This article is based on material by: 

The world of Krynn is the setting of the Dragonlance campaign, a planet with large oceans, many islands and five continents, of which only Ansalon and Taladas are well known.
Krynn is the third planet orbiting the Sun in the crystal sphere called Krynnspace.[1] It is an earth body with a diverse environment. People live on its continents and even in its seas. This makes it the most populated planet in the crystal sphere.[2] The planet Krynn attracts a lot of attention from the local gods. In the past, the people of Krynn have challenged the gods, and the gods are believed to have used a meteor to destroy an entire city in retaliation. Unlike many of the other planets in Krynnspace, no gods are believed to actually live within the planet Krynn.[3]

Krynn has three moons: Nuitari, Lunitari, and Solinari.
