Termina is a fictional country from the video game The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. The country is composed of various environments ranging from swamps and forests to mountains and canyons. The capital city of Termina is Clock Town. Termina is located on an unknown terrain and is often referred to as the alternate dimension of the land Hyrule, which is featured in a number of games in the Zelda series.Geography of TerminaGeology
Termina is not a kingdom, but more like a country. Its capital city is the lively Clock Town, located in the middle of the country. The landscape is very different from one area to another. Immediately to the West of Clock Town is the Great Bay, which is home to a small laboratory on a platform slightly out to sea, as well as the Gerudo Pirates, who have their Fortress there. To the north of Clock Town are the mountains, there lies the Highest point of Termina, Snowhead Temple. South of Clock Town, the Southern Swamp is located, and to the east of Clock Town is a canyon containing the Lost Kingdom of Ikana.Terminan geography
Civilizational terminan activity is largely concentrated within Clock Town, but there isn't any evidence of farming, so it may be possible that the majority of food that Terminans consume comes from the sea. While Terminans live mainly within Clock Town, a few people live elsewhere, such as Romani and Cremia, who live on Romani Ranch within Milk Road to the South-West of Clock Town. Gorons live in the mountains to the north, Zoras live on the sea to the west, and Dekus live in the swamp of the south. There does not seem to be one ruling race, but each race's home is like a City-State, each with its own government system and traditions.Areas of TerminaClock Town
Clock Town is the apparent center of Terminian affairs, located in the exact middle of the land. Inhabited mostly by humans, Clock Town is divided into 5 sub-sections: North, East, West and South, as well as an area known as The Laundry Pool. East Clock Town consists of a few games as well as an inn and a "Milk Bar". The bulk of East Clock Town's area is taken up by the Stock Pot Inn, a twenty-four hour operational hotel, sporting a large bell. It is also home to the entrance of the hideout for a secret society known as the "Bombers". North Clock Town consists of a large park which takes up the entire area, except for a Great Fairy Shrine in a corner. There are always children playing in the park and there are occasional sightings of a Keaton. West Clock Town is the city's main commercial center. It includes various stores, some of which are of a questionable legal status, such as the Curiosity Shop, a shop that only opens at night time and deals only in stolen goods. This trading of stolen artefacts contributes to several subquests in game. West Clock Town is also where one can find the local post office and bank, as well as a lottery. South Clock Town is the town's main hub. It is connected to all four of the other sections of the city and to the outside world. Every year, the Festival of Time occurs in South Clock Town, making it a cultural center. A large clock tower is in the center of South Clock Town, hence the name "Clock Town".Termina Field
Termina Field is a large mainly treeless area that encircles Clock Town and borders Termina's various mountains, valleys and bodies of water. A system of roads spanning the field connects Clock Town with the other regions of Termina, including Snowhead, Great Bay, Ikana Canyon and Woodfall. Although vegetated mostly by various grasses, Termina Field is far from topographically featureless. Many species of noncivilizational animals populate the area, chiefly Chu-Chus. Termina Field is the perfect place for a horse ride.Southern Swamp
The Southern Swamp, known as Woodfall, is a lush swamp in Southern Termina. Woodfall is very aquatic and lush, and is inhabited by an abundance of fauna. Woodfall's chief species, the Deku Scrubs, have a palace nestled deep in the Swamp, near Woodfall Temple, the Deku Scrubs' place of worship, and the root of the poison leaking into the swamp waterways. There are places in which humans live, and their businesses are high on platforms. One is the Swamp Tourist Center, where you can get a boat tour of the swamp, and the other is the Magic Hag's Potion Shop,where a number of helpful potions are sold. Other areas of interest include the Woods of Mystery, a maze like wood which is very much like the Lost Woods in Ocarina of Time, and the Swamp Shooting Gallery, in which you can test your skills with your bow.Northern Mountains
The Northern Mountain area, known as Snowhead, the pinnacle of height in Termina. Snowhead is home to the Goron race, who have made a city on the snowy slopes. The Goron city includes the main chamber- a huge place of meeting for the Gorons that takes up much of the city. Inside you will find a shop that sells assorted goods, and a chamber in which the Elder's son lives. Other places in the city include a Powder Keg shop and a Goron Shrine. Outside the borders of the city lies the Mountain Smithy, a quaint chalet with two smiths that will improve your sword for a price. Next to the Smithy, high on a cliff is the final resting place of the great Darmani, with a hot spring that provides warmth in the bitter cold of Snowhead. The Goron's temple is Snowhead Temple, a huge peak in the mountain range surrounded by a huge chasm. Snowhead Temple is where the bitter, endless winter, which is torturing the Gorons, stems from.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Termina ]
