Punlandian History

Ancient Punlandia:

• Contrary to popular belief, there never existed a Lost City of Atlantis. It was actually a *continent* named Atlantis, and the majority of the continent was taken up by the proud, ancient, noble nation of Punlandia.
• The Sinking of Atlantis was caused when Punlandia celebrated their First Annual “Everybody Leave Your Faucet Running Day.”
  • Punlandia’s original neighbors were less than pleased by this.

Most Important Agriculture Industries:

• Our corn is a-maize-ing
• Wool. Since ancient times, Punlandians have been known for spinning yarns. But one time our sheep overheard a Punlandian disparagingly refer to other people as “sheeple,” and they took up to term to launch a “sheep are people too” movement. They unionized and won full rights–some even run for office and win (they especially love getting elected as town dogcatchers, “for the irony” they claim).

Punlandian Future History:

• In the year 2323, a genius talking golden retriever, Dr. Justin Thyme, will time-travel to ancient Punlandia to avert a series of misfortunes both big and trivial, bringing lots of fancy technology and a wide variety of anachronistic pop culture references to Punlandia’s past. She was mother to many puppies who became and will in the future be important Punlandian figures. See also: Punlandia’s Golden (Retriever) Age.
