Geography:
The geography around Apito area is located on the edge of a large lake near Oured, Osea's capital city. Beyond the airport and city small rolling hills and a river runs from the lake.

Background Information:
Apito International Air Port, located in mid-Osea had grew into one of the largest Air Ports on the Planet. It had become an International Air Port, further opening up Osea to the world by taking in flights from different Air Line companies, such as Air Ixiom from the Usean Continent. The Air Port had no history of any large problems or scares, but in 2003 a member of "A World With No Boundaries" was arrested there when he had passport problems.

Operation Long Harpoon:
In 2010 the Air Port was suddenly attacked, at night by Yuktobanian Special Forces. After Osean Aircraft were diverted to intercepting incoming aircraft, Yuktobanian Tanks and Troops unloaded from unmarked, believed to be Osean Air Force Transports and began to open fire on the Flight Terminals, the Air Port Corridors and Air Liners on the ground. They effectively blocked the Runway, leaving many international flights to be stuck in the air, not only threatened by Yuktobanian Fighter aircraft, but also extremely low on fuel. Fortunately, an Osean Fighter Squadron was scrambled and the Yuktobanian Forces were destroyed. However, in Bana City, Osea, a Gas attack was underway, making it hard for the Osean Military to respond rapidly.
