Frontier

The Frontier was a location generated by the Animus 3.0, representing the areas in the North American countryside visited by Haytham Kenway and Ratonhnhaké:ton.
During the Seven Years' War and subsequent American Revolutionary War, the countryside of Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey was gradually being settled by colonial hunters and traders, as the fur pelts of American animals were in high demand in England and France.
==Regions==
The Frontier was split into twelve hunting grounds, each containing four different types of wildlife:
===Black Creek===
Located at the most north-western area of the Frontier, Black Creek contained hares, beavers, elk, and bobcats. It contained Fort Duquesne in Pennsylvania, and the Grand Temple in Turin, New York.
===Concord===
Located roughly in the center of the Frontier, Concord, Massachusetts, included hares, raccoon, beavers, and deer. A trading post was located on the western edge of town, on the road leading to Valley Forge.

==Trivia==
*The Frontier represents the Northeast area of the United States. However, its depiction is a very fictionalized and compressed version of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. The big river in the middle possibly represents Hudson River.
*The Frontier is 1.5 times larger than Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood's Rome.
*The Frontier is the setting for about a third of the main storyline content for Assassin's Creed III.
*It is impossible to reduce notoriety in the Frontier.
**However, Connor's notoriety is predetermined by specific areas of the Frontier.
*In the Monmouth region, a red enemy dot appears on the mini map inside a small building with injured men inside. However, the dot belonged to a woman who paced the inside of the building, and did not attack Connor. It is unknown why she was identified on the mini map.
*During the events of The Tyranny of King Washington, the Frontier is devastated, with the colonial settlements and farms ruined and abandoned, and the land littered with the dead bodies of slaughtered civilians and Redcoats. Dead horses can also be found.
*The encampment at Valley Forge was inaccessible until Sequence 8, as the Continental Army had not yet made camp until 1778.
