# The World
The last bastion standing against Supay's decay
### **Axoma**
**Pawtato Land is a continent** that consists of one main island called ***Axoma*** and four smaller islands (for later expansions) which can be seen in the distance from the northern shore.
During the [Land Placement Process](/pawtato-land/gameplay/the-world/land-placement-process.md) Architects will be able to **place their Province, Estate or Land** on **Axoma,** which covers roughly **33 km²** of land area dedicated to initial gameplay.
The various biomes of Axoma are described in [Act I - The Great Divide](/pawtato-land/about-pawtato-land/lore/act-i-the-great-divide.md) of the Pawtato Land lore and include mountains, forests, meadows, lakes, rivers and a desert where the **Great Divide** took place.
Due to the immense size of the world, it is split in 100 so called **Quadrants**, which are refered to via a simple coordinate system of letters and numbers.
### Quadrant View
Diving into a Quadrant on the map reveals a bountiful world where the **Provinces** and **Estates** of Architects can be discovered.
Also simple **Land Plots** hold crucial importance, as [Quests](/pawtato-land/gameplay/adventure/quests.md) and [Combat Encounters](/pawtato-land/gameplay/adventure/combat-encounters.md) can appear at any time. Next to shifting environments, many points of interest like caves and ruins wait to be explored.
