+Eagleland is located in the far west of the world, and is the largest region. Eagleland's climate is mostly temperate. Most of Eagleland is grasslands and hills, in addition there are also valleys, rivers, and a large desert. Eagleland is the most populated region in the game, the region features many cities large and small. Compared to [[America]] in ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]'', Eagleland's climate appears to be warmer and dryer, by comparison it consists of more hills and grasslands and fewer rivers and lakes.
 Similar to how ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]'' is clearly stated as being set in [[America]], Eagleland is a parody of the {{wp|United States of America}}. Eagleland is geographically shaped like the continent of {{wp|North America}}, most of its features are based off of the common features seen in the United States, which include geographically with various climates, and also in the form of man-made features such as entertainment. The name also is a likely reference to the bald eagle being a prominent symbol of America.
