Mushroom Kingdom

The Mushroom Kingdom is a sovereign state - a principality ruled by the Toadstool dynasty that which is almost always the main setting where SuperMario231's series take place, located somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. There are many different species that reside in the kingdom including Toads, humans, Goombas, Koopas, Ugandan Knuckles, anthropomorphic animals and Teletubbies.
==Overview==
The Mushroom Kingdom is a country where most of the Mario games take place. The geography of the country varies, from green plains, jungles, deserts, beaches, snowy lands and volcanic areas. In the series, it is shown to be very mountainous, and it is also a fact that it sits in a rift in one of the tectonic plates in the Atlantic Ocean, possibly at the tripoint of the North American, African and Eurasian plates. To the south of the mainland lies the Wuhu Archipelago, a resort destination. Meanwhile, Isle Delfino, an autonomous territory of the kingdom, lies in the Pacific Ocean, thereby the only territory not to be located within the Mushroom Kingdom's borders in the Atlantic.
From evidence in the series, it is shown that the green plains is where most of the citizens live and where the desert is the most inhospitable places to live, with only a few people living there and due to high radioactivity in the region due to an amount of nuclear test sites being located there.
The capital of the kingdom/country is the Mushroom City. Meanwhile, the official currency in the kingdom is the Mushroom dollar, which aside from bills, uses Mushroom coins. All vehicles in the kingdom drive on the right side on the road, with the steering wheel on each car on the left side.
The kingdom is shown to be very racially diverse, with the population comprising Toads, humans, Koopas, Teletubbies, Goombas, Ugandan Knuckles and more. Meanwhile, the human population in the Mushroom Kingdom is mostly comprised a lot of immigrants, who emigrated from other country in the past, notably, Mario and Luigi from Italy, and SuperMario231 from the Philippines.
===Government===
The Toadstool family is the ruling dynasty over the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom. She resides at her official residence, which is her castle located north of the capital. While the monarch is the head of state of the kingdom, most of the power in the country is handled by the Prime Minister of the Mushroom Kingdom (also called the President), who is the head of government and the monarch's adviser.
===Languages===
Due to the massive immigrant and native population staying together on the land, a need for a bridge of communication was necessary, so it stuck with English as the official language of the kingdom. However, the native species remained to speak their own languages, such as Toad, Goomba and Koopa. Nevertheless, foreign languages are continued to be spoken by citizens, such as Italian, French, Spanish, German, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Arabic, Filipino/Tagalog, and recently Inkling.
===Economy===
The Mushroom Kingdom is shown to be a highly developed country due to its position in the Atlantic Ocean, establishing itself as a supply station and a rest area for ships and travellers travelling between Europe and the United States during past times.
The kingdom is shown to have a mixed economy; while it has a liberalised free market system that allowed foreign businesses such as McDonald's and Nintendo to operate in, there are some state-owned enterprises, such as MKTV, the National Bank, and others, with a myriad of local businesses such as Moo Moo Milk and Chungus Games as examples.
The official currency is the Mushroom dollar, using coins. The kingdom's main revenue appears to be from shipping, thanks in part from its strategic location in the middle of Europe and North America. Industries include finance, food and beverages and tourism.
=== Media Press ===
The Mushroom Kingdom has a lot of mass media, notably the private-owned media companies VBC, BBS, NBC, Weazel, Flash FM, Capital FM and more; the state-owned media company Mushroom Kingdom Media Network (who operates the TV channel Mushroom Kingdom Television (MKTV) and radio stations Mushroom Kingdom Talk Radio (MKTR) and Fever 105). There is a news website called Wrappler, which is a parody of the Philippine news website Rappler.
===Transport===
The Mushroom Kingdom is served by a multitude of modes of transport. Highways are straddled throughtout the country, diverging from Mushroom City. The kingdom is also shown to have railways, established since colonial times that is still used for passenger and cargo services.
===Demographics===
The majority of the Mushroom Kingdom's population comprises of Toads, followed by the humans. The Koopas, who are the third largest ethnic group, mostly lives in the east, particularly in their ancestral homeland, Koopa Land. Other populations such as the Piantas live on Isle Delfino, while the Yoshis form a majority on Dinosaur Land. Other minorities live in their respective provinces.
Although not regularly shown in the series, the majority of the Mushroom Kingdom practices Christianity, with churches seen in many places. The Christians there are primarily Catholics, Mormoms and Protestants (and with other sects). It is implied that Mario and Luigi are Catholics because of their Italian ethnicity, and SuperMario231 is also a Catholic because of his home country - the Philippines - is the Christian/Catholic nation. Meanwhile, there are also populations that are secular, while there are still folk religions being practiced in the kingdom. Other minorities include Buddhists, Jews and Muslims.
===Law enforcement===
The Mushroom Kingdom Royal Police is the main law enforcement of the kingdom, and the country is defended by the Mushroom Kingdom Armed Forces.
It is unclear about the status of drugs in the country, but it is implied that mushrooms, the namesake of the kingdom, is presumably legal.
