China
Home to one of the most ancient cultures of the Eastern Hemisphere of Earth, and one of the most wizard-friendly. (The name is an Anglicization of the term ä¸å or ZhÅngguó. See the Wikipedia entry for much, much more information about everything Chinese except the wizardry.)
An unusually high percentage of the wizards classified as the "world's greatest" have come from China, especially during the period of its greatest cultural flowering between the Han and Tang dynasties. Notable among these wizards were the wandering healer Fei Chang-fang; the specialist in animal mastery, Ge Hong; the strategist and tactician Kiang Tzu-ya; Ko Hsuan the "Ghost Catcher"; the mystic T'ai-hsuan Nu, widely known as "the Lady of the Great Mysteries"; Mahku, the "People's Protector": the prodigy Tung-fang Shuo; and the unpredictable T'ang Kuang-chen, also known as "the Woman Who Flew on a Toad".
