Area Zero



Area Zero (エリアゼロ) is a local from Mega Man Zero 4 where the space colony Eurasia "crashed" 200 years ago during the Maverick Wars (Mega Man X5), and nature became abundant due to an environmental control system that was left active after the crash. Left alone even during the Elf Wars and cordoned off, it is one of the last habitable areas on Earth aside from Neo Arcadia. It was for this reason that a caravan moved from Neo Arcadia to this location to escape from Dr. Weil's tyranny. Later, a mobile unit from the Resistance is stationed outside the area for protection. To leave humans without a place to escape, Dr. Weil sends Craft and the Einherjar Eight Warriors to destroy Area Zero, and they are just a diversion while he prepares Ragnarok. After Neo Arcadia's destruction by the Ragnarok, most of its population moved to Area Zero.

Trivia

 * As the habitants from Neo Arcadia moved to Area Zero, it is believed Area Zero became an Inner areas from the Mega Man ZX series.
 * The "Zero" from the name "Area Zero" may hold the notion of "begining", being a reference to the initial state of Earth, as Area Zero is one of the few nature-filled areas at that time.
