			Due to the county's size, the weather changes from location to location. Cities to the north experience more temperate climates, while the heart of Kaze no Kuni is dominated by arid, windy deserts. In these deserts, air temperature quickly reach blazing degrees during the daytime, though it quickly dissipates once the sun goes down. While rain is infrequent for most parts of Kaze no Kuni, desert storms are often fierce and unpredictable, rising without notice and are capable of massive damage. The winds that give the country it's name are also often vivious, raising deadly sandstorms in their wake. Along the coast, people experience a more tolerable heat, cooled by the ocean winds and moister air.

	=='''Politics'''==		=='''Politics'''==
	The politics of Kaze no Kuni can be broken into ~~two categories~~. The first is the role of the military, which is what is known by most ninja with the leader of the organization being the [[Kazekage]]. The second is the government of the entire country, lead by the Daimyo of the Country of Wind. Further responsibilities are listed below.		The politics of Kaze no Kuni can be broken into three distinct governments, each centered one of the major cities within the nation. The first is the role of the military, which is what is known by most ninja with the leader of the organization being the [[Kazekage]]. The second is the government of the entire country, lead by the Daimyo of the Country of Wind. Last, and most likely least, is the city of Soma, the ancient capital of the Country. Further responsibilities are listed below.

	*'''Daimyo''' - The ~~leader~~ of the entire Country of Wind. Responsibilities include negotiations with other countries, passing of legislature and addressing the people of the country. They are the head of the government as a whole. This position is currently held by [[Takashuri Keito]].		*'''Daimyo''' - The acknowledge ruler of the entire Country of Wind. Responsibilities include negotiations with other countries, passing of legislature and addressing the people of the country. They are considered to be the head of the government as a whole. This position is currently held by [[Takashuri Keito]].

	*'''Kazekage''' - The military leader of the country. They are the one in charge of all ninja in the country and are called to the front of the government in times of war. Currently, the title of Kazekage is held by [[Ma'at Akilah]].		*'''Kazekage''' - The military leader of the country. They are the one in charge of all ninja in the country and are called to the front of the government in times of war. Currently, the title of Kazekage is held by [[Ma'at Akilah]].

	Outside of the ~~two~~ major leaders and their seats of power, politics within Kaze no Kuni become a bit more complicated. Unlike other countries, where areas can more easily be divided into territories or districts based on the amount of people living in them, outside of the major cities of [[Soma]], [[Arrakis]], and [[Sunagakure no Sato]] few permanent settlements exist. Nomadic tribes that live within the countries boarders only share a lose affiliation with the major governmental bodies, mostly for the connections this gives them to goods, services, and fortified shelter when necessary.		*'''Principality of Soma''' - A title pre-dating the ninja age, Soma has retained it's hereditary politics. The rule of the city and the immediate surrounding area is referred to as the "Prince", with the council comprised of the nations old noble families.

			Outside of the three major leaders and their seats of power, politics within Kaze no Kuni become a bit more complicated. Unlike other countries, where areas can more easily be divided into territories or districts based on the amount of people living in them, outside of the major cities of [[Soma]], [[Arrakis]], and [[Sunagakure no Sato]] few permanent settlements exist. Nomadic tribes that live within the countries boarders only share a lose affiliation with the major governmental bodies, mostly for the connections this gives them to goods, services, and fortified shelter when necessary. In practice, each major city functions more as a city-state, though the three cities work collectively to defend and maintain the borders of the country.

	Of all the leaders, the [[Kazekage]]'s influence is most pronounced, due in large part to the specialized forces she uses to survey as much of the country as possible. Her commitment to internal security as well as minimalzing Kaze no Kuni's dependence on other countries has made her a strong, almost militant leader in the post-War years.

	The military within the Country of Wind is primarily composed of ninja from [[Sunagakure no Sato]], under control of the Kazekage.

	Other then organized military, various nomadic clans or mercenary groups exist outside of the Kazekage or Daimyo's control. The clans make the vast deserts of Kaze no Kuni dangerous for outsiders and natives alike, answering to no one but themselves. A show of force, or those with a large enough pocket, have sometimes been able to earn the service of these nomads. They are a favorite tool of the various families of [[Soma]].

	The vast geography of Kaze no Kuni give rise to various architecture depending on the location. For example, Sunagakure, located in the heart of the Country of Wind, is buffeted by gusts of wind and billowing sand. The structures are built of sturdy sandstone to endure the harsh, dry climate and further conceal the village from notice. However, the city or Arrakis, built along the coast and far from possible hostiles promotes architecture for domestic living and sweeping views of the ocean. Soma, in turn, is known for its beautiful architecture.		The vast geography of Kaze no Kuni give rise to various architecture depending on the location.

	Due to the vast expanse of Kaze no Kuni, the terrain often varies drastically depending on a person's location. While many view The Country of Wind as nothing but windswept deserts, the land ~~actually~~ supports high biodiversity. Areas to the north are influenced by the climates of Rain, Coal, and Fang, and receive enough rain to support grasslands, shrubbery, and and in some cases even trees.

	Areas close to Earth can be rocky and mountainous, and the higher elevation provides relief from the heat that most other areas of the country are subject to. Along the coast, and the Arrakis Peninsula, warm, oceanic winds bring moisture, allowing for tropical, or sub-desert conditions.

	== ~~''Soma, Capital of Kaze no Kuni''~~ ==		== Major Cities ==
	~~[[Image:Soma.jpg\|thumb\|400px\|The city of Soma, seen by night.]]~~

	Soma ~~is truly a city of artistic wonders – the entire city seems like a vast sculpture~~, ~~rife with smooth flowing lines and curves. But is also a place where you can get your throat cut in a split-second, just by making a wrong turn. Soma is the home~~ of ~~the largest known criminal empire on the continent. It has~~ no official name, but is known to be run by a leader called the Patchwork King. In fact the most dangerous thing you could do in the city would be to try to be a criminal without the Patchwork King's consent – with the second-most-dangerous being to stick your nose into the King's business. For this reason the average citizen is mostly quite safe from any crime but the organized kind. Thus the city of Soma, with its most remarkable spires, bazaars, and architecture, is a city with two faces, like day and night. Be careful after dark.		=== [[Soma]], Ancient Capital of Kaze no Kuni ===

	~~Among its unofficial names are The Arabian Nightmare~~, the Fish Market, and The City-In-Twilight. While the city is truly one of wonders - such works of artisanry and chakra can rarely be elsewhere found - it is also a city of dangers. The legitimate ruler of the city - something like the prince of a city-state - has the traditional title of The Diamond In The Rough, and rarely goes by an actual name. However, the Diamond is only half the power in the city, at best. Soma is the center of the world's largest criminal enterprise, which is run by a mysterious figure known as the Patchwork King. Records suggest that the King has been operating for at least a hundred years, leading many to theorize that the title is inherited - but very little is known for sure. All that can be said for certain is that the Patchwork King's empire extends far beyond the boundaries of Kaze no Kuni, and that he keeps a very low profile. Crime rates in the inner, richer parts of the city tend to be fairly low - most of the crime going on there is white-collar and thus unreported. More violent crimes are reserved for the poorer parts of town, and tend to be the result of someone sticking their nose where it isn't wanted. The city is mostly urban, with no parks to speak of, but bath-houses and private gardens are ubiquitous in the richer districts.		=== [[Arrakis]], the New Seat of Power ===
