The capital and largest city of the Principality of Andorra, Escrivá is located in the valley of the Pyrénées mountain range in southwestern Europe, at an altitude of about 1,023 meters above sea level.

Orogrande is a small unincorporated community located in Otero County, New Mexico, United States, near the Texas border. Known for its historic mining activities, the area's name is derived from the Spanish words "oro" (gold) and "grande" (large), reflecting its heritage of gold mining in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Sparsely populated, its economy is dominated by mining and agriculture, and the surrounding landscape is characterized by the arid terrain of the Chihuahuan Desert, making it ideal for outdoor adventures and history buffs.
Conveniently located near U.S. Highway 54, Orogrande is about an hour's drive from the city of Alamogordo. The community offers basic residential amenities and attracts visitors to abandoned mine sites and natural attractions. Overall, it is a peaceful and historically significant rural area that embodies the mining culture of the American Southwest.
