Like the tittle says, say something interesting about the place or people you live in, it could be your country, state, city, street, family, whatever

it can be something historical, folklore, racial traits, accent, whathever

so... anyway here's one about my country:

According to folklore during the dark ages my country had 365 recipes for codfish, one for every day of the year

One of my ancestors worked as King Henry VIII's personal chicken farmer and became quite rich. Unfortunately, another one of my ancestors from a century or so later on was an obsessive gambler and gambled all the money away. If it weren't for my gambling bastard ancestor, I would be rich.

Ironic you sort of listed everything Souther California is to me (Im from Oakland, sort of, so we do have gangs)

We also have one of the highest GDPs (GNP? forgot which one signifies income/profit) in the world, I think we were like number ten, just behind Germany and Japan :D

Porn is awesome

Hollywood is entertaining

Gangs are everywhere, and theyre much more civil in Northern Cal (Where I'm from).

We also have skiing, desert dunes, beaches, lush forests, and awesome historic sites all withing six hours (at least from where I live).

The only thing California lacks is seasons.

My country is full of AIDS, violent crime, rude people, dropping standards and STILL no official Xbox Live support. I have to sign on with a US address. Oh, and we can ONLY vote for black presidents, none of which have even a tenth of Obama's intelligence. I hate my country :?

My country used to be split into several independent kingdoms. Around the late 19th century, the British were using some dirty tricks to get power from these states, and in one of them, a rebellion started in which a British Resident was assassinated while bathing in a river.
