One of the four anctient cities virtually reconstructed in Assassin's Creed
Damascus is the capital and largest city of Syria.
Jerusalem is an ancient city of the Middle East and has been continuously inhabited for nearly 5,000 years. Today it is at the heart of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The city where the Assassin's creed resides. Real info: Masyaf and the surrounding town functioned as the capital of a Nizari emirate from the middle of the 12th century until the end of the 13th century. Saladin besieged it in May of 1176 but the siege did not last long and it concluded with a truce. Current research indicates it was held by the Assassins at that time.
The Middle East is a region that spans southwestern Asia and northeastern Africa.
Many games take place in the Middle East, but it is often in a fictional country or a country that is never mentioned by name. In some games, this is done in order to avoid political controversies, evident in many modern military games such as Metal Gear Solid 4. In many fantasy games, a generic Middle-Eastern setting is used.
