Modern elaboration of Asia, referring to the continent
Asianae is a modern American invention, likely created by combining the name Asia with the popular suffix '-nae'. The root name Asia is derived from the Greek word for the eastern continent, which itself may have roots in the Akkadian word 'asu', meaning 'to go out' or 'to rise', referring to the sun.
