Sage Ocean was the second doubloon ocean and opened 2005-08-19.[1] It was merged into the Emerald Ocean on 31 Jan 2012. Sage has forty-nine islands divided among eight archipelagos. There are twenty-seven colonized islands. The archipelagos are named after birds, and the islands are mostly named after places—both real (Ashkelon Arch) and fictional (Morannon Island)—or people (Jack's Last Gift). Sage has the same geography as the Jade Ocean.
