Sarasaland

Sarasaland (referred to specifically as Sarasa Land in modern games) is a region of the Mushroom World, and the setting for Super Mario Land. The realm itself is ruled by Princess Daisy and is made up of four kingdoms: the oceanic Muda, the Easter Island-based Easton, the ancient Egyptian-styled Birabuto, and the ancient China-based Chai.

Super Mario Land
Sarasaland was taken over by the alien Tatanga, who captured Princess Daisy and brainwashed Sarasaland's inhabitants. Fortunately, Mario arrived to defeat the invader, rescue Daisy and free the land.

Other
Although Sarasaland has not actually made an actual appearance in many years, it is often mentioned in Daisy's official biographies in various spinoffs and sports games.

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" named for the cloth, to which its colour patterns bear resemblance.
