MapleSEA

MapleSEA or MSEA (short for Maplestory South East Asia) is the South-east Asian version of MapleStory. It is written in English (like MapleGlobal) and is meant for the countries of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand (though people from other countries can sign up as well). Unlike MapleGlobal, MapleSEA is not run by Nexon but by AsiaSoft. There are six worlds in MapleSEA all of which are named after constellations.

Worlds

All the worlds are name after constellations, except for the world "Izar", which is name after a star. Each world are arranged in an alphabetical and chronological order (first world starts with 'A', second 'B' and goes on).
