South America (Guns of the Patriots Incident)

An unnamed country in South America located around the Andes with an intense political climate. It was the site of a civil war between a new governmental regime and those who favored the old regime (the latter of which is implied to be Communist).

History
At some point prior to 2014, the old regime was ousted from power, and replaced with a new one. Consequentally, several of the soldiers did not like the regime change, and left the army to form a resistance against the new regime. In response, the new regime requested for the Pieuvre Armement PMC to aid them in taking out the Rebels. In exchange, the de-facto leader of the PMC, Liquid Ocelot, used parts of the facility as a base in order to find a way to remove the Sons of the Patriots system. Liquid Ocelot and his men also anticipated that Solid Snake would arrive at the base among the rebel soldiers, to which Vamp, his second in command, told the PMC soldiers to be on the lookout at the Cove Valley Village. Their predictions turned out to be correct, as Snake eventually managed to arrive at the research facility that Naomi Hunter was being held at.

The outcome of the battle between the rebel soldiers and the current regime is currently unknown.

Geography
The geography is primarily composed of jungles as well as varying elevations. However, the Vista Mansion was put in a noticably more arid location.

Flora
Muna developed around the area, which could be utilized as a means of relaxing a soldier.

Fauna
Guinea pigs are prevalent throughout the area, as well as some Snakes and centipedes.
