  • Angola-Zaire border region
rdfs:comment
  • The area is possibly modeled after part of the Katanga Province in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo). The in game map bears a resemblance to the shape of the region, more specifically the upper half. It also borders neighboring Angola and is home to an and a mineral rich which is known to contain uranium ore. It, or at the very least the portion of the region composed of Kiziba Camp, Bwala ya Masa, and Mfinda Oilfield, may have also been located in or near the Ituri rainforest, as Okapi can be found in the area between those three locations, and the Ituri rainforest is their habitat. The Mfinda Oilfield was also implied in Traitor's Caravan to be located near the Munene River.

  • The area is possibly modeled after part of the Katanga Province in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo). The in game map bears a resemblance to the shape of the region, more specifically the upper half. It also borders neighboring Angola and is home to an and a mineral rich which is known to contain uranium ore.

The Mfinda Oilfield was also implied in Traitor's Caravan to be located near the Munene River. According to the commentary for concept art (specifically, concept art for Mfinda Oilfield and Bwala ya Masa) included in the Special and GAME editions of the Piggyback Strategy Guide for The Phantom Pain, Hideo Kojima deliberately made some of the locations in the Angola-Zaire border region polluted and gloomy to highlight how foreign (non-African) countries were parasitic on the African resources.
