Line 83:
The '''Landgraab family''' is a wealthy family dynasty that resides in [[Sunset Valley]] in ''[[The Sims 3]]''; [[Bluewater Village]] in ''[[The Sims 2]]''; and [[Oasis Springs]] in ''[[The Sims 4]]''. The family name is occasionally spelt "'''Landgrabb'''", mostly in ''[[The Sims]]''. Which spelling is used depends on which game or expansion pack introduced the object or place or Sim that used it. [[Landgraab Industries]] is featured prominently in both building names in ''[[w:c:simcity:SimCity 3000|SimCity 3000]]'' and brand names for objects in ''The Sims''. Most of the family's wealth appears to come from property and real estate (In ''SimCity 3000'', they are associated more with residential property building, a role which resurfaced in ''The Sims: Bustin Out'' when most of the town seem to fail to pay their rent.) In other Sims games, they are more associated with commercial property, giving the Landgraab name a literal meaning of "grabbing the land".

===Origins===
The Landgraab fortune, or at least a sizable part of it, presumably dates back to a historical figure named Gregory Landgraab, who does not appear in any known version of the Landgraab family tree. If ''The Sims 2: Seasons ''is installed, a chance card for the [[Adventurer]] career reads as follows:
Line 102:
===The Sims 3===
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the Landgraabs are seen living in one of three mansions (the other two being the Goth mansion and the Alto mansion) and are already very wealthy. [[Nancy Landgraab|Nancy]] is a Landgraab by birth, born to [[Chester Landgraab|Chester]] and [[Queenie Landgraab]], and followed the family legacy by becoming vice president of the business district. At one point before the game, she married a modest, artistic doctor named [[Geoffrey Landgraab|Geoffrey]], who took his wife's name for its privileged status
It is unknown how he is related to the other Malcolms in ''The Sims: Bustin' Out'' and ''The Sims 2'', but his parents do not fit into the family tree given in ''The Sims 2''. So, while [[Malcolm Landgraab III|Malcolm III]] might have been a child during the [[Sunset Valley]] time frame, he would not be ''this'' Malcolm. However, it is possible that he could be the Malcolm in ''The Sims: Bustin' Out'' and/or ''The Sims (console)''. Regardless of their relationship to the rest of the family, they also are very well off. They live in a large home and have §75,000 in household funds.

'''Kermit Landgraab:''' From a Manx surname, a variant of the Irish surname MacDermott meaning "son of Diarmaid". Theodore Roosevelt used it for one of his sons. The name is now associated with Kermit the Frog.<br>
'''Kitty Landgraab:''' A diminutive of Katherine.
