Mushroom World

Mushroom World is the name of the planet Mario and his friends reside on. Mushroom World is the greater setting of most of the games in the Mario series and sub-series. The Mushroom Kingdom, Dark Land, Star Haven, as well as various other lands and kingdoms associated with the Mushroom Kingdom, such as Dinosaur Land, the Beanbean Kingdom, and Sarasaland, all exist on the Mushroom World. However, it is harder to determine if locations with less connections to Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom exist on this planet or on similar planet This includes certain locations from the Donkey Kong series and WarioWare series, such as the DK Isles, Timber's Island, and Diamond City, which may exist on Mushroom World, on the world of Earth, or on a world in another dimension similar to both Mushroom World and Earth.

The Relationship Between Mushroom World And Earth
Mushroom World and Earth are almost always believed to be separate planets, though confusion does exist in the form of remarkably similar ecosystems and terrains, several species of animals and obvious human populations on Mushroom World.

In other media such as the various cartoon series and comics, Earth and Mushroom World were understood to be different versions of the same planet in separate universes. Mushroom World was noticeably cartoony and slightly surreal (eg. Pasta Land, Down Under Land). In most sources travel between the two planets was possible through warp pipes, a fact that has remained consistent throughout.

Additionally, on a few occasions in the cartoon series, Mushroom World was actually referred to as Earth.

Places not associated with the Mushroom Kingdom, such as Diamond City, may exist on Earth, if not Mushroom World or some other similar world in another dimension.
