Correction: it's not in Brazil, it's in the Andean area. And Bungie made a big deal about it because people were -blam!-ing dying there and they wanted to get a lot of people involved by bribing us

The mountains in the background of the tower match those in Pokhara Nepal. Do you believe that bungie made the earth and moon rotations and orbits 100% accurate? And if they did, do you think they accounted for the fact that earth is not a perfect sphere? And still, why fly half the world away to reclaim land? That makes no logical sense. If the city was in the Andes areas, we would be fighting in places around there. You can't reclaim land that's half a world away and surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Half the world away isn't far when we can travel to other planets in seconds.
