It's a chaotic realm ruled by Slaads, a strange planar monster.2e decides it's not PC enough so renames it. The realm of Johnson Avenue! Slaads are still there but now they're given a detailed background. Turns out they're all bed wetters so act chaotic because they're cranky. They are having an epic war with the Water Elementals, who won't help wash their sheets.2e's Planescape. Turns out the best Italian food in the planar realms is here. Send out the tourist brochure to all adventurers (you can now play a Slaad!)3e comes around and realizes how dumb 2e's changes were. But can't change it all back since their friends wrote that junk, so we get instead. Stupid longer names! Welcome to "The Many Limbo Streets of Johnson Avenue".3.5 we get some details. The frogs are still there but the reason for the war with the elementals is because of global warming and the assassination of their king Algorik, who warned the frogs not to water their lawns during the day.4e...Turns out the frogs were similar enough to Treants so are gone (plus there's plenty of frog-like faeries in the plane of Girls Gone Feywild!). Limbo is merged with 3 other planes to create the new chaotic realm of "Chaos Zone".Personally I just hated the 2e name changes and Planescape just killed outer planes for me. RIP and good bye Cosmos Wheel! But these new plane names do suck.</blockquote>
