The Village Hidden in the sand.
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 one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Sunagakure has a Kage as its leader known as theKazekage, who resides in a spherical structure in the centre of the village. There have been five Kazekage, the most recent being Gaara.
The standard attire of this village 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. Sand shinobi also tend to wear a common headpiece consisting of a head-wrap and cloth neck-covers to aid against the sun and sandstorms with a headband on top.
A natural defence of Sunagakure is its location in the desert with the protection of lack of water and sandstorms to discourage large-scale invasions. Sunagakure itself lies in a fortified valley behind cliffs of rock. The passage to travel into the valley is in a cleft between two cliff faces which provides a natural defence for the village making the area very hard to attack from the ground. The outside cliff face facing the desert has been terraced for a place for defending shinobi to stand up against assaulting forces. The buildings inside seem to be made of clay or stuccowhich would help to keep the buildings cool and allow them to also withstand the raging sand storms that are common in the area.
Often within the Sunakure or as it is now called, The Village Hidden In The Sand, it has sand users, also some rogue ninja from other clans, often these ninja will have Tracker Ninja come after them. Or this Village will have normal Shenobi trained in a way apart from Sand, but joined up with the Village Hidden In The Sand.

This is Gaara, he was the kazekage who lead the Village Hidden in The Sand, but due to his power he is now apart of the Ninja Alliance Force, as the Tsuchikage.
