Creation and Usage Notes

In Baum's original conception of Oz, each of the five territories had a color associated with it: Green for the Emerald City; purple for the Gillikin country; yellow for the Winkie country; red for the Quadling country; and blue for the Munchkin country. I thought I would keep to it and make bomi double for "good". (Also, of course, the form is based on Baum's name.) -David J. Peterson 03:57, 13 September 2020 (PDT)
