The Carpet People is a comic fantasy novel by British writer Terry Pratchett.

First published in 1971 and written when Pratchett was 17 years old, it was later re-written by the author when his work became more widespread and well-known.

"[4][5] The Carpet People contains a similar mix of humour and serious topics like war, death and religion, which later became a major part of the Discworld series.

There is an established civilization, complete with bureaucrats, taxation, and permits; there are people who resent the establishment; there is a need for both groups to find common ground in order to save their collective civilization.
