DK Island

Donkey Kong Island is the home of the Kongs and most of the enemies that Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong come accross. It is also home to the banned relatives of the Kongs, that you also come accross in some of the games. It is actually quite a large island containing many locations and many residents. The Island is first debuted in Donkey Kong Country.

It is very likely that Donkey Kong Island is located on Mushrom World, for several reasons. One being that most of the games created by Shigeru Miyamoto take place on Mushroom World, so why wouldn't the Donkey Kong games? Mushroom World is full of islands, one of them could be DK Island. The other reason being that Mario and Donkey Kong are seen in the same game. The first game that they starred in, they starred in together. If they were in the same game, then they most likely live on the same planet. It is even said that Donkey Kong was Mario's pet gorilla, but Mario was mean to him, so he stole Pauline. Donkey Kong, being Mario's pet, must have lived with him.

Locations

 * Kongo Jungle: The Largest and most famous jungle on the entire island. Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Cranky Kong, and many other Kongs reside here.  It is the first world in Donkey Kong Country, and has appeared in many Mario and Donkey Kong games since.
 * Monkey Mines: Mines that border on ancient Kremling-built temples.
 * Big Ape City: The only urban part of the island.  There are skyscrapers, apartments, and construction sites.  This city is the assumed capitol of Donkey Kong Island.
 * Monkey Mountains: Very tall mountains that reach the clouds.
 * Chimpanzee Clouds: This world takes place in the clouds above Monkey Mountains.
 * Vine Valley: This world takes place in a temperate forest on a cliff side near Gorilla Glacier.  An ape-built Treetown is found here.
 * Gorilla Glacier: The peak of the mountain on DK Island.  Another Treetown is found here as well.
 * Chimp Caverns: Caverns and mines in the side of DK Island.
 * Kremrock Industries, Inc. This was once a lush and green area of DK Island, but the Kremlings built their factories, and the place became polluted.  It is assumed that the Industries were closed down long ago, but there are still plenty of Kremlings roaming about the area.
