    Nope. It is a tornado that hit somewhere in the U.S.A.. But which tornado is it? I want to say though it is not the one that hit Joplin, Missouri, or Greensburg, Kansas.

     

    Also, really bad grammar your post has.

    MOST IMPORTANT NOTE YET! Your nation now needs a Currency, a coat of arms, and what type of economy your nation uses (the economy is like agricultural, tourism, businesses, etc.).

    I am waiting for more nations people. The longer it is you win.

    ATTENTION PEOPLE! I have come up with a theory! What if the Sonic games are set on a not-too-distant future? I have reasons:

     

    -In Generations, the cars in Speed Highway bare strong resemblence to Volkswagon cars.

    -Also, in Generations the car models in City Escape look very similar to cars from Izuzu, Lexus, and Ford.

    -Looking closely at the scene in which the Eclipse Cannon destroys Central City in Shadow The Hedgehog, at the very end, the area of the planet is exactly the same as the U.S.A. and Canada area of North America.

    -In a piece of dialogue that appears as a easter egg in Shadow The Hedgehog, Japan is mentioned by name.

    -Sonic was born on Christmas Island, Australia.

    -Various cities appear to have a newly remodeled layout. The cities with the original name are: Station Square (Miami), Central City (San Francisco, furthered by the fact that part of the city is called Mission Street), Empire City (New York City), Westopolis (Chicago).

    -Various real life companies appear on advertisements (SOAP shoes for example.)

    -Many of the countries in Unleashed appear to be areas of nations that have seceded or new areas that have been colonized: Spagonia (Tuscany, Italy), Apotos (Mykonos, Greece), Shamar (Petra, Jordan), Adabat (Somewhere in Indonesia), Holoska (Antarctica), Mazuri (Madagascar), Chun-Nan (Somewhere in China, preferably around the Great Wall).

    -Most English dubbings call the planet Earth.

    -Soleanna is most likely a new nation built on a artificial island somewhere near North Africa but also far enough away to have snow.

    -G.U.N. may be the future United Nations as it also covers the peace keeping of the world and that it also has a army (the U.N.’s however only has a small army of peace keepers).

    -Omochao (who is canon yes) says as a easter egg in SA2:Battles version of White Jungle that the fog reminds him of San Francisco (implying that he may have been built before S.F. was renamed and remodeled).

    -Crisis City notably has various vehicles that match Ford Crown Victoria Taxis, GMC pick-up trucks, and 2006 style Honda cars.

     

    Think about it. Maybe in the next canon game they take a darker tone by intoducing a disease that kills off humans, but leaves mobians intact, thus causing a…

     

     

    Additionally, I want to stop the Crisis City debate once and for all! Take a shot a ’06 Crisis City and Unleashed’s Skyscraper Scamper. You might find that they are a bit too similar to put it as any other city.

    Its an interesting theory. But I was under the impression that there wasn’t really a sonic canon. Since it gets rebooted so often its so hard to tell when what happened (especially since generations, which is also strange because sonic remembers silver even though the completely reverse time at the end) and now with ANOTHER reboot with buff knuckles and steampunk sonic… Who really knows where sonic canon is at this point. Anything is possible (except for there ever being a Sonic Adventure 3 <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_frown.gif” /> )

    There isn’t actually a reboot. Past events are mentioned in games and Sonic and company do remember ’06 but since it was erased all they did never happened though for some reason they still remember it.

     

    Sonic Boom, the TV show you mentioned, is a separate canon on its own. The games are their own canon with the comics, Sonic X, SatAM, AoStH, Underground, Sonic the Comic and Boom are all separate canons.

     

    To be precise I say the games are set some time in 2016. If Shadow was made approximately 50 years before this date, he was made in 1966 and the ARK was a secret project made by the government from the alien technology from the Roswell, New Mexico and Cape Girardeau, Missouri UFO incidents. Maria’s disease NIDS was a EXTREMELY rare variant of AIDS and the reason other people were on the research station with her was because of the testing of a prototype immunity project to NIDS.

    I have two extra reasons for that theory above.:

     

    -The helicopter in the opeming cutscene of the hero story of SA2 is a Russian Mil Mi-24.

    -Sigma seems to have replaced Sierra in military terminology.

     

    Countries please? We only have two…

    #432304

    Country contest is still open! Sheesh, this was started a long time ago and still only two? Gosh.

      I would have entered the contest if there weren’t so many rules and restrictions, and if the way to win wasn’t “write the longest thing you can!”

      It seems like we need some more diverse off-topicness in this thread…

      Please tell me what you want me to change.

       

      Actually it is not only scored by length but also:

       

      -Elaboration

      -How interesting your history is

      -The quality of the national leader

      -Foreign relationships (mine is a special case as every nation was wiped out by the Obama’s, who got reelected due to a new law)

       

      The many rules are put in place to make your nation have depth.

       

      Additionally, new requirements!

       

      -A National motto

      -Your nations rank in the economy (like 1st., 24th. all that good stuff)

      -The year of formation

      -The year your nation is wiped of the map (if you decide to)

      -Any important political figures (besides your leader)

      -A Demonym (stuff like American, Egyptian, you get the picture)

      -A GDP (how much money your country makes in a year)

      -A National animal

      -A National flower

      -The largest city

      -The National seal (a logo basically. Not the same as a Coat of Arms)

       

      It seems like we need some more diverse off-topicness in this thread…

       

      Like what?

        For the past several pages it’s been almost nothing but you asking for more submissions for your country-making contest, only to add even more requirements. Yeah, having more requirements may make entries more in-depth, but at least I don’t feel like writing a novel over something as trivial as a made-up country. This contest is more like a social studies homework assignment than a fun, imaginative contest at this point.

         

        For example, do most countries even have a national flower? That isn’t even a statistic that anyone cares about (at least anyone I know of). We also don’t need three separate insignias for our countries (flag, coat of arms, national seal); one should be enough. You’re adding stats that don’t really add anything to the “depth” of our countries, except to make it even longer. In books, film, video games, or any other story-telling art form, we call this “padding.” And not many people actively like padding.

         

        At least that’s my personal reason why I haven’t participated; that and the fact that making a fictional country doesn’t really appeal to me anyway.

        You can be as imaginative as you want! I actually saw a clever one on a YouTube video that inspired this contest where someone made Wal-Mart a country or all of Japan’s decisions are based on anime, So, yeah you can imaginative. The national flower is inspired by most U.S. states having one, which made me think, “What if the whole nation had one?”, so for the most part, that one is a experiment.
