The Mushroom Kingdom is a famous land where most of the games in the Mario series takes place. Its leader is usually Princess Peach, however, in Super Mario RPG it is the Chancellor of the kingdom. The Kingdom's capital is Toad Town.
King Bowser Koopa has tried, and failed, to take over the Mushroom Kingdom on many occasions. He, however, has ambiguous ambitions when it comes to gaining control of the Kingdom. Often it seems he is most interested in simply marrying Princess Peach.
Super Mario Bros. 3 takes place not in the Mushroom Kingdom but in the Mushroom World. For now it is meer conjecture, but many people have come to the conclusion that Grass Land is in fact the Mushroom Kingdom (in the comics King Toadstool is based on the King of Grass Land. The manual for the game states that the Mushroom Kingdom is simply the gateway to the Mushroom World. This is not elaborated in future games.
