Tian Xia is their 'Asian fusion' continent, has a lot of different regions and governments all dreamt up by a very wide cast of writers in Asia, but most seem to be from Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Actually was gonna shout out the 2e Mwangi Expanse & Strength of Thousands before I saw your comment lol. Love the fantasy Africa analogue (big fan of the Anadi!) and how they avoided so many of the problems D&D's fantasy Africa analogue had in its portrayals. Haven't read anything on the east Asia stuff, looks dope though
