There are many theories as to why Rabiah is so similiar to Earth's Middle-East. One is that the original plane may have been a parallel plane to Earth's Middle-East. Another says that Earth's Middle-East may have been modeled after Rabiah and the "One Thousand and One Arabian Nights" after a citizen of Rabiah came to Earth. It could also be that Earth was a refracted Rabiah that somehow drifted away from the others. However, official philosophy of Continuity Team is that Earth is not a part of Magic [[Multiverse]].
