The Rutherians call it Chualenska More, and the Mauri call it Bobar Corsun (the same word as the one they use for the Arabian Gulf), which means enclosed sea. I observe that it is called differently by others, such as Mare de Bachu, Cunzar, Giorgian, Terbestan and Corusum, after the names of adjacent areas and places. It is the largest lake in the entire world and has salt water. It has fish in abundance.]
