The '''Elendel Basin''' is a lush, fertile basin created by [[Harmony]] when he reshaped [[Scadrial]] as part of the [[Catacendre]]. It was purposefully designed to allow civilization to build itself back up over just a couple of generations.{{wob ref|697}} It is named after [[Elend]].
The Basin's coastline matches up with the coastline in known maps of the [[Final Empire]]. The peninsula that contains [[Bilming]] can be seen on Final Empire maps, just west of the [[Ashmount]] Doriel.{{wob ref|13162}}
It is situated somewhat north of the equator.{{wob ref|15856}}

The Basin largely revolves around the city of [[Elendel]]. The city is located near the center of the Basin and serves as a major port on the Sea of Yomend. The Basin's rivers, including the large [[Irongate River]], are laid out like spokes on a wheel such that they each run through Elendel. Similarly, railway lines loosely mirror the paths of the rivers and almost every line runs through the capital.{{map ref|Elendel Basin}} Elendel itself is roughly circular and divided into octants by large canals,{{map ref|Elendel}} with suburbs that lie outside of the urban core that blend into an agricultural area known as the [[Outer Estates]].{{book ref|mb4|11}}
