Farravonia is a geographic, cultural, and historical region encompassing most (or all) of the West Coast of Great Kirav.

Most of the region has a marine west coast climate, including areas of temperate rainforest along the coast and at some altitudes in the inland mountain ranges. Someof these littoral steam forests are home to the iconic Farravonian tree octopus. Bioclimatically, thermotypes of the region range from mesoboreal in Ixikéa to thermotemperate in Argévia, and ombrotypes range from subcontinental in some sheltered inland valleys to ultra-hyperoceanic along the offshore island chains.

The main languages of the Core Farravonian subregion are West Coast Marine Coscivian and Serradan Coscivian. A smattering of smaller languages, mostly belonging to either the Itaho-Atrassic or Transkiravian families, are also spoken in various parts of the region. Many ethnic Kir and other Kiravic speakers migrated to the region during the West Kiravian Silver Rush.

Central Farravonia, particularly the Serradan Valley that runs north-to-south across all of its constituent provinces, contains Kiravia's Rosary Belt, known for its exceptionally high degree of Coscivian-Rite Catholic devotion and the seats of major Catholic orders and other institutions, reflecting a culture instilled during the Third Evangelisation of Kirav.

The Farravonian Counterrevolution occurred, as one might reasonably infer, in Farravonia.
