About
Duckburg /ˈdʌkbɜːrɡ/ is the fictional city, located in the fictional U.S. state of Calisota,[3] that serves as the home of Donald Duck; Scrooge McDuck; Huey, Dewey, and Louie; Daisy Duck and most of their supporting cast. Duckburg was first mentioned in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #49 in 1944, and was created by Carl Barks.[4]
The city is populated by various anthropomorphized animals, with dogs, different birds (including ducks, geese and chickens) and pigs as the most dominant ones. The mayor of the city is often depicted as a pig, whose name most of the time goes unmentioned and referred instead by readers as the Pig Mayor. However, in some stories the office of mayor is held by various dog characters which is probably a result of new elections.
The size and structure of Duckburg varied in the works by Barks, being adjusted to better fit the story he wanted to tell; which could vary from a small town, or a medium-sized city, to a bustling metropolis. Later writers and artists most of the time also continues this tradition. In one specific story by Barks, Monsterville (1961), Duckburg was even transformed into a futuristic city by Gyro Gearloose, however it proved that the citizens were not ready for the high level of technology that the new city provided. Thus the city was turned back to its old city structure.
