The Continent



The world consistes of a main continent and some islands floating in the middle of the universe, supported on the back of four Holy Beasts (JAPAN is supported by a fifth Holy Beast from inside). Whenever any of the Holy Beasts move, it causes earthquakes. In the picture above, two of the Holy Beasts are visible (an elephant and a turtle).

It's a geocentric world and has no oceans (only rivers, and a very big river). There are 365 days in a year, and 24 hours in a day.
