List of locations in the Anno Domini era.
Locations[]
Celestial Being[]
Earth[]
- Team Trinity Base - The underground base for Team Trinity. Located within a mountain in northwestern Africa.
- Unnamed Pacific Island - A nondescript, undeveloped, and uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean used as a temporary camp by Celestial Being in between some of its missions on Earth.
- Wang Family Estate - Probably one of Wang Liu Mei's many homes, located somewhere in Europe. It was used for during Celestial Being's intervention in the Moralia, PMC Trust, and AEU joint military exercise.
Space[]
- Europa - The wreckage of a derelict exploration ship orbiting Jupiter. Launched in 2188 AD, the ship's personnel were secretly Celestial Being members who were using the mission to produce the first five functional GN Drives. After the GN Drives were completed and sent back to Earth, one of the scientists killed all other passengers and crew, and unsuccessfully tried to destroy the ship. The Corner Family sent an expedition to find the Europa in 2219 AD, which arrived there in 2225 AD and recovered a functioning Haro data terminal.
- Hidden Asteroid Base - An unnamed Celestial Being support facility built into an asteroid in an artificial asteroid field outside the Union Space Colony at Lagrange 1. The asteroid field was originally assembled by the Union for use as raw materials in the construction of the space colony. With the colony complete, the asteroid field was abandoned, and Celestial Being took advantage of that to build a base there.
- Krung Thep - Krung Thep is an isolated space colony at Lagrange 3, operated by Celestial Being as a mobile suit development lab and factory. On the surface, the colony functions as a civilian factory, funded by multiple companies, for the manufacture of products that could only be made in space, and for the research and development of new materials.
- Moon Terminal - Located somewhere on the dark side of the Moon, the entrance is hidden by an opening disguised as a crater. This underground facility contains Veda's core, and Aeolia Schenberg in cryogenic stasis.
Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations[]
Earth[]
- Japan - The Special Economic Jurisdiction of Japan is the only member state of the Union within proximity of the Human Reform League. Its capital of Tokyo is the location of the Japan News Network (JNN) Head Office, where Kinue Crossroad worked and reported on her investigation of Celestial Being.
- La Edenra Base - Located somewhere in the South American Mountainous Region. One of the three active military bases of the La Edenra eco-terrorist group that were destroyed by Celestial Being.
- Taribia - A member state of the Union. It is located in South America, and encompasses the former countries of Guyana and Venezuela.[1] Celestial Being intervened here on two occasions, the first to destroy the country's drug crop fields, and the second to halt Taribia's attempted secession from the Union.
- Union Presidential Residence - The residence of the President of the Union, who is also President of the United States of America. It is located in Washington, D.C., on the north side of Pennsylvania Avenue and overlooking the White House.
Military Bases[]
- Brazilian Garrison Base - A Union military base in Brazil. Union aerial forces deployed from here during Taribia's attempt to secede from the Union.
- Illinois Base - A Union military base. A press conference is held here to announce the rollout of the GNX-603T GN-X by United Nations Forces to use in operations against Celestial Being.
- MSWAD Headquarters- Located somewhere in the continental United States of America. It is the headquarters of the Union Mobile Suit Warehouse And Development (MSWAD), and operating base for the Over Flags unit. Team Trinity attacked the facility and killed Professor Ralph Eifman shortly after he realized Celestial Being's connection to the Europa expedition.
Space[]
- Orbital Elevator "Tower" - The Union's orbital elevator, located in South America. It was the first orbital elevator to be built. It has a High Orbital Station and a Low Orbital Station at the junctions of upper and lower equatorial rings for the solar energy system, but neither are identified by name.
- Union Space Colony - Located at Lagrange One, the point between both the Earth and the Moon in which gravitational and centrifugal forces are balanced. It is the Union's primary space colony, as well as the first space colony ever built. Celestial Being's hidden asteroid base is in a nearby asteroid field that was used for building materials.
Advanced European Union[]
Earth[]
- AEU Capital - The unidentified capital city of the AEU. The AEU's ruling council, the AEU Central Assembly, convenes here.
- France - Exact location, with Paris still its capital city. Princess Marina Ismail visits here on her tour of Europe to negotiate access to the orbital elevator solar energy system for Azadistan.
- Moralia - A recently-formed country that occupies the geographic locale of the real-life Principality of Monaco. Its entire economy is built on hosting private military corporations and hiring them out to conflict zones around the world. As a major driver of global conflict, Celestial Being intervened and destroyed almost all of Moralia's mobile suit forces, forcing the country to surrender unconditionally. The AEU, which had previously taken Moralia under its military protection in a vain effort to stop the intervention due to the need for Moralia's mobile suits in its planned space colony development program, stepped in to provide the country economic assistance.
- Northern Ireland - An intermittent conflict hotspot for centuries, the Real Irish Republican Army organization announced a ceasefire and discontinuation of terrorist attacks in the wake of Celestial Being's simultaneous interventions in South Africa, Taribia, and Ceylon.
- Scotland - Exact location. Marina Ismail visits here on her tour of Europe to negotiate access to the orbital elevator solar energy system for Azadistan. Setsuna F. Seiei was also there to chase after a suspect terrorist from La Edenra responsible for a recent terrorist bombing there.
Military Bases[]
- AEU Training Grounds - Situated within visual distance of the Africa Orbital elevator as the AEU Enact demonstrated at the Base.
- Northern Italy Base - An AEU military base in northern Italy. It was destroyed by Team Trinity.
Space[]
The AEU lagged behind the Union and Human Reform League in space development, and it did not yet have any orbital stations or space colonies of its own.
- Orbital Elevator "La Tour" - The AEU's orbital elevator, located in central Africa. It was the third orbital elevator to be built, but it was still under construction in 2307 AD and not completed until sometime between 2308 AD and 2312 AD. It was severely damaged in a Federation coup attempt in 2312 AD, but remained intact enough that services were partially restored four months later.
Human Reform League[]
Earth[]
- HRL Chairman's Residence - The residence of the Chairman of the Human Reform League. Its architectural style implies it is located in China.
- Marshall Islands - The site of one of the three active bases of the La Edenra eco-terrorist group that were destroyed by Celestial Being.
Military Bases[]
- Garrison Post Seven - An HRL military outpost in Ceylon that was attacked by Setsuna F. Seiei following Celestial Being's first intervention in the wider Ceylon civil war. Lieutenant Colonel Sergei Smirnov confronted Setsuna for the first time here.
- HRL Ceylon Garrison Base - An HRL military base. While Ceylon is not a member of the HRL, the HRL established a military presence there in an unsuccessful effort to quell the local civil conflict. Following Celestial Being's first intervention in Ceylon, the HRL recovered one of their Containers and took it to this base to study.
- Guangzhou Military District - An HRL military base located in Guangzhou, Canton, China. It is attacked by Team Trinity, who are repelled by the HRL Chobu Squadron using new GNX-603T GN-X units.
- Manchuria Military Garrison Base - An HRL military base located in Manchuria in China.
Space[]
- High Orbital Station "The Internationale" - A station on the HRL's orbital elevator. A civilian facility that was targeted in a terrorist attack that was stopped by Celestial Being in one of their first anti-conflict interventions.
- HRL Military Satellite Station - A station on the HRL's orbital elevator. A military outpost for defensive purposes that monitors space traffic.
- Low Orbital Station "True Pillar" - A station on the HRL's orbital elevator. A civilian facility with businesses and living quarters that made it a common tourist destination. One of the station's gravity blocks, a public commercial sector, was accidentally cut loose by Soma Peries, but the occupants were saved from falling to Earth by Sergei Smirnov with assistance from Celestial Being.
- Orbital Elevator "Tenchū (Heaven's Pillar)" - The HRL's orbital elevator, located on an artificial island near the real-life nation of Nauru, north of the Solomon Islands in the Pacific Ocean. It was the second orbital elevator to be built.
- Quanqiu - The HRL's space colony, located at Lagrange 4. This is the site of the Super Human Research Institute operated by the HRL military. Celestial Being invaded Quanqiu with a mobile suit in defiance of international law prohibiting warfare in space colonies, and destroyed the Institute.
Earth Sphere Federation[]
Earth[]
- A-Laws HQ – The headquarters of A-Laws.
Space[]
Unaffiliated[]
Earth[]
- Azadistan - The Kingdom of Azadistan corresponds geographically with the modern day Iran. To gain trust and faith towards the newly reformed Federation (Ep.25), Azadistan was returned to its people and leader. Princess Marina Ismail was allowed to return and govern her country.
- Ceylon - Located near southern India close to the former island of Sri Lanka. Currently the Sinhalese and the Tamil people occupy it with HRL involved backing up the Tamil. A HRL Base of Operations is present.[2]
- South Africa - This country was in the midst of a civil war over mineral rights for mining. The combatants primarily used weaponized Workloader units. Celestial Being's Lockon Stratos intervened here alone and destroyed numerous Workloaders until the remainder gave up and fled.
- Krugis - The Republic of Krugis was a nation in the Middle East, possibly within the region of Kurdistan. It was taken over by the Kingdom of Azadistan before the events of the first season. It is Setsuna F. Seiei's homeland.
- Suille - The Kingdom of Suille is a Middle Eastern country thought to occupy a region within the Arabian Peninsula. A-Laws decided to test their new satellite weapon, Memento Mori, upon the country. Memento Mori was fired directly above the country when Katharon members were talking. In mere seconds, the Suille royalty and Katharon rebels heard and saw a beam of great intensity, incoming towards them. Before anyone could react, Memento Mori successfully vaporized Suille. Nothing remained of Suille, except a gigantic crater in its wake.
