Thank you for informing me about the size of Hippopotamuses, Bears Armed! Full support, others must be made aware.

This is a step in the right direction and our deceased forebears would be proud. I do, however, expect a follow-up resolution regarding the absolute speed of Hippopotamuses, since their sheer size is not their only noteworthy feature.

Question on "Pygmy Hippopotomusses"

Postby Crentasia » Fri Jul 30, 2021 5:57 pm

I do agree with the fact that hippopotamuses are really quite large. However, if a hippo is much smaller than its peers, would that make it a "pygmy"? The Declaration states that there is "no such thing as a 'pygmy' hippopotamus," but if it isn't quite large, what is it? Would it be a pygmy, or should it be classified as its own species? If so, what would it be called?

Finally. A joke legislation that I actually want to vote for.
Minding my own business on NationStates since 2019. Yes, I screwed up my name. No, I don't care.

Thank you.
A diplomatic mission from Bears Armed, formerly stationed at the W.A. . Population = either thirty-two or sixty-four staff, maybe plus some dependents.
