The organization of the res folder is special for Android, and how you create those folders has a ton to do with how the resources are located ultimately.
You cannot create ANY folder, but you could create ANY named xml file, and add specific resources in there.
Check out this link for info about how to use this powerful feature of Android (using resources effectively is important for Android Devs).
