Short answer
Rockstar has named six regions: a big coastal city, an island chain, wetlands, a faded resort coast, an industrial sugar town and a national park on the northern border.
Mount Kalaga National Park
National park. Wild country on the northern edge of the state.
- Sits against Leonida’s northern border.
- Known for hunting, fishing and off-road trails.
