He was replaced by his daughter Toki. The country itself shares borders with Wind, Earth and the Rain countries. The country appears to resemble most of the other countries, with forests, hills and streams dotting the landscape. The country is also home to many species of bird, giving rise to the country name.

	Neck Country Not much is known about the Neck Country. Kubisaki Kouza ruled over the Neck Country approximately fifty years before the series start. The country probably draws its name from the "kubi" kanji in his name, meaning neck. "Shu" is another reading of this kanji. His country was besieged and his citizens wiped out by an enemy army. He retreated to his castle and summoned a gigantic lizard to linger after his death. The lizard took on the form of his castle and ate any who came inside. After many years Kouza's spirit returned to guide Naruto, Kiba and Hinata to his summoning contract to destroy it, which would finally let the animal return from whence it came.
