The Central World ｢基軸世界, kijiku sekai, lit. "Central Axis World"｣ is the universe in which the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime series primarily takes place. It houses at least 1.3 Billion sentient lifeforms.
Background[]
The Original World out of the many worlds created by Veldanava. It's a Chaos World that has the mixed properties of both a Material World and a Spiritual World. Many different objects and beings from other universes often find themselves winding up in the Central World by chance, but getting out is a substantially more difficult task with the notable exception of the Elemental Realm and Daemon Realm, which have "gates" going to and from.
Main Planet[]
Continents[]
Magic Continent[]
The Magic Continent ｢魔大陸, ma tairiku｣ is the central continent where most of the series events take place. On the far west, there are the "Barren Lands", a great expanse of inhospitable sandy desert contaminated with magicule radiations where the ancient ruin of 'Soma' is located and the territory of Demon Lord Dagruel, on its border lies the Holy Empire of Lubelius, a rich land and the territory of Demon Lord Luminous Valentine as well as the home of the Western Holy Church.
In the center of the continent lies a great collection of countries collectively referred to as the 'Western Nations', as well as the Jura Forest which contains the Jura-Tempest Federation and is the abode of Veldora. Both are considered the territory of Demon Lord Rimuru, although he's only publicly the ruler of the Tempest Federation. There's also the 'Great Canaat Mountains' to the north, a great expanse of mountains ruled on the surface by the Dragon lords who reside in the 'Dragon Roost' at the peak of the tallest mountain, and ruled underground by the Armed Nation of Dwargon. And at the southern border of Jura Forest is the Sorcerous Dynasty of Sarion, a collection of 13 elven states that swear allegiance to their divine emperor Elmesia El Ru Sarion, but otherwise act independently to each other. Its "capital" is the state of Elmin where the emperor and her family reside.
In the eastern border of the Jura Forest lies a collection of Demi-human and Majin populated states collectively the territory of Demon Lord Milim Nava. Its 'Capital' is the unnamed city currently under construction at the site of the former capital of the Beast Kingdom of Eurazania. And finally to the far east lies the Eastern Empire, an expansionist empire made up of over 100 cities with a population of over eight hundred million people. In the empire, people of all races are accepted without prejudice as long as they submit themselves to the emperor and anybody can obtain political power by joining the military. It is a land of "might makes right," ruled by its eternal emperor Rudra Nam Ul Nasca. Its capital is called 'Nasca' and is located next to a Great Holy Mountain said to house the empire's guardian deity, Velgrynd.
Ice Continent[]
The Ice Continent ｢氷土の大陸, kōri tsuchi no tairiku｣ is the northern continent as well as the domain of the first Demon Lord, Guy Crimson. Its surface is constantly under a thick layer of permafrost and harsh weather due to Velzard's aura, making it inhospitable to all but the strongest of living beings. The only known settlement is the Frost Palace, where Guy and Velzard, as well as a massive army of daemons under the leadership of Rain and Misery, call home.
El Dorado[]
El Dorado ｢黄金郷 エル・ドラード, ōgonkyō eru dorado｣ is the southwest continent singlehandedly ruled by Demon Lord Leon Cromwell. It has a large and active supermassive volcano at its center that constantly spews out ash and draws out large mineral deposits from deep under the surface, including gold, the source of El Dorado's income. The capital of El Dorado which resides besides a volcano, was also home to a "Hell Gate" managed by Jaune.
Ocean[]
Not much is known about the ocean or what resides in it aside from the fact any attempts to set sail are doomed to fail due to the presence of giant sea beasts that attack ships with their colossal bodies of ten meters.
Trivia[]
- Teenage otherworlders despise this world since it doesn't have the pop culture and technology of Earth. Children are less inclined to this; they are too young to be absorbed in such things.
- The Octagram effectively rules most of the Central World. Guy and Leon effectively own the two lesser continents while Rimuru, Luminous, Dagruel, and Milim have over half the main continent as their territory.
