Today the topic of our discussion will be the cities of San Andreas. We are talking about a fictional state, invented by the developers of the game of the same name. Oregon, Wyoming, Arizona, Nevada and California acted as prototypes.
State Government

Now let's name the cities of San Andreas: these are Las Venturas, San Fierro, Los Santos. The state consists of islands that are surrounded by water. The approximate area of the territory is 36 square kilometers. The fictional state has the following counties: Bone County, Tierra Robada, Whetstone, Flint, and Red County. In the described territory there is a different relief, landscape and climate. The first of the regions consists mainly of small settlements, rivers and forests. It's very warm here, sometimes there is smog.
Los Angeles Twin

Let's start describing the cities of San Andreas with Los Santos, as it is the largest in the state. Its prototype was Los Angeles (California). The city is filled with references to famous Hollywood stars. It has a border in the north with Red County, and in the west -from Flint County. Los Santos is the hometown of Carl Johnson, it is here that the character returns from Liberty City. The city has several districts with real prototypes: Ganton (Compton), Idlewood (Inglewood) and Vinewood (Hollywood).
San Fierro and Las Venturas
Now let's talk about the smallest city in the state. They are San Fierro. It is located in the west, on the peninsula. Based on the prototype, which in this case was San Francisco. To the south of the city is Mount Chiliad, as well as the village of Angel Pine. Through the northern border you can get to Bayside. A little to the east is the Tierra Robada area. There is also a border with Panopticon and Flint County (to the east and slightly south, respectively). Traces of the recent earthquake are visible in the city. You can also hear reports of this cataclysm on the radio.
Let's move on to the description of Las Venturas, the medium-sized city of San Andreas. Las Vegas became its prototype. The area here is deserted and various gambling is legalized. The city has a system of highways that surround it along the borders. In addition, one such road is located in the center. Districts are not as remarkable as cities, but you should know about them. For example, Red County - this agricultural district is located in the middle of the forest, consists mainly of streams and tall sequoias. Is a prominent representative of American rural life with stereotypical residents.
