Random Strongest Villages in Naruto History (13 items)

  (#4) Amegakure

  Famous Members: Pain, Konan, Hanzo

  As its name suggests, Amegakure is almost constantly under a blanket of rainclouds. It's an industrialized village that's known for producing talented assassins. Because it's situated between Konoha, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure, three countries that were often at war with one another, it was often the site of brutal warfare, which led to many casualties amongst the Amegakure citizens.

  This led to Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan, three children who were orphaned by the constant warfare, to grow up, become radicalized, and form the Akatsuki. Originally, the Akatsuki was a peace-keeping group, but this changed after an attempt to take down the nation's leader Hanzō resulted in Yahiko's death. Nagato, now known as Pain, became the nation's revered leader - a leader who planned to show other nations the tragedy of war by personally invading them. The group was also influenced by Madara and Obito, who manipulated the group to serve their own nefarious ends.

  (#1) Konohagakure

  Famous Members: Kakashi Hatake, Minato Uzumaki, Hashirama Senju

  Konohagakure is the hidden village in the Land of Fire, and it's the hometown of many of the series' main characters. As one of the five great ninja villages, it's led by the hokage, a powerful ninja who works with the other kages to either organize around mutual goals, or deal with conflict. Konoha was actually the first hidden village: it was started by Madara and Hashirama in order to build stability after years of constant fighting. It's home to multiple clans boasting unique jutsu, but fire-based techniques are especially common.

  (#5) Iwagakure

  Famous Members: Ōnoki, Han, Roshi, Deidara

  Iwagakure is the hidden village in the Land of Earth. As one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, it's led by a Kage known as the Tsuchikage. The village is frequently in conflict with neighboring villages like Konohagakure and Sunagakure, and has been known to openly betray allies. This made it difficult for the Tsuchikage to agree to work with the Shinobi Alliance later in the series. Most ninja from Iwagakure use Earth Release techniques. The village was home to two jinchuuriki, Han (Five Tails) and Roshi (Four Tails).

  In the Boruto timeline, the Tsuchikage tries to bolster his village's strength by creating Akuta, or Artificial Soldiers, but they quickly get out of control.

  (#12) Kusagakure

  Famous Members: N/A

  Kusagakure is one of Konoha's allies, but their exact position can be hard to read. That's because their ninja tend to be skilled at closely reading others while concealing their own intentions, which can sometimes lead to effective diplomacy, and sometimes lead to deception. 

  While there aren't a lot of known characters from Kusagakure, it is home to several important locations, including the Kannabi Bridge, which was one of Iwagakure's biggest supply lines during the Third Shinobi War; the Tenchi Bridge, which Team Kakashi used to secretly meet with Kabuto Yakushi; and a massive prison housed in the Hōzuki Castle. The prison housed an ancient super weapon that made Kusagakure temporarily quite powerful.

  (#6) Sunagakure

  Famous Members: Gaara, Rasa, Sasori

  Located in a desert-like area in the Land of Wind, Sunagakure is a Hidden Village with a Kage - in this case the Kazekage - at its helm. Most of its ninja used wind-based techniques, though there are plenty of exceptions like Sasori's puppet-based moves and Chiyo's poison attacks. The nation has had numerous conflicts with Konoha and Iwagakure, but allied with them during the Fourth Shinobi War.

  Sungakure is home to the One-Tailed Beast, which was sealed inside of the Kazekage's son, Gaara, throughout most of the series. This was a risky move, because Gaara hadn't even been born yet when it happened, and the One-Tails was notoriously difficult to control. Rasa, the Kazekage, did it because the village was in desperate need of a power boost since the Land of Wind's daimyō was giving missions that would normally go to Sunagakure to the neighboring Konoha instead.

  (#10) Ryūchi Cave

  Famous Members: Manda, The Great White Snake

  Some of the Naruto villages are actually Sage regions, populated by summoning animals. Ryūchi Cave is home to the snakes, which both Orochimaru and Sasuke summon during battle. The leader is the Great White Snake, who puts visitors through multiple trials in order to teach them Sage Mode. Those who fail the test will have their chakra consumed by the snakes, but those who succeed can achieve great power. The cave is also the origin for the Jugo Clan's ability to constantly absorb natural energy.
