Sunagakure

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 five 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.

Village Customs
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.[1][2] 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.

History
After the Third Shinobi War, Sunagakure fell into an economic depression, the war had been very costly and resources ran dry after the war. This resulted in violent revolutions in the streets of Sunagakure and rioting throughout the central city. With the government now weak and the streets of Suna now sinking into further chaos, that allowed multiple organized crime factions to rise up and take advantage of the disaster. The gangs would go to war in the streets, sparking an event in Sunagakure’s history known as the Triad Wars, the many factions would wage war over the remaining resources. The Triad Wars would last for three long years, and many innocent bystanders would suffer in the post apocalyptic Sunagakure. The war would suddenly end when a violent earthquake would hit the entirety of Sunagakure and cause twice as much devastation than the Triad Wars. Sunagakure would’ve been done for, if it weren’t for the Golden Sand Syndicate. Though they were a well known crime organization, they helped the people of Suna and the Kingpin of the organization seemed to earn the people’s favor, becoming the current Kazekage.
