This is a trivial and useless topic.

Which means nothing more than that it truly is a fitting subject for NationStates General.

Wiktionary:
sandwich (plural sandwiches or sandwichs)

A dish or foodstuff where two or more slices of bread serve as the wrapper or container of some other food.


From this, a hot dog is not a sandwich as it is made up of one piece of bread, not two or more.

Depends on how strict or loose your definition of a sandwich is.

I think that hot dogs are sort of a subspecies of sandwich.

Yes, they fit the definition of being a sandwich, but they have their own unique characteristics. Traditionally, you'll eat a standard sandwich with two hands, although only one is required to eat a hot dog.
The Federation of AZTLANTA
A socialist nation consisting of Mexico, California, and Central America, set in an alternate timeline in which Native American civilizations remained mostly isolated from colonial influence.
Aztlanta was founded by the Aztec peoples, and have since become a major player in global politics.

You didn't make the OP, and the thread will be locked at 500 pages.

However, theoretically (in a spherical NSG in a vacuum...): Assume 20 posts in a page, 30 X 500 = 10,000 posts, 1 post every 2 weeks = 20,000 weeks = ~383 years = locked by the superintelligent AI mods in 2401.
