The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has shown us that it has a massive landmass to explore, but what about that landmass? What about Hyrule and all of its constituent provinces? This episode focuses on geography, how Hyrule is seen in Breath of the Wild, some locations that make each province unique, and why it is important to know about the provinces that make up this version of Hyrule. Theorizing and discussing geography in this franchise appears to be important, so this episode is dedicated to making sense of the wild.

If you zoom out fully, you can see the province names; zoom in as much as you can, and you will find names of minor locations, so toggling with this map can give you the necessary information.
