Sapata [1] is a Dorok Principality. It is located in the west of the Dorok Principalities, near the Kamatara Desert.
Sapata has a City-Fortress [2], captured by the Torumekian Third Army during the Main Campaign of the Torumekian invasion, which was the southern-most Torumekian outpost. Dorok forces beseiged the Torumekian forces, surrounding the city with trenches and emplaced cannon [3].
After the collapse of the Periphery Campaign, Kushana, with a much reduced force comprised of the Armored Corvette, continued through the Sea of Corruption and invaded Sapata.
Kushana's Armored Corvette crash land at the City-Fortress, amidst anti-aircraft fire and shelling [4] while the Unnamed General is attempting to leave in his own corvette.
Kushana takes over the Fortress as the soldiers side with her [5]. With the Third Army on her side, she implements an audacious plan to break out of the siege and retreat [6]. It involves blowing a sally-port in the castle wall and a cavalry charge into the Dorok lines.
Nausicaä agrees to ride in the cavalry charge if Kushana releases the Dorok prisoners [7].
After the death of Kai, Nausicaä departs Sapata [8] in Mehve.
