In the game
A large desert map of the British Sinai campaign in 1916, centred on the hilltop town of Mazar, the British Empire against the Ottomans.
The real place
Bir el Mazar was an Ottoman post on the old coastal route across Sinai, raided by British and ANZAC mounted troops in September 1916.
Visiting
North Sinai is closed to most travellers, so treat this as a map pin rather than a trip.
