Ghost of Tsushima has 56 Mongol Territories you can liberate (Occupied Areas / Outposts / Strongholds / Farms). This guide shows all their locations.
Liberating all Occupied Areas unlocks the following trophies:
- Hero of the People – Liberate 12 occupied areas in Izuhara.
- A Fight For The Isle… – Liberate all occupied areas in Izuhara.
- Good Riddance – Liberate 8 occupied areas in Toyotama.
- Securing Sanctuary… – Liberate all occupied areas in Toyotama.
- Mass Eviction – Liberate 7 occupied areas in Kamiagata.
- A New Safe Haven – Liberate all occupied areas in Kamiagata.
- Master Liberator – Liberate the entirety of Tsushima Island.
There are 3 Regions in Ghost of Tsushima. Region 1: Izuhara has 24 Occupied Areas, Region 2: Toyotama has 17 Occupied Areas, Region 3: Kamiagata has 15 Occupied Areas.
None of them are missable. You can still free-roam after the story to liberate them. In fact, after the story they all get marked on the map for you automatically! This takes out a lot of the search work for you. It’s also worth noting that some of these (Farms in particular) don’t show up until you reach the 2nd Region. You automatically liberate some Outposts as part of the story: 2 in Izuhara (Komatsu Forge, Castle Kaneda), 1 in Toyotama (Castle Shimura), 1 in Kamiagata (Izumi Village). These story-related ones you will conquer automatically.
Another thing you should know is that liberating all Occupied Areas completely clears the fog of war in their respective Region. So conquering all 24 in the 1st Region, will completely uncover that map. This way you won’t need to unfog the map manually, thus saving you a lot of time. This will also reveal question marks for all Collectibles and Side Quests! Thus the search becomes much easier.
Your first step in every region should be to finish the story missions and then liberating all Occupied Mongol Territories. This reveals the Collectibles and Side Tales on the map as question marks (basically like Viewpoints in other open world games). If you can’t find one of these Territories, you need to advance the story further.
Below is a map for each Region (the story-related areas have already been liberated on the maps), plus zoomed-out/zoomed-in locations of each individual Mongol Territory.

Finch says
I am in the first area and according to the game I ‘ve cleared 17/24. But then I checked this guide and I went to ohama fishing village. Never been there before but it was already liberated. Same as kuta farmstead. Is it a bug?
PowerPyx says
These actually become occupied by Mongols later when reaching Act 2. It’s normal and not a bug. You need to backtrack for them later. I’ve added a note about this (it’s the same for all farms in Region 1). Thanks for your question!
Edwin says
I’m in Act 3 and liberated all regions but it shows 14/15 in the last village and I did them all! Do I have to complete the story in order for it to count?
Port says
I think Izumi village is the last one and if so yes you do have to do the mission
