New World

The New World is the second playable region in Anno 1800, which is based on South America in the 19th century. This region can be unlocked after completing a discovery expedition (Finding Isabel Sarmento), which is available as soon as first  Artisans move into your cities & you've progressed far enough in the Old World story (if playing Campaign mode). The main role of the New World is to support the Old World population with required resources.

As every region, the New World consists of multiple handcrafted islands of varying sizes, fertilities and resources. Islands characteristics and arrangement depends on game settings chosen when creating the game.

Besides yourself and other expanding players (either AI or human) also neutral trader Isabel Sarmento and pirate Jean La Fortune can be located in this region. They settle separate special islands.

Population

Population in the New World is divided into two tiers:

•  Jornaleros
•  Obreros

Production

Almost all needs of the New World population focus on goods produced on crop and animal farms. Some resources aren't used in the New World but can be transported to the European regions to turn them into advanced goods used by  Artisans,  Engineers and  Investors.
