What so the yellow brick road and slippers have in common?

Odd when people try to have this whole different interpretation of The Wizard of Oz than what is shown. The only thing to do with farming is that Dorothy and the people in her life happen to live on a farm. the yellow brick road probably represents the phony fortune teller's being financially wealthy as he's continued to scam people (as it leads straight to his land), & the reason for the silver slippers is that she & her family aren't of wealth, don't earn much but enough to live by, & they just happen to be taken advantage of by people who have power over others. the phony fortune teller as said with his manipulations, the bike woman with her "you all should do as I say and not cross me or else" & almost getting away with getting rid of Toto.

What is the significance of dorthy's ruby slippers (The Wizord of Ozz) in history?

The majority of the names I use don't have any significance; I just pick them at random from names I think the parents would have named them. The only times characters have meaningful names are when the characters call themselves by names of their own choosing.

No.The most straightforward character symbolism interpretation I’ve read about “The Wizard of Oz” (from Quentin Taylor) suggests that Dorothy represents the general American public, the Everyman; that the Scarecrow represents farm workers and agrarian society; that the Tin Man represents industrial workers; and that the Cowardly Lion is a stand-in for William Jennings Bryan. The Wizard is a generic politician or banker, tricking people into doing things for him and using manipulation and sleights of hand, while the Witches represent various regional frictions at the time. This interpretation acknowledges L. Frank Baum’s own social and political activism, i.e. he was writing about contemporary American politics. This interpretation is not ironclad, of course, but I think the basic idea of the characters having some higher political symbolism is sound.Another popular theory is that the Oz story is about (at least in part) monetary policy, with the Yellow Brick Road (gold), Dorothy’s slippers (silver in the original story) and Emerald City (the dollar, “greenbacks”) representing Baum’s political opinions on the matter of the gold standard, i.e. the idea that the dollar (Emerald City) is fraudulent and lacking in value. The cyclone is supposed to represent political upheaval and/or economic upheaval following changes in monetary policy in the late 1800s. The gold road leads to fraudulence and trickery (the Wizard in Emerald City), while the silver slippers are what help Dorothy find her way home and are treated as a genuine, precious object — essentially it’s supposed to be an argument against demonetizing silver. Even the name “Oz” references the abbreviation for “ounce,” as in the weight of gold and silver. Bit nerdy, right?!Anyway. Whatever Baum actually had in mind in terms of symbolism and allegory, it was probably more complex than the Scarecrow merely representing a “straw man” argument.

The Red Brick Road is a fabrication of the movie, created to make the start of the Yellow Brick Road look more interesting. Here’s a decent shot of the two roads diverging from the film:There’s someone claiming that the road immediately stops on the film set, supported by this photo:But as seen in the previous shot, it definitely appears to continue off-set somewhere.As for the official sources for the books, you can find maps of Oz in various books (some of them are interestingly different!) Here’s a pretty good one:In the book, Dorothy doesn’t land in a city or town— she lands in some random location near the yellow brick road in Munchkin-land, where she’s met by the witch of the north (not Glinda, though, Glinda’s the witch of the south):“The road to the City of Emeralds is paved with yellow brick,” said the Witch; “so you cannot miss it.”As it turns out, Dorothy’s not far away from a few roads, but there’s no mention of other roads’ colors:There were several roads near by, but it did not take her long to find the one paved with yellow brick. Within a short time she was walking briskly toward the Emerald City, her silver shoes tinkling merrily on the hard, yellow roadbed.I can’t find any other maps that show other roads near where she landed— so whatever other roads were nearby were likely local roads, leading elsewhere in Munchkin Country.Interestingly, in the LEGO Dimensions video game, there is a red brick road, which leads… pretty much nowhere:You can see the Munchkin City there with the yellow brick road leading from it, and you can see the red brick road coming out the other side and leading… more-or-less off a cliff and off the gameboard!

What would you do if a twister picked up your house & when it dropped back down you were in the land of Oz?

What would you do if a twister picked up your house and the house was flying in the air and when it dropped down to the ground and you rushed to the front door and you opened the door and you discovered you were in a strange land, the land of Oz, how would you get back home, what would you do and when you got back home would people believe you when you told them where you had been, remember this is NOT a dream this is reality.
