World of Hunter × Hunter

The known world

The fictional World of Hunter × Hunter is composed of the ocean and the 6 continents which look similar to those of the real world but have different locations. There are 250 countries in the world. Only two continents are known by name so far: Yorbian and Azian continents. In reality, the "ocean" where these continents are is a great lake in the Dark Continent called Lake Mobius.

Languages and Writing Systems

There are at least 200 languages in the world, as revealed by the Beatle-07 cell phone's technical specifications. Some of them are:

• a common language seemingly spoken in the majority of countries, which utilizes a fictional writing system;
• a language identical to real-life English, including its writing system. It is widespread enough for featuring on signs inside the Black Whale as a second language;
• a language identical to real-life Japanese, including its writing system, spoken in Jappon;
  • the same language might have been used in the signboard of a dojo;
• the language spoken by the Kurta Clan in the Lukso Province;
• Feitan's mother tongue;
• a language spoken in the Kakin Empire, or an alternative writing system;
• a language spoken in NGL (unverified).

Trivia

• The world of Hunter × Hunter looks like a map of Earth, but with the various continents tilted and relocated.
  • Real world locations that are missing include Sri Lanka, Greenland, Iceland, Central America, and Antarctica.
  • Despite the rearranged pattern of the continents, in Chapter 56 a regular world map centered on Japan and the Pacific Ocean can be seen.
• The common language is substantially the same as Japanese in terms of grammar, the only difference being the writing system.
