The Frontier was a large tract of countryside located in the American north-east. Many battles of the French and Indian War and the American Revolutionary War took place here.
The Frontier consisted mostly of wilderness, containing cliffs, forests, rivers, and mountains. It was also inhabited by a variety of animals, including bears, beavers, deer, wolves, rabbits, and elk.[1]
While Boston and New York City were primary settlements located near the Frontier, the countryside itself also contained several small Native American and European ones; including the towns of Lexington, Concord, Charlestown, and Connor Kenway's Mohawk village. One could also find logging camps, mills, and trading posts.[2]

As the war dragged on, the towns would change during the preparation or aftermath of a battle. At different times, one could find battalions of men readying for a charge, or injured soldiers by abandoned tents.[2]
The Assassin Connor Kenway was particularly skilled in navigating the Frontier, and was able to climb and free-run across tree branches; granting him an advantage over enemies traveling below.[1]
Trivia
- The Frontier is 1.5 times larger than Rome in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, and holds around 30% of the main storyline content for Assassin's Creed III. The Frontier is the largest map in the Assassin's Creed series.
