Changes: Baja California

Revision as of 18:39, 8 September 2016

Baja California is a state in Mexico and is a minor location in Season 2a, and a major location for Season 2b.

Pre-Apocalypse

Not much is known about Baja California before the outbreak, except, like most of the rest of the world, 'business as usual' seemed to be the order of the day. The state capital is Mexicali, located in the east, while its' largest city is Tijuana. Baja California shared a border with California in The United States of America. The boarder crossing between Tijuana and San Diego was a major border crossing. Thomas Abigail was a wealthy businessman living near Rosarito (a town in Baja California) where he and his family also ran a vineyard.

Post-Apocalypse

Like its American neighbor to the north, Baja California is not fairing well. The town of Rosarito (and it is implied that Tijuana, also,) has been overrun, as has much of the surrounding countryside. There is no active police or military presence in the state (on land, at least), and (from the way the comic-con trailer for Season 2b is edited), not alone is the town of Rosarito overrun, but the city of Tijuana and its surrounding area has been taken over by both street gangs who are pushing their influence further and further and by the Infected, who are roaming in moderate size hordes in several parts of the region. The main highway from Rosarito to Tijuana is littered with abandoned cars and car accidents- at least some of which have infected inside, as well as many small towns appearing to be empty.
