[edit] History (based on 2005 film)

Willy Wonka began the candy empire, "twenty years ago", with a shop that sold his candy. The word spread across the world, and the world wanted his candy. So five years later, he built a chocolate factory, "fifty times as big as any other." His recipes were so popular, that competitors were stealing his secret recipes by sending in spies. Wonka, feeling betrayed, threatened to close to manufactory in an attempt to save it. But later, he re-opened the factory, and chocolate was created once more. But that left a mystery: No person has been in the factory for 15 years. Yet in the last decade and a half, the candy tasted better and better. It is revealed on the first of February that the workers are a race of people called the Oompa-Loompas.

The main rooms are The Chocolate, Inventing, Nut, and Television Rooms. However in 1971 film they replaced the Nut Room with the Egg Room, and in the book they show the Square Sweets That Look Round Room.
