==Physical Properties== Inhabitants believe that Innworld is flat due to the existence of the [[Edge of the World]].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/16/4-03-k/ Chapter 4.03 K]</ref> That one can sail south from one end of Chandrar in a straight line and arrive on the other end of the continent is attributed by inhabitants to an unknown magical effect. Wistram's Earthers have introduced the concept of a round world to its [Mages], but the ''theory'' didn't receive wide approval, despite measurements taken by mages all around the world that indicated to the Earthers that their assumption of a round planet is correct. However, it is confirmed by [[Zineryr|one of the Gnomes]] that the world is spherical, and the so-called edge is the location where part of the world was torn away during the war against the gods. Also, the world has [[Twin Moons|twin moons]], one blue and the other green, that wax and wane independently from each other, a single sun and either no actual equator or a weird one.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2019/04/09/6-06-d/ Chapter 6.06 D]</ref> Solar eclipses occur at least twice a year.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/11/19/9-65/ Chaptetr 9.65]</ref> When it is night-time in Izril, it is morning in Baleros and around noon in Chandrar.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/12/4-45/ Chapter 4.45]</ref> The surface area of the world has been estimated by Ryoka and later other [[Earthers]] to be three times that of Earth.<ref name="2.06" /> The enormous size of the continents supports this theory: [[Izril]], despite being considered the third-largest continent, was ''estimated'' by Ryoka to span 8000 miles from north to south,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/04/09/2-09/ Chapter 2.08]</ref> which combined with its width suggests a size comparable to Eurasia The sky is larger and vaster than Earth:'s The ''vivid blue infinity above her head [...] was different from the one she had seen all her life.''<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/07/30/1-02/ Chapter 1.02]</ref> This suggests at least a thicker atmosphere, or some other reason why there is more air between the sun and the ground. Another difference is that - at least in Liscor's late autumn - ''the sun set closer to the south than the west in this world''.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/11/27/1-28/ Chapter 1.28]</ref> The stars in the sky are stated to be fake, though it's not elaborated yet in what way, and they shine in various colors.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/09/09/9-57-b/ Chapter 9.57 B]</ref> The stars do move as if the world is rotating. The inhabitants have designated constellations. Known constellations include: the Guiding Dragon, the Guiding Flame.<ref>{{VERef|10.03 Y}}</ref> Underneath the surface, vast amounts of water flow down. Gravity also lessens the deeper one goes underground. [[Galuc]] suspected that if gravity worked normally at those depths, the world would implode from the inside-out.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/07/01/9-50/ Chapter 9.50]</ref> === Calendar System === There are sixteen months to a year, with four weeks per month and eight days per week.<ref name=":9.14VM">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/09/06/9-14-vm/ Chapter 9.14 VM]</ref><ref name=":9.39">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/03/08/9-39/ Chapter 9.39]</ref> Despite the longer years, the inhabitants still conform to Earth's sense of time, and an eight year old in Innworld will still look like an eight year old, rather than looking older.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/03/12/9-40-gg/ Chapter 9.40 GG]</ref> The days are called (in order of being revealed): * Laudas<ref name=":8.32">[https://wanderinginn.com/2021/07/25/8-32/ Chapter 8.32]</ref> - A name of a day used in [[Roshal]], which refers to the 23rd of Solla. * Beithday<ref name=":9.01">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/06/07/9-01/ Chapter 9.01]</ref> * Tirenv<ref name=":9.28">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/12/14/9-28/ Chapter 9.28]</ref> *Nendas<ref name=":9.38TVpt2">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/03/01/9-38-tv-pt-2/ Chapter 9.38 TV (Pt. 2)]</ref> - The 4th day of the week. *Saelsmorn<ref name=":interlude-innovation-and-invention">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/03/15/interlude-innovation-and-invention/ Interlude β Innovation and Invention]</ref> - The 2nd day of the week.
