World of The Legend of Zelda

The  World of The Legend of Zelda is the world in which The Legend of Zelda series takes place. Some games, and the material released with them such as the manuals, evasively call this world Hyrule. Though more often this name is reserved specifically for the country of Hyrule.. Most people of this world simply refer to it as "the world" instead of by a proper name. It was created by the Golden Goddesses

Magical Laws
The world has its own set of magical laws, all of which were created by Nayru.

Known Areas
The world has the following known areas.

Hyrule
 is the kingdom where most of the games within The Legend of Zelda series take place, the sole exceptions being Link's Awakening, Majora's Mask, Oracles of Ages, Oracles of Seasons and Spirit Tracks. It is characterized by being surrounded by mountains. Prior to The Wind Waker, Old Hyrule was flooded and replaced by the Great Sea, upon which The Wind Waker takes place. Ganondorf attempts to unflood Hyrule through the use of the Triforce so that he can rule it, however, Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule gets to Triforce first and wishes for the destruction of Old Hyrule and hope for a better future instead.

New Hyrule
 is the successor nation founded by Tetra 100 years prior to Spirit Tracks, and is where it takes place. It is a place untouched by the flood that destroyed Old Hyrule.

Great Sea
The Great Sea is an ocean that had been near Old Hyrule, and borders the southern and western edge of New Hyrule, and possibly the same sea that borders Labrynna and Holodrum. When Old Hyrule was flooded, it became part of the Great Sea.

World of the Ocean King
The World of the Ocean King is, similarly to Termina, a parallel dimension of the Great Sea. It is smaller than the Great Sea and is full of different islands. It is ruled by the Ocean King.

Koholint Island
Koholint Island is an island which existed only in the mind of the Wind Fish. Though it drew Link into it, and later released him, in an ocean supposedly north of Old Hyrule.

Labrynna
Labrynna is a nation far away from Old Hyrule. It is has large oceans and a vast mountain range to its west.

Holodrum
Holodrum is another nation that is located far from Old Hyrule. It has a large amount of flat land, with a large mountain range in the north.

Ordona
Ordona is an independent province, found immediately south of Old Hyrule. Despite its proximity, it's not considered to be a part of Old Hyrule. However, the province provides its northern neighbor with many of its agricultural products, including pumpkins, cheese, and milk. Despite not being a part of Old Hyrule, Ordona Province is watched over by one of the four, Light Spirits known as Ordona. While the remaining Light Spirits, Farore, Eldin, and Lanayru, reside over the three provinces found in Old Hyrule.

Subrosia
Subrosia is a land located underground directly beneath Holodrum. Most of it is melted and filled with lava.

Termina is strongly indicated to be Old Hyrule in a parallel dimension. It has a large field in the center, a large ocean in the east, mountains to the north, a swamp to the south, and a desolate canyon to the east.

Koridai
Koridai is an island that is separate from Hyrule. It is very mountainous and very desolate.
