Etymology
The continent has several widely used names. The most commonly used, "Alshar", descends from the Arabic word الشرق (lit. "east", "alshrq"). The term is thought to have originated with Occidental explorers being sent to the continent east of Audonia, referred to the explorers simply as the "eastern land".
History
The continent is known as Ularie/Ularia in the Burgundian language, loosely meaning "the domain".
