Name: The Colbert Nation
Leader: Stephen Colbert as Head of State, George Merika Lincoln Rasbip as head of government.
Flag: It's too truthy to be directly posted on this page.
Composed of: A small area of Hell
Language(s): American, various Hell languages.
Description: Once a tiny backwater agrarian nation with a fairly decent potential for tourist activites like camping and hiking (though demons didn't do such things in the days of Azazel's reign), few people paid attention to the Principality of Vishbob, except to possibly poke fun at their odd ancient prophecy. A few human hotels opened up in the country, hoping to get prime real estate before the human populace at large discovered the great scenery and rushed into the country, though otherwise investment from Earth was nothing significant. But that all changed one morning after a small group of American explorers began hanging around the capital, Pawkwindin, intending to explore the nearby majestic purple mountains. The humans had rushed out of their hotel room in the morning, leaving Comedy Central playing when the demon maid, Alacybo came in to clean the room. And she saw something she would have never believed. As the opening credits began rolling on a human television program, a man jumped to the ground, bearing a flag, passing by words like star-spangled and truthy. And as the old woman continued watching she remembered a story she had been told as a child:

"Yea, and there shall come one of righteous truth, bearing truth in his arms, and his chest, and his wise eyes, and his great hair, and he shall proclaim all manner of truthiness and gloriousness of the glorious land. He shall soar on the truthy wings of a righteous bird, slaying his foes with flaming bolts of glory, and shall warn of various threats in a numerical, descending fashion, especially godless furry killing machines that slaughter salmon and are verily addicted upon jet fuel, even unto huffing and passing out. Yea, and the Truthy One shall bear sweet nourishment, like unto a dream filled with many sweet foods filled inside another sweet food."

Alacybo immediately knew Stephen Colbert fit the prophecy perfectly. She ran out in the streets telling the rest of her people what they saw, and soon their entire country was frantically trying to acquire enough televisions or computers to watch the Glorious Truthy One Himself. Vishbob scrapped their previous government system that they had used for thousands of years overnight, copying every method of government from the U.S.A, though with the difference of proclaiming Stephen Colbert President for Eternity. American flags and murals of Stephen Colbert punching communist bears can be seen on every street in the nation.

Sorry I'm late- I was too busy orgasming out American flags. And I'm not even American.

Approved. God help me.

It is your duty to write a new app for Utah or Virginia. As a challenge of sorts. You should take it or I'll call you a chicken and make "bawk bawk" sounds at my computer.

I'd do Virginia, as I have much more actual experience with that state than Utah, but I'm working on something else. In order for proper inspiration to write the Utah app I think I'd have to watch The R.M, or at least the bits of it prodding fun at Utah Mormons. So basically the majority of the movie.

Yes, Mormons make their own comedy films.

You could watch Napoleon Dynamite.

That's technically in Idaho, but we all know Idaho is just Utah's potato-growing colony.

I honestly hardly know the difference between Utah and Idaho.

Though Wiki says Idaho is only 23% Mormon. Still the largest religious group there though.

What is it? City? Province? State?: State
Language(s) spoken: English, Spanish
Description: The homeland of KFC, coal and wild game, Kentucky underwent a few changes after the Abrahamic War. Much of the coal industry left the state, as it was far cheaper to mine coal in Hell, as well as there being far less demand for the fossil fuel, though some of it still remains, as a surprising amount of patriotic Americans prefered supporting American miners. However, the state's signature restaurant gained astounding profits by opening up restaurants across Hell, and is still locked in intense competition with Popeye's and Bojangles for the lucrative Hell fried chicken market. KFC tourism is a much more significant portion of the state's economy now.

Another, more unexpected development for the commonwealth was the astounding increase of popularity of the Turtleman, Ernie Brown Jr. While Animal Planet had ended the show's run in 2019, as Ernie had grown tired of the attention and increasingly faked "jobs" written up for him to do by Animal Planet, many human colonists in Hell began rewatching old episodes of the show for inspiration for dealing with the terrifying fauna that lived in their lands. While some of the more combat-inclined humans managed to glean enough knowledge from the episodes, other settlers still needed assistance in removing lethal varmints from their homesteads. And thus began a tradition of sending a strong person from the family to Kentucky to learn the ways of catching critters from the grandmaster of it himself, Ernie Brown Jr. Deciding the people who were able to find his cabin in the woods were worthy of learning his secrets, the Turtleman began training an increasing number of disciples in what can only be described as non-lethal animal control martial arts. Today Turtlewrestling has over 6 million practitioners, as some of the Turtleman's better students as well as some of Turtleman's allies set up their own academies with the blessing of Ernie, and is used for combating and relocating all kinds of wild animals across the worlds.

For the record, I'm working on another one. That one might take a bit longer, though.

Link me and I'll add it.
