For some fun:
Google your NS nation's name. This will probably work best if you made up your nation and isn’t a real word, like mine.
What I found besides some random NS forum posts:
A sight with a bunch of quotes some guy liked that included NS quotes. I, in all my asshollyness, was quoted five times, more than anybody else. My ego is soaring at the thought of this random person’s admiration.
Apparently, Undelia is a class of plant, a French nanotech company and a Spanish word for something in Star Wars.
My personal favorite: I was mentioned on a message board/support group for overweight people for being a general asshole to the fatties on the NS forum. Single greatest accomplishment of my life thus far.
So, google your NS nation and share the craziness.
The South Islands

I got 14,700 hits for "The South Islands".
Damn me for picking such a generic name!

Mine's nothing special, apparently. A few mentions, but towards the end they're mostly random matches for "Unchained Melody" among other things, coupled with the numerous expected references to The Silmarillion.

Something about a vet named Miss Colodia...

Good stuff. Random.
Rotovia-
18-10-2005, 06:08
ALMOST entirely NS related. With the exeption of my website www.rotovia.com in first place and a StarTrek based nation I created like four years ago on the bottom of the first page. Towards the end Rotovia appear dozens of times in lists of Spanish words starting with R. As yet I know of no actual language in which Rotovia is a word, so I assume this is purely coincidental.
229 matches in total.

Lots of French and Brazilian stuff (though mostly Brazilian), NS General post links, and apparently, General "Pol Potaria" is a character in an Anime series. Also, there's a travel company in Hong Kong called "Potaria Ltd."... 999 results in all.
Weird shit, man.

Mine only gave 2 results, both from NS. Man, do I know how to pick a name. My evil puppet of Bludgeoned Pigeons gave 576 results, but the phrase of "bludgeoned pigeons" suprising (to me) only gave it's NS home page.

I only found my NS posts, and misspellings (lacerod...) ... and a Spanish or Portuguese document on hydrofoils, where the laerod seems to have some significance in one of the figures.

Not much NS stuff. I came up with a lot of recipes and some discussions about the unusual structure of the Chicken Embryonic alpha -globin Gene, pi.
An image search comes up with a picture of me, some chickens and a website that sells "chicken pot pi" t-shirts, from which I shamelessly stole the image for my nation's flag.

The only non-NS thing that comes up when my full vainglorious moniker is sent out is a time when I am quoted on the SOHH.com (can someone explain to me who the hell that is?) forums in a thread about "white peoples" response to the so black comment.
First, where the hell do they get off deciding who is white, and who is black over the internet! Okay, so they were right, but that doesn't make it any better. Second, I am deeply ashamed that my one face to the world out of NS is this post: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9752435&postcount=14
Mainly because I am now probably going to be universally reviled as "teh racist" because I suggested that time travelling black people are both "zany" and involved in an "evil plot."
On the other hand, a search for just plain "Fiddlebottoms" yields a whole bunch of German (I assume, I only speak German at night and between the hours of 9 am and 11 am EST, and then only on certain weekdays) sites that talk about Lord Fiddlebottoms in reference (I believe) to some sort of game. Alternately, it is some sort of food item, exclamation (like damn or blast), and has something to do with some website that never mentions either Fiddles or Bottoms.
I am so proud.

Pi, I think.
For Czardas I have over 67,000 results. Damn standard words.
For Motuka, a lot of sites talking about the SAT in Italian, something in Native Hawaiian, and it's apparently someone's name as well, maybe Japanese. Damn nonstandard words. 14,200 hits.
For Colxia, 14 results, mostly NS but one about someone who appears to be selling a car.... :confused:
For Dvardis, 42 results. Apparently it's a word in Czech or some such language.
For Banduria, 146,000 results. Apparently it's some kind of string instrument, the name of a person, plus my nation.
For Steel and Fire, 19,000 results (the phrase), 18.7 million results (the words). Popular name, I guess.
For Atharites, two results, both from NS.
For The Czardaian Envoy, 164 results. All from NS. People talk about me a lot, I guess. :p
CSVA gets 91,000 results.

Using the now tarnished moniker that I once sported, I came across a site that linked to one of the posts I had made as a source for "Christmas Recipes.":eek:
To add to the confusion, that particular post didn't actually mention any Recipes, Christmas or otherwise. Now, yes, I do know that said list is probably just assembled by some sort of computer program tied to Google, but still, it is amazing.
Thank you, Interweb!

19-10-2005, 05:44

Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)
Quintine \Quin"tine\, n. [L. quintus the fifth: cf. F.
quintine.] (Bot.)
The embryonic sac of an ovule, sometimes regarded as an
innermost fifth integument. Cf. Quartine, and Tercine.
And its brand of beer...
So I guess my nation is an embryonic sac full of beer... this is a sad day for the nation of Quintine

Apparently, Senkai-den Houshin Engi is a manga by Fujisaki Ryuu (manga) and Tsutomu Ano (novel), who have worked on the story for about four years. This story mainly concerns the history of China, in particular the Yin Dynasty.
Holy peanuts! Oh, this sucks! Senkai actually exists in Lithuania which is in Europe: http://www.fallingrain.com/world/LH/0/Senkai.html . Oiginally, I wanted the name of ny nation to be Sinkai cause I thought it sounded cool (Japanese-like), but I didn't like it that "sin" was in the name (though I'm not a religious person), so I changed it to Senkai.
Hmph, Senkai Houshin is also a RolePlaying game released in Dec. 12 th, 2000 by Bandai, for the WSC (no idea what kind of platform that is). h, found another game: Senkai Ibunroku Juuntsutsumi Taisen ( http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/gbcolor/data/578699.html )
Ooooh, a webite with my name on it! http://senkai.ru/eng/ This apprently has something to do with some kind of karate-training organizaton... sweet...
Bah, I don't feel like checking all 20,600 results that came for "Senkai" :cool:

Pennterra: Lessee... An engineering company, links to a sci-fi book about a planet named Pennterra (which is what I originally made the name for- I wasn't aware of this, really), the name of a road, a young town...
Huh. For literary purposes, I think I'll go back to the single-n spelling; more unique.
Damn.
If it makes you feel better, we're perfectly tied (http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=Laerod&word2=Undelia)...
