Sharp Continent
The Sharp Continent is what is now left from the Teen Grid ([1] - see this related article for more information). Since it has more then 30 sims, it deserves the name Continent. It is mainland. The name is not official, but many new residents (that came after the Teen Grid united with the Main Grid) simply call it 'the sharp piece of land '.
History
In the old times, underage users were allowed access only in a limited part of the grid. An underage user could not see the rest of the grid and an adult could not see the underage area. This included the Sharp Continent and some private islands. However, at some point this separation ended. Today, the policy for underage avatars is different. Sharp Continent united with the main grid somewhere in 2010 [2] .
Geography
The continent is located somewhere between Satori and Premium 1 (see Premium Continents for more info). It is a long and sharp group of sims, set from North-West to South-East. From one end to the opposite end, you need to pass through 34 sims, however the continent is only 1 to 4 sims wide.
The Geography of this continent is somehow similar to that of Sansara. In West, there is a small city formed of 5 sims (Hyperion, Loki, Ni, Hippoden and Pullman. They also have a trolley that looks a bit similar with the Nova Albilon trolley (the East suburbs of Bay City in Sansara). This town is followed by a group of sims that look like the priordial sims around Da Boom in sansara. The next sector to East look like the inner seas, rivers and islands of Sansara, with many roads and waterways and even two dams. The most Eastern sector is covered with ice, like the snowlands of Sansara. The shores of this continent are not compleatly finished.
The road network is split in two unconnected sectors: the central sector and the West sector in the city. Accesibility is easy, by road, by boat or by foot. There are not many ban lines, so a person can travel easy from one end to the opposite one.

Coordinates
The following numbers are the local coordinates, like they can be seen on Gridsurvey [3] for the continent and its subdivisions. The data format is longitude (min-max) / latitude (min-max).
Continent: 1158-1179/988-1001 West Town: 1158-1160/1001-1002 Land with no roads: 1161-1166/997-1000 Land with roads: 1167-1176/992-998 Snowlands: 1175-1179/988-991
Current situation
Even if today the teen grid no longer exists, the land is not abandoned. The population density is similar to that of Sansara.
