Westeros is a continent located in the far west of the known world. It is separated from the continent of Essos by a strip of water known as the Narrow Sea. Most of the action in Game of Thrones takes place in Westeros.
Author of the series George R.R. Martin has stated that the continent of Westeros is roughly the same size as the real-life continent of South America.
Almost the entire continent, barring only the lands in the furthest north beyond the Wall, is ruled by a single political entity known as the Seven Kingdoms, which holds fealty to the King of the Andals and the First Men, who sits on the Iron Throne in the city of King’s Landing. The terms “Seven Kingdoms” and “Westeros” are normally used interchangeably.
