Ix is a fictional region in The Oz series of novels created by L. Frank Baum. It neighbors the Land of Oz and Noland, and is ruled by the centuries-old witch-queen Zixi.

Ix is one of the settings featured in the 1905 novel Queen Zixi of Ix and its 1914 film adaptation, The Magic Cloak of Oz. It is later visited in The Silver Princess in Oz where it is home to King Chillywalla of Boxwood and his subjects, the Boxers, who box up everything, including their own bodies down to individual features.
