Paradokkusu (山隠れの里, Paradokkusu; Literally meaning "Paradox"; also known as "The Paradox Empire" or "Hidden Volcano Village"), is the hidden village of the Land of Flames. Not being part of the Great Shinobi countries they do not run the same system as other villages. Paradokkusu has its own Hierarchy, which divides the empire into several parts. The Leaders of the country "share" the power equally and because of this the country empire has survived long. Several Clans live in this village but the Fenikkusu Clan and the Tekunorojī Clan are the strongest and the leaders of those clans are probably head of the empire.
