Land of Grass

Country Leader:
The current leader of The Grass Country is unknown; the pictured individual on the Grass Daimyo page is one of the feudal lords from the country. He is probably not the head daimyo however.

Country Background:
Land of Grass contains some widely varied landscapes with forests, grasslands, mountains, rivers and bamboo thickets dotting it. The country shares borders with Earth, Fire,  Rain and  Waterfall. Because the country lies between Earth and Fire, it has been in invaded by the Earth Country during previous ninja wars. To avoid The Earth Country gaining a foothold next to the Fire Country border, many Leaf ninja came to Hidden Grass's aid during the war. This resulted in many skirmishes taking place within its borders.

Giant Bamboo Forest:
One of the unique landscapes of the series, a giant bamboo thicket forest marks a portion of the country. It was here that Kakashi Hatake, Obito Uchiha and Rin were ambushed on their way to Kannabi Bridge.

Kannabi Bridge:
The Kannabi Bridge was destroyed approximately 13 years before the start of the series. One of the major supply line paths for the invading Hidden Stone ninja, its destruction helped turn the tide of their war against them.

Tenchi Bridge:
The Tenchi ("Heaven and Earth") Bridge was a meeting point between Akatsuki member Sasori and his spy from Sound. The bridge spans two cliffs with a ravine extending far below.
