===Qarth===
{{Main|Qarth}}
Qarth is an ancient city in the distant east, beyond the [[red waste]], on the shores of the [[Jade Sea]]. It is home to [[warlocks]] and merchant princes. Its position at the [[Jade Gates]] makes it the gateway of commerce and culture between the east and west (such as the Free Cities and Slaver's Bay), and more eastern lands (such as [[Asshai]], the [[Shadow Lands]], and [[Yi Ti]]). Brimming with wealth, and priding themselves on their sophistication, the Qartheen engage in unending intrigue between the many powerful factions of their society.

South of Qarth is the large island [[Great Moraq]], located between the [[Summer Sea]] and the Jade Sea.{{Ref|TLOIAF|Central Essos}}
