Internationally known as the Sea of Capelan, named after a [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] explorer Samuel-Emmanuel Brouage de Capelan who was the first [[Occidental civilization|occidental]] to chart the northern [[Alshar]]i coast. The ''Cart de Capelan'' was first published in [[1527]]. In retrospect it was a terrible map, it was much less accurate than those created by explorers from the Caliphate. | Internationally known as the Sea of Capelan, named after a [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] explorer Samuel-Emmanuel Brouage de Capelan who was the first [[Occidental civilization|occidental]] to chart the northern [[Alshar]]i coast.

Around [[1570]] it is noted that maps sold under the name ''Cart de Capelan'' appeared to be Odoniyyad maps with Latin annotations, but with sea monsters and dragons, because they are [Occidental civilization|occidentals]]. | |||
In the Danehonger language, the sea is called Nuoklun, which roughly translates to the Great Water. | |||
