Each Eco server generates a new world when it is started for the first time. It is where all of the gameplay will happen on the server and the generated world holds all of the resources needed to stop the Asteroid. This world is divided into multiple differing biomes each of which contains different flora & fauna that interact with each other and the environment around them to form an intricate ecosystem.

Although it appears to be a globe on the in-game map, the world is actually a 2-dimensional plane wrapped around at the edges.
