What are the 6 main realms in the mortal kombat?

What are their definitions and history of the 6 main realms?

Is there a map for 6 main realms? Where can I find or see it?

Outworld

Quote:
Outworld's known history goes back millions of years and points at Onaga, the Dragon King, as its first ruler. Though he would eventually be supplanted by Shao Kahn, they both shared the same visions of expanding Outworld by taking other realms by force. Unwittingly, both were being controlled by the echos of the One Being. Outworld is an empire that stretches out over numerous realms which have been magically annexed. Despite the despotism both emperors have displayed, Outworld is in a constant state of turmoil, more so under Shao Kahn than it was under Onaga.

Outworld's primary landscapes appear to consist of barren wastelands, deserts, pools of acid, dense forests and high, mysterious mountain peaks. Small villages are scattered throughout the landscape, and like Edenia, the realm teems with magic. Beyond the imperial palace, no real metropoles seem to exist on Outworld.

---------------------------------



Here's the map






Edenia



Quote:

As its name suggests, the world of Edenia is one closely resembling the garden of Eden. It is a very fertile world, and its inhabitants seem to age much more slowly than normal humans would. They also appear to be preoccupied intensely with magic. It is a feudal monarchy much like most other realms in the Mortal Kombat universe. For many thousands of years, it was merged with Outworld after being defeated in Mortal Kombat. However, Edenia has recently become an independent realm again. Of all realms, it appears to be closest to Earthrealm in terms of environment and population.

The earliest known ruler of Edenia was king Jerrod. His best warriors lost ten Mortal Kombat tournaments in a row to the warriors of Outworld's ruler, Shao Kahn. By the rulings of the Elder Gods, this granted Kahn the power to invade Edenia. Outworld won the subsequent war and Edenia was annexed. To legitimise himself, Kahn forced queen Sindel into a marriage and adopted her daughter Kitana, among other members of the royal household while personally slaying Jerrod. In the wake of Shao Kahn's defeat at the hands of Liu Kang 10,000 years later, Edenia would be freed from its merger with Outworld by Kitana. With brief intermezzos of war and abduction by evil forces, Sindel has been Edenia's queen ever since.

There is the edenian map




Chaosrealm


quote:

Chaosrealm is a world that seems to defy normal laws of physics to the point where it is uncertain whether it can really be called a world, as the visible parts seem to be made up of floating rock formations. Apparently Chaosrealm used to be a normal world until at some point in the distant past, the God of Chaos unleashed "the Tempest". This was responsible for the realm's transformation and its fragmentation, and is also thought to have caused collective amnesia among the inhabitants of the realm.

The Chaosrealmers reflect their world's chaotic nature, and hold absolute freedom and change in the highest esteem, relishing in chaos and living in an absolute anarchy. It is the polar opposite of Orderrealm. In a twist of irony, it is precisely Orderrealm which seeks to control Chaosrealm for its vast reserves of water, which it lacks.

Sorry I couldn't find anything on orderrealm



Netherrealm


Quote:

Shujinko: "This place... it feels dark."

Damashi: "As dark as every heart that inhabits it. Your presence here would not be possible. Only evil resides in this realm."

Netherealm appears to be, like Outworld, a realm composed of different layers. In the Mortal Kombat universe, deceased souls or entities who have committed major crimes descend into the Netherealm to undergo endless torture. In fact, one cannot enter the Netherealm without being evil or have a soul tainted with evil. It is an alternative, more generic name for the Christian concept of Hell, as one of its former rulers was Lucifer (whose name appears only in the Sub-Zero game manual but not in-game). It is also described as "the darkest region of reality", and is inhabited by demons, monsters, and beings of the purest evil.

Though exits from and entrances to the Netherealm are very limited for obvious reasons, the world had quite a tumultuous history. Millions of years ago, the fallen Elder God Shinnok was banished there. After ages of imprisonment, he was able to break free, deposing Lucifer in the process. He restructured the realm to bear some resemblance to Earthrealm, the world which he had long desired to make his own. He later used it as a staging ground for the invasion of Edenia, but found himself cast into the depths of the realm again after this invasion was foiled. The abandoned war machines of Shinnok were then put to good use by one of his former acolytes, Noob Saibot.

Two locations within this realm include the Bridge of Immortality and the Prison of Souls. These are almost like the Di Yu in Chinese Mythology. The Prison of Souls is the Chamber of Grinding and so is the Slaughterhouse. Shinnok's Spire resembles to that of Yan Wang's spire in Journey to the West.

In Mortal Kombat: Deception's Konquest mode, Shujinko arrives during the "Festival of Torture", in which dead bodies burn and people watch them.

------------------------

Earthrealm

Quote:

Earthrealm is one of many realms that were formed after the Elder Gods shattered the One Being. In the Mortal Kombat universe, Earthrealm has been the target of frequent attempts at conquest, because it is thought to be the jewel of the cosmos and an important universal power node. Because of this, the Elder Gods have appointed a deity to protect the realm from harm. For countless centuries this has been Raiden, though other gods such as Fujin also play a role in this. Furthermore, the Shaolin Temple of the Light was formed to train mortals in martial arts and prepare them to defend their world from evil. More recent organisations such as the reformed Lin Kuei or the Special Forces play a similar role. Earthrealm was nearly destroyed millions of years BMK in a war between Shinnok and Raiden, and then verged on the brink of collapse in 3 AMK during Shao Kahn's short conquest. After his invasion was foiled, Earthrealm has served as an inspiration to other conquered realms of Outworld. Edenia will later be liberated and Nitara's vampire realm will be freed as well.

Hope this helps.

This may help on the orderrealm


Quote:

The realm of Chaos was once like any other realm until the God of Chaos
released his tempest which keeps the realm from obeying the laws of nature.
Chaos can be described as the religion of the chaos people. The Chaos people
hold water sacred since it has no shape and its flow never ceasing, it is
considered to be chaos. They have built a tempest in the middle of the realm
which keeps the realm from obeying the laws of nature. Another structure built
is the labyrinth which serves as a reminder of the importance of confusion. War
is also another value they hold in the Chaosrealm to maintain chaos. Two enemy
tribes called the Yinasi and Yangese have been in constant war for centuries,
this has kept chaos in motion throughout the realm. It took Havik centuries but
he eventually gave into turmoil and is now the Chaosrealm’s most celebrated
cleric. Seido, the realm of Order however is a realm governed by law and order
and despite the confusion, they do not hold freedom as a value, freedom is
looked at as a path towards chaos. It shows as their realm is built by
structure and organization rather than by random. Seido’s laws are strict but
it is also a very safe realm. Their academy accepts citizens from all realms to
study order. As Havik is to the Chaos realm, the Seidan guard Hotaru is seen as
the Seido’s greatest hero. Seido however is not without problems, one of which
is a resistance movement led by the warrior Darrius. Darrius has a tactic he
uses when he needs a Seidan guard by hiring someone to kill the Seidan guards
family in the hope that the guard will kill the person in a fit of rage and
therefore jailed; then Darrius would break the Seidan guard out and easily
recruit him to the resistance. Darrius believes he is fighting an oppressive
government in Seido and wishes to instill a new government. According to Seidan
loyalists he is a terrorists, however separatist sees him as a hero. Another
problem that Seido faces however is their limited supply of water. With the
water supply and the intolerance of chaos has led Seido into direct
confrontation to the Chaosrealm. A Seidan guard once traveled to the Chaosrealm
to enforce law and created a prison there. This infuriated the Chaos people
since their ideals they held sacred, freedom was being taken from them, the
Seidan did not remain in control and his prison is now a relic in the
Chaosrealm as evidence of the Seido’s legacy. Recently a water facility has
been erected in the Chaosrealm by the Seidans as means for obtaining water for
their realm. The Chaos realm sees this as an abomination. However the
Orderrealm is not without its share of chaos problems as well as the chaos
people, including Havik has constantly to encourage chaos. Seido is also not
without its problems with the Seidan guards either. One warrior named Dairou
once served as a Seidan guard and upheld the law; however he once killed an
assailant out of a fit of rage, which is against Seidan law, and was sentenced
to a life of imprisonment. He thought it wrong that after all his years of
loyal service that the one moment of chaos was what came to define him. Then
one day he managed to escape in the confusion of a resistance riot. He could
not return as a Seidan or embrace chaos so Dairou became a mercenary and is
revered by the Orderrealm’s secret underground. The realms of chaos and order
have been in constant warfare.
