<P> The road is first introduced in the third chapter of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz . The road begins in the heart of the eastern quadrant called Munchkin Country in the Land of Oz . It functions as a guideline that leads all who follow it , to the road 's ultimate destination -- the imperial capital of Oz called Emerald City that is located in the exact center of the entire continent . In the book , the novel 's main protagonist , Dorothy , is forced to search for the road before she can begin her quest to seek the Wizard . This is because the cyclone from Kansas did not release her farmhouse closely near it as it did in the various film adaptations . After the council with the native Munchkins and their dear friend the Good Witch of the North , Dorothy begins looking for it and sees many pathways and roads nearby , ( all of which lead in various directions ) . Thankfully it does n't take her too long to spot the one paved with bright yellow bricks . </P>
