The Five Great Nations
​

• The Land of Fire
• The Land of Wind
• The Land of Earth
• The Land of Water
• The Land of Lightning

  The Land of Fire (???, Hi no Kuni) is one of the largest and most powerful countries in the series, and the home of the main characters of the series. Its government leader is the Fire Daimy?. The Land of Fire was the first country to adopt a ninja village, Konohagakure, a custom other countries would soon adopt. The Land of Fire is appropriately oriented towards the element of fire, typically having very bright and warm weather. While not the physically largest country, it has the largest hidden village.
  
  
  The Land of Fire has been involved in wars with the Land of Lightning, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Wind. In the quiet years that followed, the Land of Fire slowly recovered, and became accustomed to peace.

  The Land of Wind (???, Kaze no Kuni) is one of the more prominent countries in the series. It is located to the south-west of the Land of Fire and borders the Land of Rivers and Amegakure. Its government leader is the Wind Daimy?. The country covers a vast realm, but is significantly composed of deserts and thus has little productivity.[1] Because there is very little rainfall throughout the year, the people of the country live in villages built on one of the desert's many oases. Despite the country's extremely harsh environment, it has a large population. Although they have warred with each other in the past, the Land of Wind is now on good terms with the Land of Fire, with a great deal of trade going on between the two countries.

  The Land of Earth (???, Tsuchi no Kuni) has seen little attention in the series thus far. It is located north-west of the Land of Fire. Its government leader is the Earth Daimy?. The country is mostly comprised of desolate, rocky areas. The border of the Land of Earth runs along a rocky mountain range, blocking communication with other countries. The wind blowing from the north passes over these mountains, carrying small rocks from the Land of Earth to the surrounding countries. This famous natural phenomenon is called "Rock Rain" (??,Gan'u).
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  The Land of Water (???, Mizu no Kuni) is composed of many islands, with each having its own unique traditions. The country's weather is typically cool and the islands are usually covered by mist. The islands themselves also feature many lakes. In some places, like the area where Haku grew up, it is very cold and snows quite a bit. The nation is oriented towards the element of water. Its government leader is the Water Daimy?.
  
  
  Little is currently known about it and it apparently leaves itself out of most political affairs, which is understandable considering that it is composed of vast islands relatively remote from the continent containing the other four major countries. What is known, however, is that the country used to be ravaged by many civil wars, during which clans with kekkei genkai were used extensively, causing many to view them as harbingers of war and death, leading to purges and genocide to the point of parents killing their own children. Many clans went into hiding, such as the Yuki clan.

  The Land of Lightning (???, Kaminari no Kuni) is located on a peninsula north-east of the Land of Fire and is one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries. Its government leader is the Lightning Daimy?. In the centre of the country are vast mountain ranges, whose many thunderstorms are said to give the country its name. From these mountain ranges, many rivers flow to the sea, creating a very crooked coastline that displays an impressive oceanic beauty. There are many hot springs located within the country.

Major Villages

• Kumogakure
• Iwagakure

  ~Village Hidden In The Leaves~
  
  Over the years, The Village Hidden in the Leaves has become the center of almost everything - trading, military and diplomacy are almost always taking place within Konohagakure and the Hokage themselves also seem to have much 'leeway' within the happenings of it's area - the people of Konoha village are known to be well rounded ninja who are always eager to offer a friendly hand to just about anyone who really needs it.
  
  The Village itself definitely reflects on its outlook as a Village of peace and multiculturalism. Being known as accepting, they work for their people and seem to always be expanding upon their Village. The village itself seems to have adapted to the wild, skyscrapers and beautiful walkways which scale all throughout the landscape. The village is truly one of the most beautiful sites to behold in the continent and is often an iconic place for tourism or Shinobi with high dreams and hopes.
  
  

  

  
  
  The lore of the village itself is also rich, with many building and businessmen dedicating their time and homes into creating a museum like building where they entertain and educate people of all kinds and ages on the great history which the Village holds - Ever since Third Shinobi world war Konohagakure has been known for holding some of the most brightest and most successful Shinobi and if you ever visit, the people there will be sure to make sure you have been educated on their Village's greatness in the past.

  ~Village Hidden In The Sand~
  
  
  
  
  Located within the Land of Wind, Sunagakure is a village which still holds true to it's name of being a rather 'hidden' village. Being surrounded by natural terrains created from the sandy desserts that surround it's landscape. A new and rather iconic way of actually finding the Village is by locating the only lake within the Land of Wind which actually flows right through Sungakure's only gates. While it use to be a big wall which was famous for it's core defense - once being destroyed in past struggles and wars the wall has been rebuilt with an entirely different architecture compared to the original wall.
  
  

  

  
  
  Using the natural mountains around, they have created a rather open gate, but do not underestimate it's security. With in built traps and defense mechanisms created by the numerous magnet, earth & fire user's who have created contraptions to react to almost any situation if the need arises. By only having two stairways leading from each side for entry. Most individuals are required to actually undergo a personality exam and identification is also needed to properly enter Sunagakure. While this process is rather passive and fairly easy to get by anyone who acts out of the law will quickly find themselves being hammered down. While most find the river flowing through it's main gate as a sign of weakness - it's quite the contrary and Sunagakure actually depends on their foes going the river way. As it is booby-trapped and the main source of most of Sunagakure's defense mechanisms take place. Sungakure is known for being resilient people, living under harsh conditions many will find the youth of this village grow up with more of a 'tough love' attitude and this shows through every day conversation. While brawls are a commonly accepted thing due to the rating of them happening Sunagakure is surprisingly the most law-filled and structured Village of all the major village's. Who also have dire consequences on those who decide to take a step too many across the line. It's kage building is also famed for being one of the largest in space and most sturdy - being mostly natural terrain with a bit of man-made work added onto it the Kage building has also become a place where people evacuate under emergencies as it is 'assured' that no harm can come to those within the Kazekage's mansion. This is due to a highly advanced and structured jutsu which places a invisible field around the Kazekage building which is capable of taking blows and also propelling any outsider's once the technique is activated. As such this is also Sunagakure's very last line of defense if all else fails and hasn't been used for generations.

  ~ Village Hidden In The Clouds~
  
  
  
  
  Kumogakure is probably one of the most mysterious Village's of them all, despite being a largly populated city with plenty to offer. The very landscape itself is known as a completemystery and something out of fairy tails, aparticulary known one is 'The Stairway to Heaven' as the people like to call it, aside from being on the ground, this 'stairway' to heaven leads up into the clouds itself where for some reason, islans float within the sky and on these islands are Kumogakure's Military and Kage building. Being focused on keeping their Shinobi strong - they are well known for being tough and skilled Shinobi at the very least, other's areknown as genius tacticians howeverKumogakure has been well known for a long time for it's Village's defense - very possibly being the most toughest and greatest of all the Village's. The city is well occupied and it's village structure is very well known to be very close together making it almost impossible not to find something interesting around every corner of this Village.
  
  (Stairway to heaven picture)
  
  
  
  
  
  On top, and in a ironic sense the 'second' floor of Kumogakure's Village is a place where they focus their time on keeping the peace within Kumogakure and other Village's, and to assure that if the need ever arises Kumogakure is more than prepared to either invade or defend themselves. Particular buildings here are designed for harsh and elite training and is often unaccessable to anyone who hasn't been personally invited by the Raikage himself first. Other buildings are used to keep a close eye on most of the city's landscape through chakra developed bubble like spheres which some what act as screens to see pretty much wherever they please in a certain area. This way, they are able to keep track of everything and everyone; while some find this anuncomfortable term to live with - other's appreciate the idea and feel self-security from it.

  ~Village Hidden In The Stones~
  
  
  
  
  At this current date, Iwagakure is the most technologically advanced Village in the continent and this is proven when entering their spacious Village - although the area it occupies is rather small and no larger than it was thousands of years ago.
  
  The mountains themselves now no longer cover many of the rooftops of the skyscraper buildings which are built here. The Village prides themselves on their inventions and countless mines within their perimeter - many strong men visit this place to find good paying work within the mines and many factories which produce most of the countries military weapons and artillery. While also thriving to push forward the age of technology through their relentless creative idea's and genius work with trinkets. It's also got a very high reputation for being a place where the night are spent with big parties, good food and drink to put a cheerful smile on everyone's faces, to this day it is one of the most recommended places to live, however they have no tolerance for criminals or those who like to cause trouble within their happy and cruisy environment.
  
  
  
  
  
  The Village's Kage building is located in the center of the Village and is also the largest building in the whole country. Proudly titled the 'Giant Tower Within The Mountains' many tourists often come just to visit the place and hopefully get a look inside it's large and very detailed interior, half of the building in fact is accessible to anyone at almost any given time and is used to entertain other's with pieces of history and a museum of different art and new inventions showcased, even auctions are held here.
  
  

Minor Villages

• Amegakure
• Haganegakure

• 
  
  ~Amegakure (Village Hidden In The Rain)~
  
  
  
  
  Located in an unknown part of the world not far off the Land of Water, the village which seems to be always raining thrives on it's industrial-like landscape and steampunk technology mostly deriving from the craftmanship of those in Iwagakure. Amegakure is mostly knownhowever for it's dark alleyways and gloomy living. While it's not always bright here, depending on where you go can also depend on how fun of a time you can have here. This is because Amegakure has been split into two sections, one section known as the 'Commons' is a place where Village's reside and mingle with little to worry about such as crimes and other unfortunate events.
  
  
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  ~Haganegakure (Village Hidden in Steel)~
  
  
  
  
  Haganegakure resides in the mountains in a mini-fortress style layout. It has exsisted in peace and prosperity for over twenty years under the rule of the First Haganekage due to the Hagane family Jutsu which is proven to be an ultimate defense mechanism from atop the walls surrounding the village. Most of the residents are blacksmiths with the Hagane family line being the most renown in the village. As such they generally export high quality weaponry across the country to those that need it. A festival aptly named the Moonlight Festival is held yearly wherein the Dance of a Thousand Blades is used to cut the ropes of several thousand lanterns at once, propelling them high into the night sky.
  
  
  
  
  
  Typically shinobi from the village are trained in Steel Release, most of them are also extremely skilled in taijutsu, making them a force to be reckoned with.
