Earth Land

'''Trái đất (ア ー ス ラ ン ド ASU Rando) is one of those thế giới trong Fairy Tail Universe. '''

Ishgar
The eastern part of Earth Land is occupied by a very large peninsula called Ishgar (大陸, イシュガル, Ishugaru), that around is surrounded by scattered isles of differing sizes; the peninsula itself is linked to the mainland, whose geography is mainly unknown.

The territory seems to be split into several countries:
 * The Kingdom of Fiore, occupying a smaller, secondary peninsula sprouting from the main one, to the west. "Fiore" is Italian for "flower".
 * The Land of Isvan, a country located west to Fiore.
 * The Principality of Veronica, a small country located in the mountains north to Fiore.
 * The country of Seven, occupying a peninsula northeast of Fiore.
 * The country of Bosco, located east of Fiore. It is Italian for "Forest".
 * The country of Iceberg, located to the east of Seven, northeast of Bosco, north of Joya, northwest of Bellum and west of the Pergrande Kingdom.
 * The country of Stella, located to the east of Bosco, the north of Iceberg and the southwest of Joya.
 * The country of Minstrel, located to the southeast of Fiore, separated from it by a large gulf with an island in its center.
 * The country of Midi, located on a small peninsula south of Minstrel.
 * The country of Desierto, a large region located east of Minstrel. "Desierto" is Spanish for "Desert".
 * The country of Joya, located north of Desierto. "Joya" is Spanish for "Jewel".
 * The country of Bellum, located east of Desierto, on the eastern shore of the large lake separating it from Desierto and Joya. Bellum is Latin for War.
 * The country of Sin, located on a peninsula in the southern part of the continent.
 * The island of Caelum, located in the sea not far from Minstrel's western shores. "Caelum" is Latin for Sky.
 * The island of Enca, located south of Sin.
 * The Pergrande Kingdom, the largest country, located in the easternmost part of the peninsula, linking it to the mainland. "Grande" is Italian, Spanish, French, and Portuguese for "Big".

Alakitasia
The western continent of Earth Land is called Alakitasia (西の大陸, アラキタシア, Arakitashia) which is much more monolithic compared to Ishgar, with few islands.

The only country that has been mentioned so far is a military-run Alvarez Empire, that once attempted to invade Ishgar in X781.

Races
There is a variety of races inhabiting Earth Land:
 * Human: The main race in Earth Land.
 * Dragon: A rare, large and immensely powerful reptilian creature. They are known to be very intelligent, and, in some cases, to appreciate humans, sometimes taking them under their protection and teaching them Dragon Slayer Magic.
 * Exceed: Anthropomorphous talking cats capable of sprouting wings and flying through the use of the Magic Aera. They hail from Edolas, a dimension parallel to Earth Land, and they were all transported to the latter by interdimensional Anima portals.
 * Vulcan: Large creatures reminiscent of gorillas with a massive horn topping their heads; they are capable of understanding human language and speaking a rudimentary form of it. They employ Take Over Magic to take the form of humans. They are known to reside on Mt. Hakobe, in the Kingdom of Fiore.
 * Hane-Sakana: A rare species of fish gifted with wings for flight that is capable of breathing air.

Magic
Magic (魔法, Mahō) in Earth Land is located inside the body of living organisms. In some races, Magic occurs in all individuals, but only 10% of humankind uses it. Magic can be divided into two main classifications:


 * Caster Magic (キャスターマジック Kyasutā Majikku): It is Magic which, as the name suggests, is generated and expelled from the caster's body, as opposed to Magic done through the use of a weapon or outside source.


 * Holder Magic (ホルダーのマジック Horudā Majikku); It is Magic that requires a Mage to employ an external source to be produced.

Trivia

 * Bosco is first mentioned in Chapter 1 by Bora. Apparently there is a slave trade in this country.
 * Most of the countries in Earth Land are randomly named. As such, Hiro Mashima has stated that he will try to avoid the story's progress to these countries.
