==History==
Bellwood was founded in 1638 by a group of Sámi people. Its English name is derived from the bell that was built to commemorate its founding. Hand-carved from walnut timber and weighing over 3,000 lbs., it is the world's largest wooden sleigh bell.Malefactor
At some point between the events of Ben 10: Destroy All Aliens and The Ultimate Enemy: Part 2 (based on conflicting statements), various alien species came to Earth and formed a secret town underneath the city called Undertown.
Undertown's existence was revealed to the citizens of Bellwood in The Frogs of War: Part 1, as Undertown's citizens were evacuating in search of a new home. In The Frogs of War: Part 2, the residents of Undertown return to fight off the Incurseans and work with the humans side-by-side, stating that they'll work on coexisting together in Bellwood.
===End of Time===
At the end of the Prime Timeline, the ruins of Bellwood's buildings and skyscrapers sit on crumbling, floating islands. On one particular island sits the ruins of a Mr. Smoothy location, which Eon occasionally uses as a lair.
