The Great Sea is the setting of The Wind Waker.
In-game, The Great Sea is restricted to an area of 7x7 1000-unit squares, each containing an island of its own. The Great Sea is also a stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, although the stage is called Pirate Ship.
History
Many years before TWW begins, the land of Hyrule is flooded by the Gods as a last resort to stop Ganon's forces when The Hero of Time didn't arrive to destory them. Its surviving people flee to the mountain-tops and try to restore peaceful life. Those mountain-tops became the many islands of The Great Sea. Many years pass, and the people forget about the "Old" Hyrule, except in a bedtime story told to children, and in a coming of age ceremony for young boys.
Islands
Main Article: Great Sea Islands
Most of the islands in the Great Sea are quite small, with little intelligent life inhabiting them. The chief island is Windfall, which has the only major village, exept for a small settlement on Outset. There was a large pirate hideout at the Forsaken Fortress, until recently.
Some of the more prominent islands include:
People
There are many people in the great sea, but the main group is Hyrulean. They live on Windfall and Outset Island, but they are also scattered around. The Rito live on Dragon Roost Island, and the Koroks reside on Forest Haven with the Great Deku Tree. Gorons in this game are in the form of Goron Merchants. The wherabouts of the Zora are unknown, also a fish creature called Jabun is in this game, obviously someone like Jabu-Jabu. There are at least one group of pirates, Tetra's gang, but there probably was or is some more.
