Foosha Village

Foosha Village (フーシャ村) is a village that is located on Dawn Island and is part of Goa Kingdom. It is where the story of One Piece starts from. According to the Colorwalk 1 East Blue map, it is located near the larger landmass close to the Red Line northeast of East Blue.

A prominent feature of this sleepy village is Mt. Colubo in the background. Several notable mountain bandits live in or around the mountain near the village, causing the occasional chaos to the villagers or assisting them as needed. The town appears to be rather unknown, thus the townsfolk are thrilled and proud that their town might be known for producing an infamous pirate. They are led by mayor Woop Slap who usually is against most ideas presented by the other townsfolk on pirates.

The town also has a local Sea Monster called Lord of the Coast. However, it is not as big as some of the sea monsters in the rest of the world and there is no indications it is as big of a problem as others of his kind may create. This monster is the reason why Shanks lost his left arm by saving Luffy.

History
This is Monkey D. Luffy's hometown where he was born and grew up in. It is also where Luffy met Red-Haired Shanks ten years prior to the beginning of the storyline.

After the Battle of Marineford was over, Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp returned, and though he had resigned from the Marines, he took a station to protect the village and the island.

Partys Bar
Partys Bar (パーティーズバー) is the name of a bar in Foosha Village. Makino works here as the bartender.

It is, in a way, where the story first takes place. It was where Shanks is seen partying with his crew, and where the incident between Shanks and Higuma takes place. It was also where Luffy ate the Gomu Gomu no Mi and discovered its powers.

Translation and Dub Issues
Due to the name Fūsha being phonically similar to the color "Fuschia", several fans originally believed that to be the village's name. However, "Fūsha" is the Japanese word for "Windmill". The village having so many windmills makes it a given that it is the intended name of the village. Thus, the official translation is "Windmill Village" which is a direct translation of the Japanese.
