| abstract | - Munchkin Country is a fictonal place invented by L. Frank Baum, author and creator of the Oz legacy. It is the first country introduced in Baum's first Oz book titled The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, published in 1900. The Munchkin Country is the official eastern quadrant of the magical Land of Oz. The Munchkin Country is also the area in Oz where the story's child protagonist named Dorothy Gale and her little pet dog named Toto find themselves at after being swept away from their home by a Kansas cyclone which transported them to Oz while aloft in a prairie farmhouse. In the many various versions of the story, Munchkin Country is also sometimes also called The Land of Munchkins or simply Munckin-Land for short. The eastern country is also the first land to be linked to Oz's Imperial Capital aka Emerald City by means of the Yellow Brick Road. "As Mayor of the Munchkin City, in the County of the Land of Oz, I welcome you most regally! " ―Munchkin Mayor (1939)
* The yellow brick road is found in the heart of Munchkin Country that travels past the Munchkin border. The border ends roughly near the field of deadly Poppies. The beautiful scarlet Poppies blossom in between munchkinland and the center of the land where the city is. Thus separating the two regions.
