These nearly identical paragraphs were used by Geocities to feature the Aerican Empire.
Excerpt from the July 2000 World Report:
The Aerican Empire
Never heard of the Aerican Empire? Don't worry, it's not in your atlas. It's a micronation -- an imaginary state that exists only online. Aerica (AKA the Monty Python of micronationalism) has its own government, official language, and a religion that pays homage to the Great Penguin.
