I'm working on creating a new hangout thread and I'd like to know where Menewsha actually is.

Some avatar forums present it as a world of its own but I don't get that idea with Menewsha. I didn't find anything definitive yet but I'm still reading the lore. I did catch a reference to the "main land" which leads me to believe Mene is a unique archipelago set in Earth, or an AU Earth.

Any thoughts? Did I miss anything?

Also, is there a map? Different parts of Menewsha are mentioned in the Chain Zodiac thread... but I have no context of these places.
