{{Lore Link|Nirn}} (believed to mean 'Arena' in [[Lore:Ehlnofex Languages|Ehlnofex]]) is the planet on which the Elder Scrolls is set. It floats in the void of [[Lore:Oblivion|Oblivion]] and is, for all intents and purposes, the majority of the realm known as [[Lore:Mundus|Mundus]].{{ref|name=PGE3AS|{{Cite book|PGE|3|Arena Supermundus}}}} Sources often use the terms Nirn and Mundus synonymously, despite the technical differences in the two terms. Nirn was created during the [[Lore:Dawn Era|Dawn Era]] by the [[Lore:Aedra|Aedra]] and [[Lore:Anu|Anu]]-aligned spirits, based on [[Lore:Lorkhan|Lorkhan]]'s inspiration{{ref|name=SNGM|{{Cite book|Spirit of Nirn, God of Mortals}}}} and [[Lore:Magnus (god)|Magnus]]' designs.{{ref|name=VFE|{{Cite book|Varieties of Faith in the Empire}}}}{{ref|name=TM|{{Cite book|The Monomyth}}}}<noinclude>

[[Lore:Tamriel|Tamriel]] is the main continent of Nirn and is its mythic and symbolic center. Tamriel is split into 9 provinces: [[Lore:Black Marsh|Black Marsh]], [[Lore:Cyrodiil|Cyrodiil]], [[Lore:Elsweyr|Elsweyr]], [[Lore:Hammerfell|Hammerfell]], [[Lore:High Rock|High Rock]], [[Lore:Morrowind|Morrowind]], [[Lore:Skyrim|Skyrim]], [[Lore:Summerset Isle|Summerset Isle]], and [[Lore:Valenwood|Valenwood]].

Other continents on Nirn are mentioned in various texts, but have not generally been shown on maps or described in detail.{{ref|name=PGE3OL|{{Cite book|PGE|3|Other Lands}}}}{{ref|name=TAA|{{Cite book|The Annotated Anuad}}}}

* [[Lore:Akavir|Akavir]] is a continent east of Tamriel, including four regions: [[Lore:Kamal (place)|Kamal]], [[Lore:Tsaesci (place)|Tsaesci]], [[Lore:Tang Mo (place)|Tang Mo]], and [[Lore:Ka Po' Tun (place)|Ka Po' Tun]].{{ref|name=MA|{{Cite book|Mysterious Akavir}}}}
* [[Lore:Atmora|Atmora]] is a continent north of Tamriel, former homeland of the ancestors of modern [[Lore:Nord|Nord]]s.{{ref|name=FCA|{{Cite book|Frontier, Conquest}}}}
* [[Lore:Yokuda|Yokuda]] was a continent west of Tamriel and the original homeland of the [[Lore:Redguard|Redguard]]s, but has since sunk into the sea.
* [[Lore:Pyandonea|Pyandonea]] is a continent south of Tamriel. It is home to the elusive [[Lore:Maormer|Maormer]].{{ref|name=PGR1WR|{{Cite book|PGE|1|The Wild Region}}}}

Nirn has two moons, [[Lore:Masser|Masser]] and [[Lore:Secunda|Secunda]].{{ref|name=TLL|{{Cite book|The Lunar Lorkhan}}}} The other astral bodies in the sky above Nirn are believed to actually be the spheres of the [[Lore:Aedra|Aedra]] and [[Lore:Daedra|Daedra]], as seen from the mortal plane. The sun and stars are also punctures in the veil of Oblivion, through which the light of [[Lore:Aetherius|Aetherius]] shines into Mundus. One exception is the snake constellation, [[Lore:The Serpent|The Serpent]], which 'wanders' about the sky.{{Ref|name=Firmament|{{Cite book|The Firmament}}}} It is made up of "unstars".{{ref|name=Cosmology|group=oog|{{TIL|Cosmology|cosmology}} — The Temple Zero Society}}
