Bavaria is a small country that imbodies all of the stereotypes people think of when you mention Germany. It has a population of 23,000 and it's currency is Flippancy.
In Bavaria, "Benjamin Franklin" is the name for a wedgie. An Edgar Hoover is where the pants rip, and a Hoosier is where the pants are hoisted above and over the victims head.
Other interesting facts about Bavaria include the supply of free ale to children (much like milk in other countries) and a class system based solely on the number of pairs of lederhosen possessed. (incidentally, the richest man in Bavaria has 5 pairs, which is seen as something of an extravagance).
It is interesting to point out that due to the durability of lederhosen, there are over 400 wedgie-related deaths every year in Bavaria.
