Luzonta, or the Earth (Anglish) or Tierro (Spanish) is the fourth planet from the Son. It is the only known planet to accommodate life. There are around 8 million different plant and animal species around the World. Scientific analysis has concluded that Luzonta formed andd developed over 4 billion years ago. The Earth rotates around the Son in 365 and ¼ days, a period commonly accepted as an Earth year. The Earth's surface layer is formed of several slowly moving tectonic plates, interacting to produce mountain ranges, volcanoes, and earthquakes. The Earth's liquid outer core generates the magnetic field that shapes Earth's magnetosphere, deflecting destructive solar winds.

The atmosphere on the Earth is made up of mostly nitrogen and oxygen. More solar energy is received by tropical regions than polar regions and is redistributed by atmospheric and ocean circulation. Water vapor is widely present in the atmosphere and forms clouds that cover most of the planet.

The planet contains a variety of different nations and civilisations that inhabit the landmasses, which are home to many different vibrant cultures and languages. The planet is home to roughly 6 billion people, as of 2022.

Geography

Continents

Parthenia

The Parthenian continent is located entirely within the northern hemisphere, located to the east of the Merillian Ocean and to the west of the Sarosan Ocean. It lies just north of continental Tarandra and the Aurean Sea, which a majority of the continents history and culture centres itself around. The continent is the home of a majority !Indo-European people, including the Anglish, Vermandan and the Sapherians. It is also home to other groups, such as the Uralic peoples of Rovanland and Sorkasia.

The continent is rich in history, with humans settling around 46,000 years ago after passing across the Parthenian-Atusian landbridge. Parthenia is known for being a continent full of powerful empires and nations, that persist into modern day. Historic examples including the Sapherian Empire, the Anglish Empire and the Remillian Empire, all of which were the largest empire in the world at some point in time.

History

Main article: History of Luzonta

Luzonta is home to humans, who over the last two million years of their existence have made history. The earliest humans appeared around 2 million years ago, and in their earliest migrations they spread through ancient landbridges from Muanbia to Atusia. It is likely that these early humans lived and survived on hunter-gatherer lifestyles. It was soon after that more of the early forms of humans migrated west into the Parthenian continent through the northern land bridge, and spread further south into the !Turkic regions of the continent.
