Pathfinder Chronicles (2/?)

(This is part of a series of posts reviewing the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting.)

Chapter 2 of the PCCS, somewhat misleadingly titled The Inner Sea, is the largest single chapter, accounting for 100 of the 256 pages of the book.

First, the short, short version: Inner Sea = Mediterranean; Avistan = Europe; Garund = Africa; the Suez is open.

This glosses over a lot, of course. The PCCS is a kitchen-sink setting, and after a bit of thought one might realize that it has to be, for compelling real-world reasons: it's Paizo's only setting, so everything they do has to fit into it. (An amusing practical effect of this is that, if you find yourself stranded on Golarion, there are at least three different ways in-setting to potentially get back to Earth. Your safest bet is probably Baba Yaga, though, which should tell you something.)

Today's anime references: in the Mwangi Expanse is located a ruin by the name of Nagisa, near the Fountain of Tabris. Near the city of Jaha are the Ruins of Seele. Also, to the south, in the Bandu Hills, is an undescribed place by the name of Eraclea Dio (presumably after Dio Eraclea).

The ruins labeled Spiro Spero are unrelated.
