Architecture (Earth-1529)

Architecture is seen through the shinobi world, heavily diverging and varying through the five great nations and the minor nations. Each nation uses different materials to construct their buildings, such as metal, stone, ice, rock, among others, depending on the specific climate of the nation and the available equipment, in addition to cultural traditions and inheritance. Places such as temples, palaces, houses, and huts are all examples of architecture.

Land of Fire
The Land of Fire is somewhat less diverse and more centralized when compared to other major nations, such as the Land of Earth. With their significant technological development, most of their big cities, such as the capital, Republic City, or the hidden village, Konohagakure, have an industrial sector.

Construction methods and designs in the Land of Fire are usually more elaborate than most areas of the other five great nations, although not as innovative as that of the Land of Storms, despite it being a minor nation. Houses and halls are generally built out of wood and stone. Roofs are painted with warm colors, with the most prominient ones being red and orange, although gold is also very popular. Many of these iconic designs were inspired by the ancient Sun Warrior civilization.

The Land of Fire has a tendency for building constructions as vertically as possible. This is more widely seen near the capital, where mountain formations limit the stable places for construction.

Republic City, the nation's capital, is a true urban center, with architectural sophistication, taller buildings and high development. The city incorporates the use of traditional ornamentation with advanced structural techniques,

Land of Lightning
As the peoples from the Land of Lightning mostly live in mountains, near the clouds, their architectural ideals reflect that. Many houses and settlements, such as Kumogakure, are created atop mountains and reach the clouds. Houses and residences built around massive trees are also a common sight. The first settlers of the Island Turtle famously constructed the Tailed Beast Temple, where the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails, both in possession of Kumo, would go to meditate. The Land of Lightning Royal Palace, home to the Lightning Monarch, is considered an architectural marvel duo to its position between two of the nation's tallest mountains.
