Quadling Country
The Quadling Country is the southern division of L. Frank Baum's fictional Land of Oz, first introduced in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900). It is distinguished by the color red, worn by most of the local inhabitants called the Quadlings as well as the color of their surroundings. Like the Munchkin Country, the outer regions of the Quadling Country are rich, being inhabited by kind and friendly people, while the areas closer to the Emerald City (most of the regions between the mountains of the Hammerheads, the enclave of Dainty China Country and the Forest of the Fighting Trees) are forbidden and dangerous.
