On subject, the far east can be a wide majority of things, hell, wouldn't the Garlean Empire itself fit under this vague description? There is a lot more to the "far east" then Doma.
I wouldn't exactly call Garlemald "far" east. I mean, the only thing separating the Empire from the Black Shroud is a thin strip of land belonging to Xelphatol (which somehow we still know absolutely nothing about)
That is true, but until its charted, I would still consider it under that category. The way I see it, the far east would be everything outside of Eorzea. Meaning everything east after Xelphatol (Which we have no idea how big exactly is that strip of land) and Gyn Abinia.
Admittedly it's all semantics, but I'm bored and it's something to talk about, right? So my thought is that while Garlemald certainly owns some of the far east (Doma and such), the near-end of the Empire is more what I'd consider the middle east, i.e. Ala Mhigo.Â
But as you said, we have no idea what the true extent of the Empire is. For all we know, they could have territory west of us, too.
