Tarnished Coast

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki

The Guild Wars Wiki has an article on Tarnished Coast.

The Tarnished Coast is the lush, forested southern sub-region of the Maguuma Jungle. The area is dotted with ruins of an unknown civilization later remodeled by the asura to suit their taste. When the destroyer threat first appeared 250 years ago, the asura were driven out of the Depths of Tyria. Exiled to the surface, they took refuge in this region and thrived there since. Their capital city of Rata Sum lies in the heart of the Tarnished Coast.

In addition to the asura, the hylek and sylvari call this place home; the latter of which were born in the Tarnished Coast. The sylvari city, The Grove, is located in the eastern part of the Tarnished Coast.
