Oompa-Loompas are a fictional group of diminutive humans who work at Willy Wonka's chocolate factory in Roald Dahl's books Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.
Origin and Appearance: They originate from Loompaland, a wild and dangerous region where they lived in treehouses to avoid various ferocious beasts. They are small in stature, and their appearance varies slightly between book editions and film adaptations.
Exploitation and Rescue: Willy Wonka "rescued" the Oompa-Loompas from Loompaland, offering them protection from predators and a steady supply of their favorite food, cocoa beans, in exchange for their labor. Some consider this arrangement to be exploitative, even if the Oompa-Loompas were supposedly happy with the arrangement.
Culture and Society: Oompa-Loompas are depicted as a close-knit community with their own distinct culture. They have a fondness for singing and dancing, often performing moralistic songs related to the misbehavior of the children visiting the factory.
Diet: Their primary food source prior to working for Wonka was green caterpillars, which they detested. Their love of cocoa beans is central to their employment at the chocolate factory.
Language: They speak their own language, which is sometimes translated into rhyming couplets in the books.
