A feeder region, or just feeder, is one of the seven game-created regions through which a constant flow of nations is maintained without recruitment. There is another school of thought that defines a feeder region as one of the regions where nations are created (see birth regions) and "feed" other regions. It is this characteristic of being a locaton where nations are fabricated, refabricated, or sent to through ejection, that enables feeder regions such maintenance of nation flow.

In all, there are in existence a total of seven known feeder regions:

The Rejected Realms and Lazarus are moreover unseldom called sink regions regions as some nations quite simply end up "dropped" there. When a nation is ejected from (or kicked out of) a region (see: banlist) it is relocated to the Rejected Realms. Nations that have ceased to exist due to inactivity may be revived by contacting the moderators; in which case they end up situated the Lazarus region.

Oftentimes labelled as the birth regions, the five Pacific regions are so named, for being the location where all nations originate and are spawned.
