The Land of Wind (風の国, Kaze no Kuni) is one of the more prominent countries. It is located to the south-west of the Land of Fire and borders the Land of Rivers and Amegakure. Its government leader was the Wind Daimyō but now is ran by the kazekage. The country covers a vast realm, but that realm is largely composed of deserts. 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 on good terms with the Land of Fire, with a great deal of trade going on between the two countries.
The "Sand Dumpling" (砂団子, Suna Dango; "Sand Dango") is a regional speciality of the Land of Wind. A unique characteristic of the Sand Dumpling is the soy flour, which is prepared especially to resemble sand. They apparently taste very good. The desert of sand is a giant desert that everyone has to pass through just to get to the sand village. It is also completely out in the open so it is near impossible to defend against an attack and to do a sneak attack.
