The Great Expanse lies north of High Wood Country and the Tribe Steppes. This region is bordered by three distinct seas: to the west lies Nielalroch, to the northeast is Edhelviel, and to the northwest is Nautrek. The northwestern coastlines of the Great Expanse are shrouded in a near-perpetual fog, a phenomenon attributed to the convergence of Edhelviel's warm waters and the frigid seas of Nautrek.
Before the arrival of the Gear Monument, the Great Expanse was a wild, untamed region comprising expansive plains, parched deserts, verdant savannahs, and frozen tundras. This vast territory largely lacked the presence of advanced humanoid civilizations. However, this dynamic shifted with the Gear Monument's production of artificial beings, such as the maugs and Warforged. Over time, these living constructs proliferated, ultimately coming to command a dominant presence across the Great Expanse.
In addition to the living constructs, Thri-kreen can be encountered in sizeable numbers throughout this locale. Along the northern coasts of the Great Expanse stretch undulating hills and lush rainforests. These northern lands harbor halfling realms, chiefly concentrated within the region known as the Seven Vales of the Hairfoots.
The subterranean realm beneath the expansive terrain is known as Uddring.
