Way Nation consists of a main island with an additional of 300 other smaller islands and islets, called the Archipelago of Way. The total territory is divided into 19 sub-territories. The capitol and largest city of the nation is City of Way, accounting 26% of the nation's population. Noras and Jeis are in second and third place respectively with 17% and 12% of the nation's population.
Grand Bay of Way is a sub-territory that is the hub of the nation's culture, music, and arts, with frequent performances organized by the Culture House and Centre of the Arts. The Pillars of Way are also located in this area.
Located in the West of the territory is Sacred Region, a holy and sacred land that forbids any trespassers or visitors to the area. This is due to The Great Holy Peak of Way located there, which the people of the nation regards as the place which created life to the nation and continuing to bless the whole nation. The Church opens The Great Holy Peak of Way on certain national holidays and on national day, for the people to make their journey up to the peak and get great blessings.
