- This article is about the kingdom. For other articles containing "Jollywood", see Jollywood (disambiguation).
Jollywood is the kingdom where The 7D takes place. It is currently ruled by Queen Delightful and protected by the titular characters.
Characteristics[]
Jollywood is mostly inhabited by dwarfs and has a population of just 101, as revealed in "Sleepytime". There are, however, citizens of regular size — Queen Delightful, Hildy and Grim Gloom, and Lord Starchbottom, to name a few.
Jollywood also have many animals of various species. The kingdom has various topographical features — from the mountains and valleys to the dark forest where the Glooms live to a tropical area with a beach. There's also a large Jollywood sign which itself is based on the real life Hollywood Sign over the Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles. Jollywood's major mode of transportation is the Sky Bucket, which enables the rider to reach their destination from above ground.
The 7D themselves maintain a private network of underground pneumatic tubes around the kingdom known as Funnel Tunnels, conveniently placed so they can aid Queen Delightful wherever she needs them the most, as well as traditional tunnels radiating from their mine.
History[]
The history of Jollywood is explained in the episode "The Rock of Sages". The area was unsettled and devoid of color until, one day, a group of dwarfs known as the Seven Sages met with seven colored gems. By accident, each of the seven gems formed the magical and powerful Rock of Sages. Together, the Seven Sages then used the combined gem to bring magic and color to the land. Later, creatures and more dwarfs arrive and a new kingdom is founded: Jollywood.
Later on, an evil wizard known as Lord Grudgemunger snatched the Rock of Sages from the Seven Sages and used it to rob the kingdom of its color and magic. The dwarfs, however, retrieve the gem and restored Jollywood to her beauty. Knowing how the gem is so important to the kingdom, the Seven Sages broke up the gem back to its seven components and hide them in the seven corners of the land so it won't be found by Grudgemunger once again.
