[edit] History

[edit] Super Mario Land

Sarasaland was once taken over by the purple alien Tatanga, who, under the orders of Wario, captured Princess Daisy and brainwashed Sarasaland's inhabitants. Fortunately, Mario arrived to conquer the invader inhabitants and rescue Daisy.

[edit] Other

Although Sarasaland hasn't actually made an actual appearance in many years, it is often mentioned in Daisy's official bios in various spinoffs and sports games.

It is believed that Daisy Circuit took place in Sarasaland in Mario Kart Wii. However, this is unconfirmed.

[edit] Name Origins

The word "sarasa" literally means "cotton print", referring to a type of decorated cloth originating in India 2,000 years ago. The printed or hand-painted cotton fabric (often with a floral or calico pattern) arrived in Japan after the 16th century, where it had an enormous artistic influence, even leading to "Sarasa" becoming a girl's name. There is also a type of goldfish called the "Sarasa Comet", which is also named for the cloth, to which its colour patterns bear resemblance.[citation needed]
