From YKTTW

Mister Six: Awesome! I thought this was going to be one giant trope, but breaking it down like this is a great idea.

Adam850: I was briefly tempted to put Canada Eh under Eagleland.

-By the way: shouldn't "Thirty seconds..." and "Tokyo is the..." both be under Far East?

Morgan Wick: Seems to me that most of the "America The Book" quotes don't fit the tropes other than being in the same place.


adam850: How about the left coast? San Francisco to British Columbia. Rainy, tree huggers, hippies, coffeehouses everywhere, maybe bigfoot, the Granola Girl , and all the generalizations you can make about Seattle.


Mister Six: That's at least partly covered by New England (could that do with a funnier name?)

Faste Eddie: Left Coast would have been good, but it really is used to refer to the whole of the Pacific coast. Ecotopia has been used to refer to the pacific northwest in some novels. Rain Country might also work.


Mister Six: Took "*One language multi language country" off the main page because it's not a wiki word and as far as I can tell it's not an entry either...
A slight change of definitions for the main page, because quite a few of those are NOT distilled into "the most basic form" but rather incorrect/outdate stereotypes?

Mister Six: Edited.


Passerby: A good number of these just seem to be a variant on "Largest City is Country" (New York is America, London is England, Paris is France, Tokyo is Japan, etc.)


Sofos: Categorized tropes by continents for more comfortable browsing. Would be awesome to make a Hollywood Atlas map, but I don't know the image size limits here.
