Gaia (Final Fantasy VII)
Gaia is the fictional world in the 1997 console role-playing game Final Fantasy VII. The game's setting follows in the footsteps of Final Fantasy VI by presenting a world with considerably more advanced technology than the first five games in the series. Overall, the game's technology and society approximates that of modern or near-future science fiction. The world of Final Fantasy VII, retroactively named "Gaia" but referred to in the game as The Planet, is composed of three land masses. The eastern continent features the city of Midgar, an industrial metropolis that serves as the headquarters of the Shinra Electric Power Company, a ruthless mega corporation that operates as the de facto world government. Shinra's major military base, Junon, is also located on the continent, along with a chocobo ranch and a small town called Kalm.
