:couple: Neighboring Kingdoms/Allies :couple:
The land of the munchkins is a kingdom/village within the Land of Oz. It is located in the East part of the Land of Oz. The Land of Oz is one of the lands in The World of Stories, and it has been cut off from the rest of the lands, similar to Wonderland. Neighboring kingdoms are the South, which is the country of the Quadlings, the West country, which is where the Winkies live and is ruled by the wicked Witch of the West, and lastly The North, which is home to the Good Witch of the North.

Munchkins: The people who live in this land of the East. A group of the queerest people Dorothy had ever seen. They were not as big as the grown folk she had always been used to; but neither were they very small. In fact, they seemed about as tall as Dorothy, who was a well-grown child for her age, although they were, so far as looks go, many years older. All were oddly dressed. They wore round hats that rose to a small point a foot above their heads, with little bells around the brims that tinkled sweetly as they moved. The hats of the men were blue. The men were dressed in blue, of the same shade as their hats, and wore well polished boots with a deep roll of blue at the tops. The men, Dorothy thought, were about as old as Uncle Henry, for two of them had beards.
Witches (formerly): There were only four witches in all the Land of Oz, and two of them, those who live in the North and the South, are good witches. Those who dwelt in the East and the West were, indeed, wicked witches; but now that Dorthy killed one of them, there is but one wicked Witch in all the Land of Oz—the one who lives in the West.
Kalidahs: Monstrous beasts with bodies like bears and heads like tigers, and with claws so long and sharp.

:confetti_ball: Festivals / Celebrations :confetti_ball:
Celebrate their freedom from the bondage of the wicked witch: At a house rather larger than the rest, the home of one of the richest Munchkins in the land, on the green lawn before it many men and women were dancing. Five little fiddlers played as loudly as possible and the people were laughing and singing.
:moyai: Significant Locations :moyai:
There were neat fences at the sides of the road, painted a dainty blue color. The housesof the Munchkins were odd looking dwellings, for each was round, with a big dome for a roof. All were painted blue, for in this country of the East blue was the favorite color. Later, there were no fences at all by the road side now, and the land was rough and untilled.
:meat_on_bone: Food / Staple Diet :meat_on_bone:
There were fields of grain and vegetables in abundance. Evidently the Munchkins were good farmers and able to raise large crops. A big table near by was loaded with delicious fruits and nuts, pies and cakes, and many other good things to eat. Nuts and fine fruits.

:cherry_blossom: Flora :cherry_blossom:
There were lovely patches of green sward all about, with stately trees bearing rich and luscious fruits. Banks of gorgeous flowers were on every hand. The country is pretty. There is a tree full of nuts. Green meadows dotted with bright flowers and all the road bordered with trees hanging full of delicious fruits. Plenty of flowers and fruit trees to cheer them.
Poppies: Lovely flowers which now became so thick that the ground was carpeted with them. There were big yellow and white and blue and purple blossoms, besides great clusters of scarlet poppies, which were so brilliant in color they almost dazzled Dorothy's eyes. They now came upon more and more of the big scarlet poppies, and fewer and fewer of the other flowers; and soon they found themselves in the midst of a great meadow of poppies. Now it is well known that when there are many of these flowers together their odor is so powerful that anyone who breathes it falls asleep, and if the sleeper is not carried away from the scent of the flowers, he sleeps on and on forever.
🦌Fauna 🦌
Birds with rare and brilliant plumage sang and fluttered in the trees and bushes and the birds sang sweet. There are birds around and squirrels. There were few birds in this part of the forest, for birds love the open country where there is plenty of sunshine. But now and then there came a deep growl from some wild animal hidden among the trees. Also in the forest are elephants, tigers, bears, and deer. Singing of the brightly colored birds.
:sunny: Climate / Weather :sunny:
The sun shone bright. Plenty of sunshine to cheer them on.
:mount_fuji: Terrain :mount_fuji:
This is a country of marvelous beauty. At the East, not far from here, there is a great desert, and none could live to cross it. There were several roads near by, but the road to the City of Emeralds is paved with yellow brick so you cannot miss it. Towards evening they came to a great forest, where the trees grew so big and close together that their branches met over the road of yellow brick.

:ocean: Water Sources :ocean:
A little way off was a small brook, rushing and sparkling along between green banks, and murmuring. There is a little spring of clear water. To their great joy the trees became thinner the farther they advanced, and in the afternoon they suddenly came upon a broad river, flowing swiftly just before them. On the other side of the water they could see the road of yellow brick running through a beautiful country.
