I wouldn't use {Sep} to mean "region" in the sense of "area, some general
area". KGT tells us that a {Sep} is a "region" in the sense of a "specific
area whose borders are definable" and that these "regions" were politically
distinct in the past, and "country" might've been an appropriate
translation when this was the case. I don't know if any {Sep} on {Qo'noS}
cover a surface area which is entirely water, but if one existed, I expect
it to have specific borders (to the degree that this is possible in the
sea).
