Seven Seas

The Seven Seas refer to the traditional division of the world's oceanic waters into seven distinct regions: the Arctic, North Atlantic, South Atlantic, Indian, North Pacific, South Pacific, and Southern (or Antarctic) Oceans. These designations have evolved over time to help with navigation, climate study, and maritime governance. Today, they represent major areas of global ocean circulation and biodiversity, critical for climate regulation, transportation, and the Earth's ecosystem health. Although not officially defined in modern geography, the concept of the Seven Seas remains a useful way to understand the vast and interconnected nature of our planet's oceans.
