Greetings fellow nerds!

Initialy i just wanted to answer on a post, which asked about the world size of Elyria. Somehow, my post escalated a bit beyond the comparison to Skyrims map, so i thought i might could open a new thread for this, as well. It´s just a simple overview, tho.

I put some reference-links behind some numbers, greatly based on what can be found in CoE-Wiki, which in turn is based on official references. Also, these numbers are hypothetical and don´t take domain distribution, watersurfaces, subterranean or other potential areas and factors into account. It may vary over time to some degree, but should give a kind of impression about the size. Corrections, constructive critics and suggestions for additions are welcome.

edit: To get closer to a more accurate approximation of a potential landmass, assuming Elyrian oceansurface to be about 30% of the total map area, i added resulting values behind the initial calculations: estimated landmass modification (eLM; rounded).

Fun With Numbers
