Chommo is the eastmost region in the world of ''EarthBound''. The region is mostly mountains and desert, while having a [[Deep Darkness|dark swamp]] in the southmost part. Being a mountainous and desert region, Chommo does not have many civilized cities and towns. The only cities that appeared in ''EarthBound'' in Chommo are Dalaam and Scaraba. Dalaam is located high in the mountains and is where Prince Poo lives. Scaraba is the desert part of the region. To the south of Scaraba is a large desert with many pyramids. Across a body of water is a dark swamp known as Deep Darkness, the darkness is very thick and requires the Hawk Eye to navigate. It is | Chommo is the eastmost region in the world of ''EarthBound''.

The real-world counterpart to Chommo is the continent of {{wp|Asia}}, however Scaraba's inclusion implies it to also extend to Northern [[Wikipedia:Africa|Africa]]. Dalaam is based off of {{wp|China}} based on its geographical location on the map<ref>[http://starmen.net/mother2/publications/Famitsu_19940812/021.jpg Famitsu Weekly, 8/12/1994]</ref>, the architecture also implies it took inspiration from {{wp|India}} as well, most notably with the elephant statues outside of Poo's palace. Scaraba shares resemblance, geographical features, and history to that of Africa or the Middle East, the southern portion is based off of {{wp|Egypt}}, with the pyramids and The Sphinx being based off of their real-life counterparts. Deep Darkness appears to be based off of southeast Asia based on its swampy climate, and also the inclusion of the [[Demonic Petunia]], which in Japan is named Devil Rafflesia, as the {{wp|rafflesia}} is a plant that grows in southeast Asia. | The real-world counterpart to Chommo is the continent of {{wp|Asia}}, however Scaraba's inclusion implies it to also extend to Northern [[Wikipedia:Africa|Africa]].
