Howandaland – This spelling, first mentioned in Wyrd Sisters, is the location of a hurricane, as noted by Death. It may or may not be the Unnamed Continent in the center of Klatch. Possibly a misspelling of Howondaland.

Hublands – The central area of the Disc. First mentioned as such in Sourcery but hinted at earlier with the Hub, Hubwards, etc.
