| ====Siphost====
| |
| The northern island of Audonia.
| |
|
| |
| Siphost emerged from antiquity as the poorest portion of Audonia as most major trade routes to the continent were far to its south. Despite not enjoying the wealth of the rest of the continent, Siphost retained a strong martial character which allowed it to remain independent of the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] until the middle portion of the 8th century.

| ====Daria====
| |
| The southeastern island of Audonia.
| |
|
| |
| Daria is considered to be a {{wp|melting pot}} of influences from the rest of Audonia and [[Alshar]], with which it shares much of its history and some of its culture.
| |
| ====XXX====
| |
| The southwestern island of Audonia.
| |
|
| |
| This subcontinent is closely associated with {{wp|Islam}}, as the two holiest cities in that religion - as well as its historical heartland - exist here. Consequently, most of the nations on this subcontinent are large Muslim majority countries. [[Audonian Christianity]] also originated here with a minority of countries having bare Christian majorities, though most countries have at least a pre-Islamic Audonian Christian heritage.

| The Middle seas region, also known as the Middle seas, or the Audonio-Alshari Intercontinental Cultural and Economic Interface Zone (AAICEIZ, pronounced eye-kayz), is the areas of eastern [[Audonia]] (eastern [[Audonia#Siphost|Siphost]] and [[Audonia#Daria|Daria]]) and western [[Alshar]] around the [[Aab-e-Farus]] and the [[Sea of Kandahar]]. It is so named because of the two seas it contains surrounded by the continental landmasses of [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]], the [[Aab-e-Farus]] and the [[Sea of Kandahar]]. | | The Middle seas region, also known as the Middle seas, or the Audonio-Alshari Intercontinental Cultural and Economic Interface Zone (AAICEIZ, pronounced eye-kayz), is the areas around the [[Aab-e-Farus]].
