World

Iastrimel is the world in which *Moemoea Cafe* and another *sister group* take place.

The planet (called "Thae") is composed of magical particles known as mana, once used as a basis for its civilization and magic. It is orbited by *Rem*, its moon, while the planet itself orbits around a star, *Rion*.

## Geography

Early in Iastrimel's history, all of its continents were separate and remained apart from each other, originally called "Iarothae", but eventually drifting together to merge into a large, unified landmass that experienced a continental drift over time, eventually resulting in the current geography. Originally, they were once separated by the vast oceans but the natural flow of time caused the continents to slowly merged together, forming the singular land of Iastrimel.

The world of Iastrimel is divided into eight continents: Regnis, Glacia, Aeris, Clipse, Fernis, Illume, Pulvis and Ventis; all with their own cultures and mixture of races and theocracies.

One province exists outside these national realms: **Fiore**, an autonomous magical city located in southern Aeris that is solely inhabited by the largest population of Naturas. Though technically not considered a continent or separate from the landmass, **Dunberg** **Peninsula** is attached to Pulvi and connected to Nieben by the **Faltero Bridge** and **Iastrimel Railway.**

Additionally, there is the **Alteria Ocean**, located between Fernis and Pulvi; **Danlline Strait**, located near Breien; **Nandine Lake**, a lake found by Albrun and Launflo; **Alberian Sea,** located near Monville; **Caspion Ocean**, located west of Glacia; **Quisabi Ocean**, the ocean found encompassing the borders of Ventis and Illume; and **Raderria** **Ocean**, located south of Pulvi and Aeris.

## Calendar

Iastrimel uses a calendar similar to the Gregorian Calendar but can be further explained in detail. One day on Iasrimel lasts 24 hours. One week on Iastrimel lasts seven days. Their names, in order, are as follows:

* **Salamanderday** (Monday)
* **Lunaday** (Tuesday)
* **Wispday** (Wednesday)
* **Undindeday** (Friday)
* **Sylphday** (Saturday)

After Sylphday, a new week begins with Oreaday again. Each month has either 30-31 days except for solstices and leap years. The yearly calendar consists of twelve months, still following the standard calendar. Their names, in order, are as follows:

* **Salamander Rem** (February)
* **Luna Rem** (March)
* **Wisp Rem** (April)
* **Gnome Rem** (May)
* **Sylph Remerion** (July)
* **Dryad Remerion** (August)
* **Salamander Remerion** (September)
* **Wisp Remerion** (November)
* **Shade Remerion** (December)

After a full cycle of twelve months, one Iastrimelean year ends and another begins. The total amount of days in a year on Iastrimel is 365.

## Trivia

* The days of the week in Iastrimel are related to the names used for days in most European languages, notably the Romance and Germanic languages. The relevant aggregate sentences match in elemental or thematic association with the Roman deities used to name the days in the Romance languages, and likewise with the Norse deities present in the naming of days for English and similar tongues.
