Wonderland is a separate universe that exists alongside Alice's original world. Though Alice believes it is a dream at first, Wonderland is a world that existed before Alice ever entered it.
Background[]
Wonderland is the world where all of the games series takes place. It is also described as the world of never ending games. There are currently four known countries in Wonderland - the Country of Hearts, the Country of Clover, the Country of Diamond and the Country of Spade, they are all worlds that are parallel to each other. Their names are based on the names of the suits of playing cards. The Dream World is the border between Alice's world and Wonderland. The only time that there is any real change in weather is during April Season, the season in which lies are forgiven and different seasons come to the different territories of Wonderland.

Country of Hearts[]
The Country of Hearts is where Alice first arrived to in Wonderland and is under the jurisdiction of Vivaldi. There are four territories - the Castle of Heart, Hatter Residence, Amusement Park and Clock Tower.
Heart Castle[]
The Heart Castle is where Vivaldi rules. It has the biggest influence in the power struggle and has the most role holders living there tied with the Hatter Residence. Peter White, Ace and the King live there as well.
Hatter Mansion[]
The Hatter Mansion is the headquarters of the mafia. "Hatter Family" is used as the mafia's alias. The leader of the Hatter Family is Blood Dupre. He likes to set his own rules within the territory. Other role holders that live in the Hatter Residence are Elliot March and the twins Tweedle Dee and Dum.
Amusement Park[]
The Amusement Park is a hobby of Gowland and has the weakest influence in the power struggle. Boris Airay also lives there as a freeloader since he's not tied to any territory.
Clock Tower[]
The Clock Tower is a neutral zone and is the only place where the power struggle doesn't take place. It is located in the center of the city around it and is the only place not governed by Vivaldi. Julius Monrey is the owner of the Clock Tower and the Guardian of Time. It's his duty to guard time and to fix clocks.
Country of Clover[]
The Country of Clover is another country in Wonderland that the world will move to at random. Instead of the Clock Tower, the neutral zone is the Clover Tower, headed by Nightmare. Although it is implied that the amusement park CAN be present in Clover, when Alice first finds herself in Clover, the Forest has taken the place of the Amusement Park. However, the Hatter Residence and the Castle of Hearts are present in Clover.
Clover Tower[]
The Clover Tower is the largest building in the Country of Clover, and is a neutral power. In the Country of Clover, there are regular meetings held at the Tower of Clover between the role players of the Hatter Residence, the Castle of Hearts, the Forest, and the Tower of Clover. Nightmare Gottschalk is in charge of the Tower, and lives there, along with Gray Ringmarc.
Heart Castle[]
The Heart Castle is where Vivaldi rules. It has one of the biggest influences in the power struggle and has the most role holders living there. Tied with the Hatter Residence. Peter White, Ace and the King live there as well.
Hatter Mansion[]
The Hatter Mansion is the headquarters of the mafia. "Hatter Family" is used as the mafia's alias. The leader of the Hatter Family is Blood Dupre. He likes to set his own rules within the territory. Other role holders that live in the Hatter Residence are Elliot March and the twins Tweedle Dee and Dum.
Forest[]
Also known as the Forest of Doors, the Forest is mostly the same as a normal forest, except for the doors in the trees and the signs pointing every which way. The doors have voices that can only be heard by people who are lost at heart, and they call out to that person to open them- the doors can lead to other places, but only Boris is able to control where they lead. Pierce lives in the forest, although he spends most of his time at the amusement park when it is accessible.
Joker's Territory[]
During April Season, Joker's circus is set up in Joker's Forest.
Country of Joker[]
The Country of Joker is a traveling country. As Joker's circus goes across Wonderland, the Country of Joker temporarily takes the place of another country. This is seen in Joker no Kuni no Alice where it starts out as the Country of Clover, but then gets replaced by the Country of Joker and new territories are added and moved around. It is implied that the Country of Joker can replace any existing country, so most likely it would reflect whatever country it replaced (ex if it replaced Diamond country it might have The Museum, Train Station, Castle of Diamonds, Hatter Mansion, The Circus, and maybe other territories from other countries).
As the Country of Joker moves around, April Season always follows.
Hatter Mansion[]
The Hatter Mansion is the headquarters of the mafia. "Hatter Family" is used as the mafia's alias. The leader of the Hatter Family is Blood Dupre. He likes to set his own rules within the territory. Other role holders that live in the Hatter Residence are Elliot March and the twins Tweedle Dee and Dum.
Clover Tower[]
The Clover Tower is the largest building in the Country of Clover, and is a neutral power. In the Country of Clover, there are regular meetings held at the Tower of Clover between the role players of the Hatter Residence, the Castle of Hearts, the Forest, and the Tower of Clover. Nightmare Gottschalk is in charge of the Tower, and lives there, along with Gray Ringmarc.
Amusement Park[]
The Amusement Park is a hobby of Gowland and has the weakest influence in the power struggle. Boris Airay also lives there as a freeloader since he's not tied to any territory.

Joker's Territory[]
Joker's Territory consists of whatever is needed at the time, with a few consistent areas being a the circus, Joker's forest, the prison, and a train.
Country of Diamond[]
The Country of Diamond is the fourth country that Alice goes to in Wonderland. In the Country of Diamond, the four territories are the Castle of Diamond, Hatter Residence, the Train Station and the Graveyard. It is to be noted that aside from the territories the Country of Diamond is almost identical to the Country of Clover, with near identical roads, mountains, forests, and towns. This is possibly because Alice in the Country of Diamond is set in the past.
Hatter Mansion[]
The Hatter Mansion is the headquarters of the mafia. "Hatter Family" is used as the mafia's alias. The leader of the Hatter Family is Blood Dupre. He likes to set his own rules within the territory.

Diamond Castle[]
Crista Snowpigeon is the Queen of the Castle of Diamond while Sidney Black is her Prime Minister. In Alice in the Country of Diamonds ~Wonderful MIRROR World~, teenage Ace lives there as well. The Castle's building theme is the diamond, with white and yellow as the main colors. Like the Castle of Hearts, it has a large maze leading to the front door and a town with the same theme as the Castle. The town has a more laid back feel than that of the Castle of Hearts.
Train Station[]
The role holders living at the Station are Boris Airay and Nightmare Gottschalk, while Gray Ringmarc lives elsewhere but is affiliated with the Station due to his desire to kill Nightmare, or more accurately his desire to help Nightmare and keep him from being killed by anyone else. The trains at this Station are similar to the Doors of the Forest: they take the passengers where they want most to go. If one is unsure of their destination, the train cannot return and may well crash. Train accidents are a regular occurrence at the Station; as life does not matter, it is only the cleanup that bothers anyone.
Graveyard and Museum[]
Jericho Bermuda the Gravekeeper and Museum Curator is in charge of this territory; Julius Monrey, who needs to stay near Jericho for a particular reason, lives here as well, while Ace lives/lived at the Museum as a child (eventually Julius threw him out). Bodies aren't buried in the graveyard since when the residents of Wonderland die, their bodies disappear and their clocks get fixed by Julius. Instead, the memorable possessions of the person who died are buried.
Country of Spade[]
Hatter Mansion[]
The Hatter Mansion is the headquarters of the mafia. "Hatter Family" is used as the mafia's alias. The leader of the Hatter Family is Blood Dupre. He likes to set his own rules within the territory.

Train accidents are a regular occurrence at the Station; as life does not matter, it is only the cleanup that bothers anyone.
White Territory[]
White territory is run in form of a cult, but in reality is not much different from mafia. It is ruled by Quin Silver a figure resembling a pope/church leader. Faceless serving directly to Quin are nuns and priest like. The other roleholder that lives here is Lewis Carroll.

Joker's Territory consists of whatever is needed at the time, in Spade we see it in form of Circus, especially in side endings.
