The Quadling Country is the southern division of L. Frank Baum's fictional Land of Oz. It is distinguished by the color red, worn by most of the local inhabitants as well as the color of their surroundings. Like the Munchkin Country, the outer regions of the Quadling Country are rich, pleasant and beautiful, inhabited by kind and friendly people, while the areas closer to the Emerald City (i.e. most of the regions between the mountains of the Hammer-Heads and the Forest of the Fighting Trees) are forbidding and dangerous (see "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" section below).

“Four or five whippoorwills
Have come down from their native ledge
To the open country edge
To give us a piece of their bills.”
