Goa Kingdom stretches over a large area that mostly consists of farmlands. The capital is huge and has a city with green mountains around it. These mountains are home to several bandits too but the population of his place is unknown.

There are many places inside the Goa Kingdom like Foosha Village (where Luffy met Shanks for the first time), Mt Colubo (it is a huge green mountain behind Foosha Village and the home to a lot of bandits), Midway Forest (this is the forest between Gray Terminal and Mt. Colubo), Gray Terminal (this place is treated like a junkyard and has a lot of crime and diseases) etc.

The people who lived on the island are Monkey D. Luffy, Monkey D. Dragon, Portgas D. Ace, Sabo, Makino, Curly Dadan, Woop Slap, Porchemy, King of Goa, Didit, Bluejam, Sterry, Lord of the Coast etc.

Wildlife on the Island

There are cows on the outskirts of the village. Mt. Colubo is known to be home to dangerous giant creatures like tigers, alligators, snakes etc. Luffy, Ace and Sabo usually used to go on a hunt for these animals to train themselves to survive out in the wild.

Trivia

Goa Kingdom is the first to appear in the series. It was introduced when Foosha Village was shown.
Louguetow was the beginning of Roger’s journey, while Dawn island was Luffy’s. This show a relationship between them as ‘Logue’ refers to the ‘prologue’(start of a story) and ‘epilogue’(end of the story). ‘Dawn’ usually means the end of the day and the start of the next day. This shows that both these names refer to the beginning or end of something.
