Definition of the Old World

The Old World consists of everything, that is not the New World (North and South America). In other words, the Old World includes Asia, Africa, and Europe, or the entire known world (during the Asian Golden Age, European Middle Ages, and Pre-colonial Africa), after the fall of the western Roman Empire, until the Americas were "discovered," by those in the Old World. This must not be taken literally, because the "New World" was already very old (in terms of advanced civilization), as well, but I don't know of any better term.

The other continents, Antarctica and Australia are not included, in this division (as they were also unknown to people in the Old World, at that time, as well). A similar more modern term would be the Eastern Hemisphere, except that it is missing parts of western Africa and western Europe and includes Australia and part of Antarctica. The official term is the truly ugly and unmemorable Afro-Eurasia.

"Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work? Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not. All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day."

--John 6:26-40
