The '''Mushroom Kingdom''' is one of the largest kingdoms and is under the rule of [[Princess Peach]]. The Mushroom Kingdom is known to change its landscape, not keeping the same formation from one game to another. Despite this, the kingdom comprises of many similar recurring landscapes, such as plains, deserts, islands, forests, mountains, snowy areas and volcanoes.
{{quote|Mushroom Kingdom - Most Famous of All Kingdoms|In-game brochure|[[Super Mario Odyssey]]}}
The '''Mushroom Kingdom''' is the primary setting of the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Its appearance varies from game to game, often coinciding with the genre. However, common characteristics of the kingdom that are shared across games are its tall, round hills, presence of floating objects such as [[? Block]]s and [[coin]]s, [[Warp Pipe]]s, striped grasslands, and layered dirt. The kingdom is ruled by [[Princess Peach]] and the primary inhabitants are [[Toad (species)|Toads]].


==Overview==
==History==
[[File:Smb2ll.png|thumb|right|220px|[[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''.]]
===''Super Mario'' series===
Mushroom Kingdom is a recurring place in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. It is portrayed differently in many of the games it appears in. In the ''Super Mario Bros.'' and the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, Mushroom Kingdom is often portrayed as having eight differently-themed worlds (usually grasslands, desert, snow, etc.) that [[Mario]] has to travel through in order to rescue Peach from [[Bowser]]. ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' is the first game to show civilian life in the Mushroom Kingdom, something continued later in games such as ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and its respective series. ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and later [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'']] games reveal that Mushroom Kingdom has metropolitan areas in the forms of [[Toad's Turnpike]], [[Mushroom City]] and other urban courses.
[[File:SMB Super Mushroom Screenshot.png|thumb|right|220px|[[Mario]] in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]]]]
In the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games, the Mushroom Kingdom is portrayed as a large country with many landscapes such as [[level#List of level themes|grassy plains, deserts, beaches, snowy tundras, jungles, mountains, cloudy areas, and volcanoes]].

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', the Mushroom Kingdom, most commonly referred to as "Mushroomland", is a central plot point in the show; the Mushroom Kingdom is apparently under the influence of King Koopa in the show. Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool spend the bulk of the series' episodes searching for someone or something that could free it from his grasp.
====''Super Mario Bros.''====
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', Bowser invades the Mushroom Kingdom, transforms its inhabitants into various objects, and kidnaps [[Princess Peach]] in order to prevent her from reversing his spell. Mario or Luigi go to rescue her. There are 8 [[World]]s in the Mushroom Kingdom:

The Mushroom Kingdom has inspired several stages in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. Two of these, both called [[Mushroom Kingdom (stage)|Mushroom Kingdom]], are based off of the kingdom as it appeared in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'', with [[Warp Pipe]]s and [[POW Block]]s. Despite its name, [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' is based off of [[Subcon]] as it appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. All three of these stages feature 3-D versions of stage elements, such as blocks and platforms, while any characters are portrayed as flat 2-D images.
====''Super Mario Bros. 3'' / ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
[[File:SMA4 Intro 4.png|thumb|right|220px|Peach's Castle in the introduction of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'']]
According to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''{{'}}s instruction booklet, the Mushroom Kingdom serves as the entrance to the [[Mushroom World]], where the main game takes place. ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' includes an opening cutscene that shows the interior of Peach's Castle.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''{{'}}s Adventure Mode, the first stage is also called Mushroom Kingdom, where players have to get past Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and a team of [[Yoshi]]s to reach Princess Peach's Castle. Some Toads also make an appearance.
====''Super Mario World'' / ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2''====
The Mushroom Kingdom is mentioned in the instruction booklet for ''[[Super Mario World]]'', which states that Mario and Luigi left for a vacation at [[Dinosaur Land]], the game's main setting, after saving the Mushroom World in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. The opening cutscene ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'' shows Mario and co. arriving at Dinosaur Land from the Mushroom Kingdom via hot air balloon.


''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' features [[Mushroomy Kingdom]]. This stage indicates that in the alternate world of ''Super Smash Bros.'', the Mushroom Kingdom has become run down as a result of the epic battles that have been fought there and the fact that specific area of the kingdom has gotten old and worn down. Familiar structures are now ruins and the entire world appears as a barren desert. The stage depicts replicated versions of either [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] or [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] when selected.
====''Super Mario 64''====
[[File:SM64 globe artwork.png|thumb|right|220px|The Mushroom Kingdom in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'']]
In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', the locations were created by Bowser using the stolen [[Power Star]]s and can be accessed through [[Painting|paintings]] hung on the walls of Peach's Castle. The locations are as follows:
*[[Bob-omb Battlefield]]
*[[Whomp's Fortress]]
*[[Jolly Roger Bay]]
*[[Cool, Cool Mountain]]
*[[Big Boo's Haunt]]
*[[Hazy Maze Cave]]
*[[Lethal Lava Land]]
*[[Shifting Sand Land]]
*[[Dire, Dire Docks]]
*[[Snowman's Land]]
*[[Wet-Dry World]]
*[[Tall, Tall Mountain]]
*[[Tiny-Huge Island]]
*[[Tick Tock Clock]]
*[[Rainbow Ride]]
 
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
The Mushroom Kingdom makes no appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', although it is mentioned in the game's instruction booklet as a distant location from the [[Isle Delfino]], the game's main setting. This is evident by the fact Mario and company take an airplane to the island.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:Castle investigate.png|thumb|right|220px|The Mushroom Kingdom in the introduction of ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'']]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', the Mushroom Kingdom is the main location of the game, and has 8 worlds to traverse. Some world themes take inspiration from previous Mario series games, while others are completely new on their own.

In ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'', the Mushroom Kingdom appears at the beginning of the games. In the former game, Mario and friends return to the Mushroom Kingdom at the end of the credits.
 
====''Super Mario Run''====
[[File:A Kingdom Past SMR.png|thumb|A Kingdom Past in ''Super Mario Run'']]
''[[Super Mario Run]]'' prominently features the Mushroom Kingdom as game's main menu and as the focus of the Kingdom Builder mode.<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/Smart-device-games/Super-Mario-Run-1140496.html?srsltid=AfmBOorXEkY8qWYL-dVIDY6QQpDnpi-1buWZL8NTZZF3UmQeVpnCgaf7 Super Mario Run description from Nintendo's UK and Ireland website. Accessed Sep 4, 2024]</ref> The game usually refers to the Mushroom Kingdom with the phrase '''your kingdom''', or sometimes '''the kingdom'''.<ref>{{cite|quote=What is the kingdom? It's a kingdom that was destroyed by Bowser when he kidnapped Princess Peach. You can rebuild the kingdom by building structures with the help of the Toads that join after victories in Toad Rally.|author=|title=Help and Inquiries|url=https://support.supermariorun.com/en-US/faq|publisher=Nintendo|accessdate=October 13, 2024}}</ref> When Bowser kidnaps Peach in this game, he also destroys all of the buildings and scatters all of the Toads. Peach's Castle is wrecked, and is replaced by a tent. Some [[Thwomp]]s were left in the area.
 
When loaded, the game opens on an area with Peach's Tent, a replacement version of Peach's Castle. Below it is a cobblestone crossroad marked with Peach's emblem. Two Toads operate menus: one for the notifications menu and a [[Jammin' Toad|Toad wearing headphones]] for the menu governing playing music from the device's library. A [[Gift Box]] contains items granted through events. This area is bordered on the north and east by forests and hills, and on the west and south by water. A passage to the east is blocked off by a lake.
 
In Kingdom Builder, the player can purchase and place [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|buildings and decorations]] to create a custom version of the Mushroom Kingdom. Thwomps act as obstacles that restrict building placement, but the player can earn [[Hammer]]s to remove them.
 
In order to bring Toads back to the Mushroom Kingdom, players play the Toad Rally mode.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aivv_RNoM3s Apple Special Event, Apple. Sep 7, 2016. Reposted by Nintendo Wire as Super Mario Run iOS Announcement {{!}} Feat. Shigeru Miyamoto and Bill Trinen. Accessed Sep 4, 2024]</ref> With more Toads of each color, the player can purchase more kinds of buildings, including five Rainbow Bridges that each add an adjacent area to the kingdom. Acquiring Toads also gradually rebuilds Peach's Castle.
 
The Rainbow Bridges extend the kingdom in each direction. East and southeast of the castle is more of the same landmass.  West and southwest are two different landmasses located across the water. South is a set of seven islands in the water. One of these islands is large and has multiple places to position buildings, while another has a single place for a building.
 
If Peach's Tent or Peach's Castle is tapped, the player can look at a framed photo of the kingdom's initial state, titled '''A Kingdom Past'''. There are zoning laws that prevent too many Toads from staying in the Mushroom Kingdom at the same time.<ref>{{cite|quote=Due to strict zoning rules, there is a limit to how many Toads can live in your kingdom at a time.

{{main|Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros.)}}
{{main|Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)}}
{{main|Mushroom Kingdom (Adventure Mode)}}
{{main|Mushroom Kingdom II}}
{{main|Mushroomy Kingdom}}
{{main|Mushroom Kingdom U}}
The Mushroom Kingdom has inspired several stages in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. Two of these, both called [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros.)|Mushroom]] [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Kingdom]], are based off of the kingdom as it appeared in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'', with usable [[Warp Pipe]]s and [[POW Block]]s in ''Super Smash Bros.'', and [[? Block]]s and [[Brick Block]]s in ''Melee''. Despite its name, [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] from ''Melee'' is based off of [[Subcon]] as it appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' (specifically the depiction in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''). All three of these stages feature 3-D versions of stage elements, such as blocks and platforms, while any characters are portrayed as flat 2-D images. The Japanese names of them instead name them as "Ancient Kingdom" as a tongue-in-cheek reference to their source games' relative age.
 
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''{{'}}s Adventure Mode, the first stage is also called [[Mushroom Kingdom (Adventure Mode)|Mushroom Kingdom]], where players have to get past Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and a team of [[Yoshi]]s to reach Princess Peach's Castle, where Peach and either Mario or Luigi are fought. Two Toads also appear, one at the Yoshi arena and one at the endpoint.
 
''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' features [[Mushroomy Kingdom]], or "Ancient-ish Kingdom" in Japanese. Similar to the visual gag of them being "ancient" by featuring pixelated graphics in previous games, this stage depicts worlds from that game as long-abandoned regions. Familiar structures are now old, worn-down ruins and the entire stage appears as a barren desert and cave. The stage depicts replicated versions of [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] (and [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] originally) when selected.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', a stage called [[Mushroom Kingdom U]], based on the worlds from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', is featured.

The Mushroom Kingdom is the primary setting of the Super Mario franchise, first appearing in Super Mario Bros. Its appearance varies from game to game, often coinciding with the genre. However, common characteristics of the kingdom that are shared across games are its tall, round hills, presence of floating objects such as ? Blocks and coins, Warp Pipes, striped grasslands, and layered dirt. The kingdom is ruled by Princess Peach and the primary inhabitants are Toads.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

In the Super Mario games, the Mushroom Kingdom is portrayed as a large country with many landscapes such as grassy plains, deserts, beaches, snowy tundras, jungles, mountains, cloudy areas, and volcanoes.

Recurring landmarks

Super Mario Bros.[edit]

In Super Mario Bros., Bowser invades the Mushroom Kingdom, transforms its inhabitants into various objects, and kidnaps Princess Peach in order to prevent her from reversing his spell. Mario or Luigi go to rescue her. There are 8 Worlds in the Mushroom Kingdom:

Super Mario Bros. 3 / Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

According to Super Mario Bros. 3's instruction booklet, the Mushroom Kingdom serves as the entrance to the Mushroom World, where the main game takes place. Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 includes an opening cutscene that shows the interior of Peach's Castle.

Super Mario World / Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom is mentioned in the instruction booklet for Super Mario World, which states that Mario and Luigi left for a vacation at Dinosaur Land, the game's main setting, after saving the Mushroom World in Super Mario Bros. 3. The opening cutscene Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 shows Mario and co. arriving at Dinosaur Land from the Mushroom Kingdom via hot air balloon.

Super Mario 64[edit]

In Super Mario 64, the locations were created by Bowser using the stolen Power Stars and can be accessed through paintings hung on the walls of Peach's Castle. The locations are as follows:

Super Mario Sunshine[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom makes no appearance in Super Mario Sunshine, although it is mentioned in the game's instruction booklet as a distant location from the Isle Delfino, the game's main setting. This is evident by the fact Mario and company take an airplane to the island.

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

In New Super Mario Bros., the Mushroom Kingdom is the main location of the game, and has 8 worlds to traverse. Some world themes take inspiration from previous Mario series games, while others are completely new on their own.

Super Mario Galaxy[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom in Super Mario Galaxy

In Super Mario Galaxy, the Mushroom Kingdom appears at the beginning during the Star Festival before being attacked by Bowser, who abducts Peach, along with her castle. It appears again in Grand Finale Galaxy and its only mission, The Star Festival.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

Peach's Castle in the opening cutscene of New Super Mario Bros. Wii

New Super Mario Bros. Wii retains the Mushroom Kingdom as the game's main location, and shares the same world themes as the previous game.

Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom in Super Mario Galaxy 2

In Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Mushroom Kingdom appears at the beginning; however, it can only be visited once. It serves as the first area of the game and is where Mario meets Baby Luma and discovers Bowser's new plan to rule the universe.

Super Mario 3D Land[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom returns in Super Mario 3D Land, and comes with more unique level and world themes unlike the New Super Mario Bros. series. Peach's Castle is seen at the beginning and end of the game, as well as in the background of World 1-1.

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

New Super Mario Bros. 2 still takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom and has fewer worlds than previous games; however, some world themes are merged to accommodate.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

Unlike previous installments in the New Super Mario Bros. series, in New Super Mario Bros. U and its port for the Nintendo Switch, the worlds of the Mushroom Kingdom have names:

Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

The very beginning of Bowser's Fury.

In Super Mario 3D World and Bowser's Fury, the Mushroom Kingdom appears at the beginning of the games. In the former game, Mario and friends return to the Mushroom Kingdom at the end of the credits.

Super Mario Run[edit]

A Kingdom Past in Super Mario Run

Super Mario Run prominently features the Mushroom Kingdom as game's main menu and as the focus of the Kingdom Builder mode.[1] The game usually refers to the Mushroom Kingdom with the phrase your kingdom, or sometimes the kingdom.[2] When Bowser kidnaps Peach in this game, he also destroys all of the buildings and scatters all of the Toads. Peach's Castle is wrecked, and is replaced by a tent. Some Thwomps were left in the area.

When loaded, the game opens on an area with Peach's Tent, a replacement version of Peach's Castle. Below it is a cobblestone crossroad marked with Peach's emblem. Two Toads operate menus: one for the notifications menu and a Toad wearing headphones for the menu governing playing music from the device's library. A Gift Box contains items granted through events. This area is bordered on the north and east by forests and hills, and on the west and south by water. A passage to the east is blocked off by a lake.

In Kingdom Builder, the player can purchase and place buildings and decorations to create a custom version of the Mushroom Kingdom. Thwomps act as obstacles that restrict building placement, but the player can earn Hammers to remove them.

In order to bring Toads back to the Mushroom Kingdom, players play the Toad Rally mode.[3] With more Toads of each color, the player can purchase more kinds of buildings, including five Rainbow Bridges that each add an adjacent area to the kingdom. Acquiring Toads also gradually rebuilds Peach's Castle.

The Rainbow Bridges extend the kingdom in each direction. East and southeast of the castle is more of the same landmass. West and southwest are two different landmasses located across the water. South is a set of seven islands in the water. One of these islands is large and has multiple places to position buildings, while another has a single place for a building.

If Peach's Tent or Peach's Castle is tapped, the player can look at a framed photo of the kingdom's initial state, titled A Kingdom Past. There are zoning laws that prevent too many Toads from staying in the Mushroom Kingdom at the same time.[4]

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

Main article: Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)

The Mushroom Kingdom appears as a mushroom-shaped island in Super Mario Odyssey. It appears in the opening cutscene, where Mario, Peach and Bowser are above Peach's Castle, and is unlocked as a Kingdom after completing the main story of the game.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom can be seen briefly at the beginning of Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

The Mushroom Kingdom is not the setting for Super Mario Bros. Wonder; instead, the game takes place in the neighboring Flower Kingdom. However, in the game's opening sequence and first level, the Mushroom Kingdom is briefly visible in the background.

DIC cartoons[edit]

The Super Mario Bros. Super Show![edit]

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, the Mushroom Kingdom, most commonly referred to as "Mushroomland," is a central plot point in the show; Mushroomland is apparently under the influence of King Koopa in the show. Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Princess Toadstool spend the bulk of the series' episodes searching for someone or something that could free it from his grasp. Many regions of the Mushroom Kingdom in the series are inspired by locations from movies, fairy tales, books, and real-life.

Landmarks

Super Mario World[edit]

In Super Mario World, the kingdom is mentioned in the episode "Mama Luigi."

Nintendo Adventure Books[edit]

Leaping Lizards describes the Mushroom Kingdom as being deep under the surface of the Earth, which is used as an explanation for how Mario and Luigi can reach the Kingdom through a series of pipes in Brooklyn.[5]

Hotel Mario[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom appears in Hotel Mario, where Bowser and the Koopalings have dominated the kingdom by turning it into a location that the game takes place in: Klub Koopa Resort (stylized as Klub Koopa Rezsort). There are seven hotels within Klub Koopa Resort.

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom appears at the end of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, and Yoshi's New Island when Baby Mario and Baby Luigi are returned to their home.

Yoshi's New Island[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom appears in Yoshi's New Island; in the opening, Baby Mario and Baby Luigi end up being delivered at the wrong house, and the stork attempts to deliver the babies to their rightful parents, only to be captured alongside Baby Luigi by Kamek and his Toadies, while Baby Mario falls into a nearby location, Egg Island. The Mushroom Kingdom is not seen again until the end, where the bay Mario Bros. are returned to their rightful home. If the Flutter Wings have never been used once, then Mario will appear in the secret ending.

In Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, during Mario and Luigi's childhood, the Mushroom Kingdom is invaded by the Shroobs, so Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Baby Peach, Toadsworth the Younger, and Baby Bowser (who had been trying to capture Baby Peach at the time) flee in the Koopa Cruiser.

In the present time, an event is held at Peach's Castle, where Princess Peach, Toadiko, and Toadbert travel to the past via Professor E. Gadd's time machine, which is powered by the Cobalt Star. But when the device returns, it is in a ruined state and is occupied by a hostile alien, forcing Mario and Luigi to use a newly formed time hole in the castle gardens to go to the past to find Peach.

All locations but Peach's Castle can only be visited in the past.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership[edit]

This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.

The Mushroom Kingdom appears in Mario & Luigi: Brothership in the cutscene where Luigi is chased by bees, before he and Mario are transported away by a portal and eventually end up in Concordia, the game's main setting.[6]

While Mario and Luigi are in the Soli-Tree, they become trapped in an illusion of the Mushroom Kingdom by Reclusa but they manage to escape. Mario and Luigi return to the real Mushroom Kingdom after defeating Reclusa and restoring peace to Concordia.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

Main article: Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros.)
Main article: Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)
Main article: Mushroom Kingdom (Adventure Mode)
Main article: Mushroom Kingdom II
Main article: Mushroomy Kingdom
Main article: Mushroom Kingdom U

The Mushroom Kingdom has inspired several stages in the Super Smash Bros. series. Two of these, both called Mushroom Kingdom, are based off of the kingdom as it appeared in the original Super Mario Bros., with usable Warp Pipes and POW Blocks in Super Smash Bros., and ? Blocks and Brick Blocks in Melee. Despite its name, Mushroom Kingdom II from Melee is based off of Subcon as it appeared in Super Mario Bros. 2 (specifically the depiction in Super Mario Advance). All three of these stages feature 3-D versions of stage elements, such as blocks and platforms, while any characters are portrayed as flat 2-D images. The Japanese names of them instead name them as "Ancient Kingdom" as a tongue-in-cheek reference to their source games' relative age.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee's Adventure Mode, the first stage is also called Mushroom Kingdom, where players have to get past Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and a team of Yoshis to reach Princess Peach's Castle, where Peach and either Mario or Luigi are fought. Two Toads also appear, one at the Yoshi arena and one at the endpoint.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl features Mushroomy Kingdom, or "Ancient-ish Kingdom" in Japanese. Similar to the visual gag of them being "ancient" by featuring pixelated graphics in previous games, this stage depicts worlds from that game as long-abandoned regions. Familiar structures are now old, worn-down ruins and the entire stage appears as a barren desert and cave. The stage depicts replicated versions of World 1-1 (and World 1-2 originally) when selected.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, a stage called Mushroom Kingdom U, based on the worlds from New Super Mario Bros. U, is featured.

General information[edit]

Government[edit]

The Mushroom Kingdom is ruled by Princess Peach. The kingdom's capital is Toad Town. Here, Princess Peach resides in her castle. Early material also includes her father, the kindly Mushroom King, who is mentioned to rule alongside her. However, he largely does not appear later in the series.

Princess Peach keeps a horde of Toad guards at her castle. However, Mario, Luigi, and many other heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom have fought to save it and its princess countless times before. Currently, Princess Peach staffs and supports Toad Houses in major towns near Toad Town.
