Bota Magna

Bota Magna, or the Great Jungle, was originally a forest region of Spherus Magna, and after The Shattering became a moon of Bara Magna. Later, Mata Nui returned it to its original position on Spherus Magna.

History
Bota Magna was originally the name of a jungle on Spherus Magna. This jungle was home to the Jungle Tribe, the Iron Tribe, and the mountain range in Bota Magna, which hosted the Rock Tribe. The Great Being who was known to have touched the Ignika had been imprisoned on the planet inside a cell for going insane after touching hte mask. A tribe of Vorox, led by a being called Kabrua, ended up here after the Shattering occured. The conditions on Bota Magna kept them from regressing like the Bara Magna Vorox. They also built a city on the planet. Due to the Core War when The Shattering occurred, Bota Magna, with the Northern Frost broke loose from the rest of Spherus Magna and formed one of it's moons.

Reign of Shadows
The Great Being, who is said to have touched the Ignika, sensed Vezon with the Olmak. He then used his power of speaking between dimensions to contact Vezon to try and free himself from his prison. Vezon recruited Miserix, Axonn, Brutaka, Artakha, Lewa Nuva, Helryx, Tuyet, Kapura and Hafu, beings that were shot out of space by Teridax (with the exception of Lewa, who went out on purpose). Later, during the final battle on Bara Magna, a bravity blast from Teridax struck the moon and pulled it back towards Bara Magna. Along with Aqua Magna, Bota Magna rejoined Bara Magna to construct Spherus Magna once again. Giant bio-mechanical creatures created by the Great Beings watched as areas where trees didn't grow anymore, grew again.

The Great Forest (Bota Magna)
Bota Magna was known for its massive jungle. This jungle was home to a number of Earth and Jungle villagers, as well as a number of Sand Tribe members who, unlike their Bara Magna counterparts, did not have to fight each other for resources as all their resources were available. They did, however, have to ward off the inhabitants of the Great Northern Frost, as those beings were far more desperate for the resources of the forest.

The Great Northern Frost (Dura Magna)
Following the Shattering, a great number of Agori and Glatorain of all Tribes (left there after the final battle for the energized protodermis tap) were stranded on the Great Frost, a snowy wasteland. These were a far more desperate people, and although they staged numerous attempts to take the Great Forest and its resources, but the Jungle and Earth Agori stubbornly held on. Full-on war for the jungle was mounting just as the planetoid was sucked back to Bara Magna and Bota Magna rejoined the larger Spherus Magna. Following Mata Nui's "blessing", the majority the Great Northern Frost (as well as a small percentage of the Great Forest) was reborn and rendered capable of bearing vegetation. As such, the wasteland became more of a tundra.
