'''Tarephia''' is a continent mostly in the eastern hemisphere.  It is almost evenly divided between the northern and southern hemispheres, and a smaller portion lies in the western hemisphere.  To the north across the [[Strait of Abren]] is the continent of [[Uletha]].  In the east, the [[Sea of Uthyra]] separates Tarephia from the [[Liberan Peninsula]].  To the southeast is the [[Asperic Ocean]], and to the south across the [[Strait of Lyc]] is [[Antarephia]].  The [[Hesperic Ocean]] lies to the west.

Much of the continent lies in the tropics and subtropics.
== Geography ==
[[File:Tarephia2019.png|450px|thumb|right|Tarephian political map as of July 2019. Countries marked with red, are members of the [[TCC]].]]

Deserts dominate the north of Tarephia.  The Great Helion Desert is one of the largest deserts on the continent.  To the northeast is the [[Serion Desert]] and the smaller Foare Desert.  With the exception of the river that flows into the Ilemian Sea, most of the interior north is arid.

Equatorial Tarephia and southern Tarephia are more lush; rainforests and savannas cover much of the south.
