How to unlock the Rise of the Resistance achievement in XCOM 2 - Definitive Guide
From the Avenger, you can access the Geoscape (which is a digital map of the earth that shows several radio towers spread out across the globe). These radio towers are located in various regions, indicated by a glowing blue outline. When you begin a new game, you are given access to a random region (where the XCOM HQ is located) and are required to "contact" other regions by scanning radio towers with the Avenger on the Geoscape. This takes a few in-game days and costs Intel (can be earned as a mission reward or by scanning the HQ). You can only contact regions adjacent to regions you are already in contact with and the amount of Intel required to contact a region increases with distance from the HQ. You can somewhat offset this cost by building Radio Relays at any radio tower you have contacted. Contact any region for this trophy. You must make contact with a region to access a mission in that region so this should come naturally.
