Iwagakure is the hidden village of the Land of Earth, and as one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Iwagakure has a Kage of its own as a leader known solely as the Tsuchikage. Iwa is a village that is known for its sturdiness in the world thanks to the natural mountains that shape the inside and outside of the village and provide a near perfect defense for it and its citizens. The shinobi of Iwa are known to be similar to the mountains of their home, sturdy and with an unbreakable spirit that will make many think twice about challenging them and the village.
