Sarpedon is a continent and geographic subregion located near the equator and prime meridian. It is bound by the Odoneru Ocean to the north, by the Sea of Istroya and Sea of Canete to the east, the Absurian Ocean to the south, and the Ocean of Cathay via the Polynesian Sea to the west. It is the third-largest continent, and also includes the subcontinent of Vallos.
Sarpedon covers an area of about 27,892,902 square kilometres (10,769,510 sq mi), about 22.1% of the world's land area and about 3.3% of its total surface. It is the third largest continent by area, following Crona and Alshar, and the third by population after Alshar and Levantia. In 2023, its population was estimated at 1.5 billion people in five independent states and nine dependencies.
Latin influences are strongest in the northern parts of the continent while indigenous and Alshari influences are relatively stronger in the south. Because of the history of colonialism, most northern and western Sarpedonians speak romance languages (e.g., Burgoignesc, Cartadanian, and Pelaxian) while central and eastern Sarpedonians predominantly speak Latin. The societies and states of Sarpedon commonly reflect Occidental traditions.

Religions
Sarpedon is very diverse when it comes to religions. Although the region doesn't boast the founding of any large religions, it has been the founding place of many sects since ancient times. Caphirian Catholicism is the largest present religion but other sects that originated there, such as Shia Islam and Samaritan Judaism, are also well represented. Christians, in general, represent more than half of Sarpedon's population. There are also other important minority religions like the Recepi Alevism and Nakoa worship in Takatta Loa.
