Arabien

Arabien is a toponym that appears in different contexts but does not refer to a single real-world state. In several European languages, notably German, Arabien is used as a historical or literary form to denote the Arab world or the Arabian Peninsula. In encyclopedic or cartographic usage, Arabien can function as a regional designation rather than a political entity, and it may be used to describe culturally Arab-majority areas in a generic sense.

In fiction and speculative media, Arabien is commonly employed as the name of a fictional country or region. The exact geography, government, and social customs attributed to Arabien vary from work to work, as authors and game designers define them to suit their narratives. Descriptions often evoke desert landscapes, bustling markets, and a blend of traditional and contemporary influences associated with Middle Eastern cultures, though specifics are not standardized.

Because there is no universally recognized modern state named Arabien, references to the term should be interpreted from context. The name functions more as a stylistic or descriptive label than as a definitive political designation.
