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.

Map of Aravala

Map of Aravala shown in Winkel-Tripel projection.

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.
