I'm not so sure! Other than what is likely Myth Drannor, every place mentioned is along the sword coast.

Ooohhh is there an island of winged monkeys? I need to google - maybe I find a way of using it for my FR campaign before it finishes.
This reminds me of the old Wizard of Oz Movie.

Sort of, while Calimshan is techniques on the Swordcoast, it's considered part of the separate region called the Lands of Intrigue. The Lands of Intrigue was a collective term used to describe the nations of Amn, Calimshan, Muranndin, Erlkazar, Velen and Tethyr.
It's really the city states of the Swordcoast North and it's islands that is really what folks mean by the Swordcoast Region. The SCAG really didn't go into anything but super duper details about Calimshan for that reason.

Please, please, please give us a Purple Dragon Knight/Bannorett that matches the power level and narrative of anything not SCAG

Calimshan isn't really on the Sword Coast, as it's on the Trackless Sea rather than the Sea of Swords (which terminates at the Dragon's Neck Peninsula of Tethyr), and the bulk of the nation sprawls along the Shining Sea to the south instead. But it's certainly still on "the west coast of Faerûn" (which is what the most generous definitions of the Sword Coast tend to define anyway).
The Dalelands making a comeback would be welcome, but this still feels very much like SCAG Mk. 2 rather than an updated version of the iconic 2001 3E Campaign Setting book (which, despite questionable map-shrinking policies, remains the best "Realms in a single book" volume that has ever existed, and at this juncture is ever likely to exist).

Ha! I could see them doing that, just to piss me off.
Why would that piss you off? To me the FR Players Guide is the second part of the PHB as far as I'm concerned.

That is a safe bet.
I think Storm, Shadow, and Divine Sorcerer's are also likely, along with a mix of other subclasses in need of an update and new FR inspired ones as well.

The art at the very top with the floating islands looks like the city of Airspur in Akanul at the edge of the Old Empires Region.
