Land of Silence

The is a small samurai-led country on a distant continent, that is beyond the reach of shinobi authority. It is surrounded by mountains with a rural economy by the standards of the Land of Fire. Its capital city is Curtain Village. The Land of Silence was once led by a daimyō, but the daimyō was overthrown by Gengo and his Enlightened Ones sometime before the Fourth Shinobi World War. Years after Gengo was removed from power by the actions of the Shinobi Union, the country fell into lawlessness, where the world's fugitives gathered, harbouring resentment for the shinobi of the Five Great Shinobi Countries.
