Best Answer

The Wizard of Oz was set in the great plains of the state of Kansas; the environs of Omaha, Nebraska; and the Blue Munchkin Country of the East, the Green Country of the Emerald City, the Red Quadling Country of the South, and the Yellow Winkie Country of the West in the lands of Oz. The Purple Gillikin Country was mentioned in the story of Quelala and his wife Gayelette, the beautiful princess and powerful sorceress of the North. But it was the only part of the lands of Oz that Dorothy Gale, her pet dog Toto, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion didn't visit.

The story begins with Dorothy Gale in California for a visit with relatives. Uncle Henry and Aunt Em remain behind, with Toto, in Kansas. Cousin Zeb is driving Dorothy and her kitten Eureka back to her Uncle Billy Hugson's ranch when an earthquake sends them to the Glass City of the Mangaboos. The Wizard, who is in Los Angeles to pick up nine piglets from the Island of Teenty-Weent, gets caught in the same earthquake, and lands shortly afterwards in his hot air balloon. Dorothy, Eureka, the Wizard and his piglets, and Zeb and his horse Jim overstay their welcome. The Mangaboos drive the 14 friends into the Black Pit in the side of a nearby glass mountain, and wall up the entrance. But the other end of the tunnel leads the friends into the Valley of Voe, whose people are invisible. From the Valley, the 14 climb a spiral staircase inside the Pyramid Mountain, to the Land of Naught. Far above the clouds, they manage to escape from their confinement in the prison of the Gargoyles. They pass into the Den of Dragonettes, and become trapped in a prison just as they're about to break through to the earth's surface. But every afternoon her friend Ozma, Princess of the Emerald City, checks up on Dorothy by way of an enchanted picture. Dorothy is to make a certain sign if she needs to be wished to the Emerald City. From the Emerald Palace, Ozma wishes Dorothy and Eureka back to Kansas, and Jim the cabhorse and Zeb back to California.

The first and last parts are in Kansas (remember the line--"I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto?") and the middle part is in the Land of Oz. Unless you buy into that nonsense that it was all a dream!

Kansas and the imaginary lands of Oz are the settings of "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, the original 1900 book edition by Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) and the beloved 1939 film version begin and end in rural Kansas. There is no indication as to what town Dorothy Gale, her pet dog Toto and her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em live near. In Oz, Dorothy sees the Munchkin, Quadling and Winkie countries in the book and just the Munchkin and Winkie in the film.

Kansas is the setting and California is the filming location of the beloved 1939 movie version of "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, the original 1900 book edition by Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) is set in rural Kansas as well as in the fictional Land of Oz. Film production took place in Culver City, California. Despite the realism of the scenes in Kansas and the boisterous naturalism of Oz, filming relied only on the props and sets within the confines of MGM Studios.

There are two main settings for The wizard of Oz. One is a small town in Kansas, where Dorothy lives with her aunt and uncle. The other is Oz itself, a fictional fantasy world.
