Sunagakure (砂隠れの里, Sunagakure no Sato, literally meaning: Village Hidden by Sand) is the hidden village of the Land of Wind. As the village of one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Sunagakure has a Kage as its leader known as the Kazekage, of which there have been Unknown in its history. Being surrounded by desert offers the village a natural deterrent against invasion, as few foreign powers would be willing to endure the sandstorms and water scarcity common to Suna. Sunagakure itself lies in a fortified valley behind cliffs of rock, with passage in and out of the village restricted to a single cleft between two cliff faces, making the area very hard to attack from the ground. The buildings inside seem to be made of clay or stucco, which would help to keep the buildings cool.

The standard attire for Suna shinobi consists of blue or black uniforms underneath flak jackets of various shades of beige to better blend with their natural environment and include shoulders guards. Headpieces consisting of a head-wrap and cloth neck-covers to protect against the harsh weather are popular with Suna shinobi. Many Sunagakure ninja use Wind Release techniques, which they may or may not perform with fans. Shinobi from this village believe that the accomplishment of a mission predominates the lives of the ninja trying to accomplish it. As such, they ruthlessly pursue victory in battle, and even if failure is inevitable they will still try to achieve any success against their enemy that they can. Sunagakure has been made up of various families, instead of clans.

History

Founding

During the Warring States Period, ninja were organised into small mercenary clans that knew nothing but battle.

Sunagakure was founded after the Warring States Period by the First Kazekage, who gathered the desert-dwelling shinobi under his control with his overwhelming power.

One-Tailed Shukaku's Attack

Following the Third Shinobi World War, the Land of Wind's daimyō started outsourcing missions previously given to Suna to Konoha instead. The Fourth Kazekage attempted to sell his shinobi to clients as Mercenary Ninja to try to make up for the loss of funding, however this led to numerous ramifications with their shinobi not strong enough which led to multiple failed missions, and caused the disapproval of all their allies, therefore it was ultimately decided that Suna shinobi would need to rely on individual strength rather than strength of numbers.

In order to accomplish this goal, he required the ultimate weapon to spear head the cause. This began the project of producing the ultimate Jinchūriki with the One-Tail in his possession.

Trivia

• Because the previous Kazekage were targeted for assassination and abduction most of which have fallen to, Anti-Kazekage groups have become common in Suna because they desire a "stronger" Kazekage. However, with the subsequent arrest of multiple Suna Council members who actively formed and assisted these groups, many assume the Anti-Kazekage groups have finally been put down.
