Natlan consists of six different tribes, constantly at war with one another, further complicated by the arrival of enemies seeking to steal the nation’s treasures. The Pyro Archon has made this land a place for warriors unafraid of death, with the motto: “The winner must light the fire, and the loser will turn to ash.”

Location of Natlan
Natlan is situated to the west of the Sumeru Desert, specifically near the Girdle of the Sand. This information was hinted at by NPC August Lovelace during the World Quest “Recollections of a Fontainian.” He mentions that Natlan is located on the other side of the Sumeru Desert.
Based on the videos released by HoYoverse, Natlan appears to be filled with forests, deserts, canyons, glaciers, mesas, and hidden lava rivers. The geographical features of Natlan were also discussed in the weapon Battle Pass “Talking Stick,” where the region is depicted as a wilderness area where dragons gather, surrounded by many volcanoes and hot springs.
