Its people are known for being warm and friendly, while holding certain values tightly to their hearts. Generally, they go about their issues in a communal fashion in an effort to get what is best for the largest number of individuals. 'All for one, and one for all', is one of the essential teachings of the 'Will of Fire'.

=== Konohagakure no sato ===
	
Konohagakure is the prototypical Shinobi village, with it's general visage sporting a good mix between traditional and industrialized cityscape. Most of the buildings in the village are between 3-4 floors, making it heavy of space but with generally comfortable living conditions that make this a very desirable place to live. When you consider the economy which is good, makes the village and even more attractive choice for people looking to settle down or perhaps be closer to their shinobi relatives.  
Konohagakure's defensive positioning is usually credited to the large mountain at it's back, serving as an extra, natural wall. Besides that, the village depends mostly on the huge forests outside of the walls as a means to deter attackers, making it difficult to set up any sort of siege equipment or effectively organize troops.
Most of the population of Konohagakure make their homes on the outskirts of the village, with the central part of the village dedicated to the vast compounds that house Konohagakure's many Shinobi clans. In addition, the road leading straight from the main gate to the governmental Hokage Building is littered with markets and shops, perhaps the most famous being Mama Ayame's Ramen or the Yamanaka Flower Shop.
