We do have Being Alive Is Jolly Cool Day, and it's very nice.

sounds like the name of a pretty dystopic holiday where the government drugs the population into being happy, tbh.

Idyllor

A nation of elves.

Based on the name, and the pretty short description, it seems like this would be pretty much an utopia, apart from the possible monster incursions.

[The Saucer Pilots]

Gestaðoliendbigeng has changed several times, with a new version of its holy text, "Cwidboc Gestaðoliendbigeng" (Proverbs of Founder Reverence), being published every few decades. The first version was published in 1129, followed by 1329, 1412, 1534, 1753, 1859, and 1967. Each version added changes to the mythos and more legendary founders.

Ah yes, the wonders of ever-changing social circumstances to fit explicatory narrations to.

[The Great Basin Kingdom]

"Serving others to serve yourself" and "Do you like to live?" are other unofficial slogans meant to hammer down the thought that one can be self-serving while selflessly carrying on with the mission to better the odds of self-preservation, under a wide variety of work environments.

I guess that's kind of catchy. If a subordinate complains about the job just ask them, "Do you like to live? Then do your job, or we all die." Or something like that. Grim, but I guess for the Anhu it's effective. Funny that the way to promote unselfish behavior is to appeal to... selfish behavior. If wanting to stay alive can be called selfish.

So you've just invented time travel, well done, you clever little sausage. Let's go back and fix human history, then.

No. Let me just steal the USS Constitution and put it in a bottle

Das Gateway der Freiheit

"Das Tor der Freiheit"or "Das Tor zur Freiheit" would look better imho. Gateways are IT-related.

The best thing is imho the "basically every ad" thing. I laughed much about this several times, when I have visited you, thanks for sharing.

There was once a quite rich European guy, let's call him Ludwig, who lived in the middle ages and went to church as a teenager and said: "So you are telling me, that this book in your hand is the best, most advanced and godly written book in the universe.

A perpetually expanding canon? Now that's very interesting. New editions of scripture are typical to religions, but new editions that substantially alter the content, whether by addition or revision, rather than just draw on new translations or manuscripts? It makes it clear what Gestaðoliendbigeng's priorities and values are and how they're different from what a reader might expect from the word "religion".

Destiny, it seemed, had strange designs for the continent.

Intresting

[Azur Deutschland]

The Finntopian Empire is a monarchy, with no plans of changing that, but, rather unusually, we have political parties and voting for more minor positions.
We use a ranked-choice voting system, with a "none of the above option" and if enough vote for that we must bring out an entirely new batch of choices.

elections must be quite the spectacle if there even are any, considering its a monarchy that doesnt want to budge.

[New San Andreas Republic]

Panzer-KampfKunst (Tank Combat/Martial Arts), or P-KK, is a team sport

Huh, that's an odd name. 'Tank Combat'? Man, those Germans and their literal naming conventions. You know, I bet they only call it that because it's like you're fighting as firm 'as a tank' or some thing like that.

that involves the usage of tanks and armored vehicles.

Man, this is so weird, it would make a great plot-line for an anime of some kind.

Hmm, you know their idiotic and unfunny posting style sort of reminds me of the Sand Andrea person I saw earlier.

gave me a laugh, great funny factbooks!

Calling your dogs, or any other pets for that matter: "fur babies" is punishable by public stoning in which everyone can join in, and many do.

[Feyrisshire]

The Maoists wanted to be their own Commune inside the city, but it turned out to be a forced labor camp, anyone who was “subpar” was mauled by dogs, mutilated, and whipped to go faster. The city sent a Greek Peacekeeping Unit to try and stop it. It was unsuccessful. In July, 1986, a small group of Marxist finally intervened and shut down the camp. They did not want to have poverty, but a utopia. The Maoists were merged with the Marxists after the closing of the commune.

They are all revisionists.

The most interesting things you will ever read

Never expected to get Rick-Rolled in a factbook but here we are.

[The Great Basin Kingdom]

This leaf holds knowledge on Her Caserly and Kingly Majesty, the House of Hannover, as well as the names of all of the kings and queens to have ever held kingdom over the lands called England, starting from the grounder of our home, King Alfred the Great of the House of Wesseax.

I know this sentence isn't all that exciting on its own, but I felt pretty pleased when I figured out how to parse some of the Anglish words while reading, like "Her Caserly and Kingly Majesty" is "Her Imperial and Royal Majesty", and "ever held kingdom" is "ever ruled", and "grounder" it "founder". It's a fun example of how the Anglish can be immersive without losing comprehensibility. ("caserly" as it turns out is already in the wordbook so I could've looked that one up at least, but hey let me feel a teeny bit proud for a sec)
