fictional universes

Fictional universes are imaginative settings created in literature, film, video games, and other media, where stories unfold with their own rules, history, and characters. These universes can range from realistic to fantastical, often featuring unique societies, languages, and technologies. Well-known examples include the vast worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Middle-earth" or the intricate galaxy of "Star Wars." Each universe offers a space for storytelling, allowing audiences to explore diverse themes and experiences, while inviting them to engage with complex characters and plots within that distinct context.
