Aasian

Aasian is a term that may appear in fictional or speculative contexts to denote the inhabitants or culture of a land imagined as Aasia. It is not a widely used term in real-world geography or ethnography.

In such settings, Aasians are described as part of a diverse continent that blends elements of different real-world regions. The demonym Aasian is formed from the imagined continent's name and the common suffix -an.

Geography and society vary by work, but Aasia is usually depicted as a large landmass with coastal trade routes, diverse languages, and a range of political systems from city-states to federations.

Language families, folklore, and cultural practices are often invented to suit the world-building needs, with Aasian languages sometimes presented as a broad language family or a group of related tongues.

In real-world use, the term Aasian has no standard definition; for real-world reference, the term Asian is used to describe people and cultures of Asia.

In literature and games, Aasian can be used to explore themes of identity, migration, and globalization.
