divided the land of Nephi from the land of Zarahemla.
In the 1st century BC, the lands of Nephi and Zarahemla were bordered on the east and on the west by bodies of water that were called respectively" the east sea" and" the west sea."
There is no unequivocal indication in the Book of Mormon that the seas were intended to represent oceans, but the term" lake" is not used in the Book of Mormon to describe an inland body of water, and a parallel is seen between the American Promised Land of the Book of Mormon and the Biblical Promised Land, which is bordered by inland seas.
The book of Mosiah in the Book of Mormon tells of a search party that was sent out from the land of Nephi to find the land of Zarahemla.
Traveling northward in" a land among many waters," in the general vicinity of the Book of Mormon land Cumorah, the search party mistakenly supposes that it has found the land of Zarahemla.

Land of Antionum
According to The Book of Mormon, the land of Antionum was located east of the River Sidon and east of Zarahemla, south of the land of Jershon, and north of the wilderness which was full of the Lamanites and which probably included the land of Siron.
Antionum also bordered on the seashore, apparently to the east of the land.
The name Antionum was given the land by the Zoramites who gathered and settled the area.
When Alma and his brethren went to the land to preach to the Zoramites they were surprised to find that the Zoramites had built synagogues and astonished at their unusual form of worship.
Those who believed in the words of Alma and his missionary companions were cast out of the land and went north to the land of Jershon to live among the people of Ammon, the Lamanite converts.
The Zoramites eventually allied with the Lamanites in an attempt to overthrow the Nephite government( as had done Amlici).
The combined Zoramite/ Lamanite army gathered in the land Antionum as the Nephites gathered in the land of Jershon.
In large part due to inferior defensive technology, the Lamanites were afraid to face the Nephites at that juncture, so they departed the land of Antionum into the wilderness, toward the land of Manti where a battle ensued.
The hill Onidah was located in the land of Antionum and was the site where Alma and Amulek taught the Zoramite poor.
