Pride Lands

The Pride Lands is an African-styled world based on Disney's 1994 movie The Lion King, as well as its 1998 sequel The Lion King II: Simba's Pride and the 2016 cartoon The Lion Guard. It is the homeworld of the titular lion king Simba, as well as his father Mufasa, mate Nala and evil uncle Scar.
Due to the lack of human characters in the Lion King franchise, outsiders will be transformed into African animals upon entering.
