Kirigakure

Konohagakure is a village that features in Naruto.

History

Origin

Kirigakure (Japanese: 霧隠れの里, Kirigakure no Sato, Literally meaning: Village Hidden by Mist) was a hidden village of shinobis situated in the Land of Water in the Ninja World. Shortly after the formation of their villages, Konohagakure's First Hokage sold tailed beasts to Kiri as a sign of friendship and to ensure a balance of power amongst their new villages. The goodwill this fostered was short-lived, and Kiri would become involved in different conflicts over the following decades. The Second Mizukage and Iwa's Second Tsuchikage who would clash against one another countless times eventually met in what would be their final battle and killed each other. Kirigakure's society was split into a form of caste system since the founding of the village. The highest ranking civilians were those whose family lineage originally stemmed from within Kirigakure, the second caste was for members of families who were allied with Kirigakure on the battlefields in the past while the last and lowest caste consisted of members of the families who were defeated on said battlefields and annexed into the village. From the early days on, the members of the third caste were handled with caution and had to complete the most perilous and dangerous missions for the village — thus keeping them occupied and preventing them from revolting. Over time, the village became infamously known as the Village of the Bloody Mist (血霧の里, Chigiri no Sato) for a cruel reason — in the Kirigakure Academy, students wishing to graduate had to fight to the death, and only those who survived could advance to the ranks of the ninja.

Overview
