The '''Beanbean Kingdom''' is a major kingdom which shares its northeastern border with the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. It is the main setting of the game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', which was also its only appearance. The kingdom is great enough to encompass a variety of natural formations, including dry mountains and valleys, a forested area, and a large portion of the neighboring sea. The kingdom is ruled by [[Queen Bean]] with the assistance of her son, [[Prince Peasley]], and her lady at court, [[Lady Lima]].

The Beanbean Kingdom is a monarchy headed by [[Queen Bean]]. [[Queen Bean]] is assisted by her son, [[Prince Peasley]], and her lady at court, [[Lady Lima]]. The kingdom is composed of [[Stardust Fields]], [[Hoohoo Village]], [[Hoohoo Mountain]], [[Beanbean Castle Town]], [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]], [[Chucklehuck Woods]], [[Woohoo Hooniversity]], [[Oho Oasis]], [[Beanbean International Airport]], [[Teehee Valley]], [[Little Fungitown]], [[Guffawha Ruins]], [[Gwarhar Lagoon]], [[Yoshi Theater]], and [[Joke's End]].

===Military===

[[File:MnL BeanbeanGuard.png|thumb|A [[Beanbean Guard]].]]

The government organizes and operates a group of armored soldiers, known as [[Beanbean Guard]]s. Soldiers are employed as guards of government institutions and persons. During times of crisis, they may be employed for special missions. Each soldier wears a metal helmet and breastplate for protection. For battle, a soldier uses a javelin and shield.

 

The Beanbean Kingdom utilizes a market-based economy, much like the Mushroom Kingdom. People make a living by providing goods and/or services to others in exchange for tender, either in the form of [[Beanbean Coin]]s or otherwise. This tender is then used to purchase goods and/or services from a different individual or to build up one's own ability to provide goods and/or services, creating a cyclical nature to the process.

 

Beanbean Coins are the official legal tender of the kingdom. These coins boast a much higher monetary value than the [[coin]]s of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. The exact exchange rate between the two is subject to change rapidly.

 

Primarily, physical goods are brought to consumers through [[shop]]s, such as the [[clothing]] and [[item]] shops in Beanbean Castle Town or the [[Little Fungitown]] shop. Each shopkeeper utilizes his or her own sources for obtaining items, and as a result, selection and prices vary throughout the kingdom. Most shops both buy and sell goods. Like the selling price of an item, the buying price varies from shop to shop.

 

The service economy is typically vaster as it includes both organizations, such as [[Beanbean Air]], and individuals, such as the photographer who resides in the castle town's park. Tourism, one of the Beanbean Kingdom's largest draws, is included in this sector.

Stardust Fields lies at the border between the Mushroom Kingdom and the Beanbean Kingdom. To get through the border that separates the Mushroom and Beanbean sides of Stardust Fields, one would have to do the [[Border Jump]] with the [[Border Bros.]] The population of Stardust Fields is rather small, constituting of only 5 people capable of speech. The [[Starshade Bros.]]'s headquarters lie below the fields, which are always covered by a starry night sky.  

[[File:Hoohoo.PNG|frame]]

Hoohoo Mountain is a large mountain on the northwest side of the Beanbean Kingdom. Long ago, the Hoohooros civilization used to be located here, and their jokes can still be seen in the sides of the mountain, written in Hoorooglyphics, a subtle pastiche of [[wikipedia:Egyptian hieroglyphics|Egyptian hieroglyphics]]. Hoohoo mountain has various waterfalls, and the water of these descend from the water-filled crater at the mountain's summit. On the summit, there is a nest-like structure where the rare Hoohoo blocks are found. To climb the mountain, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] would have to climb it manually, or have [[Blablanadon]] fly them up to the top. At the mountain's foot, is [[Hoohoo Village]], where the [[Hoohooligans]] live. The [[Hammerhead Bros.]], who used a Hoohoo block to build the Mario bros. their hammers, used to live here as well, but moved to Northeast Beanbean.

===Beanbean Outskirts===

[[Beanbean Castle Town]] and [[Beanbean Castle]] lie at the center of the Beanbean Kingdom's largest region; Beanbean Outskirts. North of it lie Hoohoo Mountain and Teehee Valley. South of it lie the Beanbean International Airport and Woohoo Hooniversity, To the west lies Chucklehuck Woods, and to the east lies Oho Ocean. The Beanbean Outskirts are a vast, grassy, slightly hill-covered plain, and serve as a connection between many of the various landmarks in the Beanbean Kingdom. Many enemies are seen in this area, including [[Parabeanie]]s and [[Sharpea]]s, among others.

Beanbean Outskirts also seems to include various rivers, although they are likely to be canals built by the kingdom's people, and may perhaps serve as some sort of irrigation system.

The capital city of the Beanbean Kingdom, [[Beanbean Castle Town]] is also where [[Beanbean Castle]] is located, which is where the kingdom's monarch, [[Queen Bean]], as well as her son, [[Prince Peasley]], and other people such as [[Lady Lima]] live. The [[Beanstar]] is kept guarded in the castle, and during the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Cackletta devises a plan to steal the Beanstar to accomplish her evil wishes. The castle town is where most of the kingdom's [[Beanish]] people live, and the town is successful, having various shops and houses. The town and castle are surrounded by water canals. According to Fava's brother, who is considered by many to be the greatest intellectual in the town, Beanbean Castle Town was once the setting of the great [[Soybean Civilization]], and their wondrous artifacts, the rare Beanrocks, lie buried below the town.

The town is split in two, due to the water canals, and is connected by a bridge. Two additional bridges connect the castle town with Beanbean Outskirts. Beanbean Castle Town is attacked twice during the events of ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''.

A strange forest located in southwest Beanbean, [[Chucklehuck Woods]] is where the mystical Chuckola Fruit is grown. The entrance to the woods is the old [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]], a place famed for being where [[Chuckola Cola]] is brewed. Mario and Luigi are sent here on their mission to obtain the cure for Queen Bean's sickness, the legendary [[Chuckola Reserve]].

At the core of the dense woods, lies an ancient structure known as the [[Mother Chuckalola]], which is where the legendary Chuckola Reserve was being brewed for a thousand years by [[Bubbles]], the original owner of Chateau de Chucklehuck, until it matured enough to achieve perfection. Mother Chuckola is protected by [[Chuckleroot]], and elderly tree-like being, who believes only certain people can pass, and those who wish to, must first acquire the three rare varieties of Chuckloa Fruit.

[[Popple]] and [[Rookie (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|Rookie]], first met in Chateau de Chucklehuck, later sneak into the forest, and try to steal the Chuckola reserve for their own gain. However, they are stopped by Bubbles and the reserve itself, and it later battles Mario and Luigi in a new form known as the [[Chuckolator]].

A university focused on the studies of laughter, [[Woohoo Hooniversity]] is located in southeast Beanbean. According to Prince Peasley's investigations, Cackletta and her underlings had snuck into the university and attacked the professors as the students fled, turning the victims into [[Laser Snifit|Laser Snifits]].

After doing some tough puzzle work, the Mario Bros. manage to activate a solar-powered door that leads to Cackletta's hiding place. It is here that she plans to use the Beanstar and Peach's voice to accomplish her dreams. After her plan fails, and after being defeated by the bros., the Beanstar is later found by Rookie and Popple in the basement. It later flees from the university as Mario, Luigi, Popple, and Rookie hold on to it, and shatters into 4 pieces.

Possibly named due to the fact it is the only large island in the middle of a deserted ocean, [[Oho Oasis]] is home to the [[Oho Jee]]s, a species that speaks in slightly fragmented english, and come in two varieties, blue and red. Oho Oasis was once visited by outsiders belonging to the Oho Civilization Research Expedition, who actually happened to name the species, and made the startling discovery that red Oho Jees who were ignited on fire would turn into monsters and attack, also hypothesizing that blue Oho Jees would likely transform when exposed to electric stimuli.

Two strange temples, home to the [[Fire and Thunder Gods]], are located in the center of the island. It is due to the Fire and Thunder Gods that Mario and Luigi learn the ancient [[Firebrand]] and [[Thunderhand]] techniques.

A desert in north Beanbean, and the only way for travelers walking on foot to reach [[Little Fungitown]], Teehee Valley was once part of the seafloor of Oho Ocean. Over time, as the sea level slowly decreased in altitude, the seafloor became exposed. Teehee Valley contains various yellow pipes that take people to underground caverns that are often inhabited by [[Gritty Goomba]]s.

Mario and Luigi are originally sent to Teehee Valley to escort Peach all the way to Little Fungitown, and are forced to battle [[Trunkle]] on their way. Later in the game, the Mario Bros. return to the desert to gather one of the four Beanstar pieces, which had landed on an old ship that once used to ship Chuckola Cola around the world, but had unfortunately sunk, and over time, the ship's crew had turned into living skeletons. After breaking a crack in the ship's wall, the old once-sunken ship is shot from the valley and into Oho Ocean, only to sink for a second time.

The Beanbean Kingdom has a few species; however, the [[Beanish]] are the most common races in the kingdom. Other races are:

*[[Oho Jee]]s

*[[Yoshi]]s

*[[Toad (species)|Toads]]  

 

Also, [[Jellyfish]] live in this kingdom, but are rare. There are also a few mutated forms of familiar enemy creatures (such as [[Tanoomba]]s) found here, as well enemies also found in the Mushroom Kingdom (an example of this is the [[Blooper]]). Finally, the [[Hoohoo Civilization|Hoohoo]] and [[Soybean Civilization|Soybean]] civilizations may be the very oldest known inhabitants of the Beanbean Kingdom.

Like the Mushroom Kingdom uses [[Coin|Mushroom Coin]]s as their money, the Beanbean Kingdom uses [[Beanbean Coin]]s. Although Mushroom Kingdom coins can still be used in the Beanbean Kingdom, they typically are worth much less than Beanbean Coins. The exchange rate from Mushroom to Beanbean Coins changes every day.
