(Moving the stuff about the race to Gerudo - there's no "Zora (BOTW)", "Goron (BOTW)", "Sheikah (BOTW)", "Rito (BOTW)" or "Hylian (BOTW)" page, those are just on the base race pages.) |

{{quote|Gerudo is located in the southwest of [[Hyrule]] and has both a massive desert and rocky mountains. The difference between the [[Gerudo Desert]]'s scorching-hot days and frigid nights is extreme, but hearty [[Molduga]] monsters, [[Sand Seal|sand seals]], and [[Voltfruit]]-bearing cacti thrive in spite of the tremendous temperature swings. There are oases in the desert as well, and the [[Gerudo]] have built their own city in the center of the desert around the largest one. Isolated by [[Gerudo Canyon]] and the Gerudo Desert, the culture of the Gerudo developed separately from the rest of Hyrule and is unique for that reason.|[[Creating a Champion]], page 315}} | |||

*The [[ | *The Province has the lowest concentration of [[Korok Seed]]s in the game, with just 106 (combining the [[Gerudo Tower]] and [[Wasteland Tower]] Regions). That's less than 1/9 of all the seeds in the game, for an area that covers roughly 1/6 of the map on its own. | ||
* The geographical features of the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]], as well as the presence of the [[Gerudo Great Skeleton]] and the marine-lifelike [[Molduga]]s imply that it may have been a vast sea in the past, as the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] leading to the desert may have been carved out of solid rock by a now dried river that led to the aforementioned sea, and the various archways at the [[Great Cliffs]] may have been water-carved too. The [[Karusa Valley]] may have also been carved by a glacier from the [[Gerudo Highlands]]. | *The [[Voltfruit]], the [[Molduga]], the [[Wasteland Coyote]], and the [[Sand Seal]] are native only to the Gerudo province and cannot be found anywhere else in [[Hyrule]]. The [[Hydromelon]] is native to the Gerudo Province, but can be found elsewhere in Hyrule too. [[Zap Shroom]]s are also found in the Highlands and the Gerudo Canyon, but they are considerably easier to farm in Akkala. | ||

* The presence of [[Hydromelon]]s and [[Voltfruit]] cacti in the desert implies that there are numerous pockets of water under the desert sands. | |||
* Most of the stone in the ruins of the province, as well as [[Gerudo Town]] itself, is implied to have come from the marble/limestone quarry east of the [[Gerudo Desert Gateway]], though no Gerudo or Hyruleans are found there. The causeways flanking the [[Gerudo Canyon Pass]] may have been related to the quarry as well, though some of those causeways were shown in a flashback when the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris]] was dug out. However, older constructs are shown to have been carved out of the red stone from the mountains surrounding the desert, including the [[Seven Heroines]] and the [[Eighth Heroine]]. | * Most of the stone in the ruins of the province, as well as [[Gerudo Town]] itself, is implied to have come from the marble/limestone quarry east of the [[Gerudo Desert Gateway]], though no Gerudo or Hyruleans are found there.
