Location from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III by Infinity Ward / Activision
A fictional country on the eastern edge of the Black Sea — occupied by Russia for two decades, liberated by Farah and the ULF, and now a contested theater in the Konni Group's European campaign.
Urzikstan is the emotional center of the Modern Warfare trilogy. It's where Farah grew up under occupation, where she built the ULF, where Price and his team first worked with the resistance, and where the geopolitical stakes of the reboot's world are most visible in the human cost. By MW3, Urzikstan is formally allied with the West but operationally contested — Konni Group has cells throughout the country and the ULF is fighting on multiple fronts simultaneously. The Warzone map Urzikstan replaced Al Mazrah as the primary battle zone, signaling the country's centrality to the current campaign.
Arid coastal peninsula with a mix of urban infrastructure and rough terrain. The capital is Sakhra, where the US Embassy is located. The landscape mixes Mediterranean-adjacent coastline with the contested interior — mountains, dry valleys, and the kinds of terrain that favors ambush over open engagement. The ULF flag has been flying since Barkov fell.
