Etymology

The name Aravala Is not used as name for the Planet, but the local inhabitants call it simply as planet earth, or Maa , Maapallo In Evoan language. Aravala Is included as a name, to separate it from the world of the viewer. The Term Aravala appear in Evoan Religious concepts as Otherworldly afterlife, where the Gods and spirits dwells, and is in some sources described to include alternate worlds, therefore is been chosen to be used as the describing and Defining term when used in our world.

Geography

Main article: Geography of Aravala, Aravala

Map of Aravala

Aravala winkel-tripel

Map of Aravala shown in Winkel-Tripel projection. Alternate projection (equirectangular) can be seen here: media:Aravala_english.png

The shape of Aravala is nearly spherical. There is a small flattening at the poles and equatorial bulge around the equator due to Aravala's rotation, therefore, a better approximation of Aravala's shape is an oblate spheroid, whose equatorial diameter is 43 kilometres (27 mi) larger than the Geographical pole-to-pole diameter.

The average diameter of the reference spheroid is 12,742 kilometres (7,918 mi). Local topography deviates from this idealized spheroid, although on a global scale these deviations are small compared to Aravala's radius: the maximum deviation of only 0.17% is at the Oipaal Trench (10,945 metres or 35,909 feet below local sea level), In geodesy, the exact shape that Aravala's oceans would adopt in the absence of land and perturbations such as tides and winds is called the geoid. More precisely, the geoid is the surface of gravitational equipotential at mean sea level are water deviations from MSL, analogous to land topography.

Plate tectonics

Aravala plate teutonics

The Aravala's litosphere is divided into 10 major tectonic plates, which movements and directions are visualized in this simplified graph. In Addition many minor plates exist. Where the plates meet, their relative motion determines the type of boundary: convergent, divergent, or transform. Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic trench formation occur along these plate boundaries (or faults). The relative movement of the plates typically ranges from zero to 100 mm annually. Due to the International Geopolitical and ideological differences, the scientific community has not reached in conclusion in many terms, including naming the major tectonic plates. In here is presented the KaMaY Kansainvälinen Maantieteellinen Yhteisö - International Geographic Society - from the Socialistic Blocs scientific community's classification of the plates:

  1. The Last Ocean plate, which moves away from Saa's plate and towards the Uusimaa and Anadak plates
  2. Saa's Plate, moving towards the converging Rim and Old World plate that causes the great mountain formations in the center of the Old Continent
  3. Rim's Plate
  4. Old Continent Plate, or Eastern Plate
  5. Mahathamalan Plate
  6. Rovintala's Plate
  7. Silver Plate
  8. Uusimaa's Plate

Climate

Köppen Climate classification of Aravala

The climate model map of Aravala showing the Köppen climate classification regions of Aravala. The Köppen climate classification scheme divides climates into five main climate groups: A (tropical), B (dry), C (temperate), D (continental), and E (polar).

Summers are defined as the 6-month period that is warmer either from April–September and/or October–March while winter is the 6-month period that is cooler. Listed here are those major climate types that are present in the map. The local variation varies considerably.

  • Cfb - Temperate oceanic climate
  • Cfc - Sub-polar oceanic climate
  • Cwa - Monsoon inflicted humid subtropical climate
  • Cwb - Subtropical highland climate or Monsoon-influenced temperate oceanic climate
