You know you're a Lanosian if:

you've never had to wait until you're 21 to get anything for adults.
when you vote, you tend to punish the candidates that advocate class warfare.
you rush off to the military recruiter after college or high school since every man's doing it!
you do the above to avoid getting drafted.
medical pot is now a way to get legally high.
the Drug Enforcement Administration is on your ass 24/7 if you're growing medical pot.
you vote for Marina Aruthyan because of her policies, not her looks.
you bought a full-auto M16A3 rifle and body armor and even the National Police gives you no hell for it.
you whap someone when they complain of high taxes.
the National Government actually gives a shit about your opinion.
your Congressman/Senator is afraid of losing their jobs next election season.
driving isn't a hassle except if you live in Keinsteinem.
getting a passport or a national ID card takes two weeks. A week or so if you rush it.
you're proud to be a Lanosian and screw the rest.
you loves ponies even before they got their rights.
you adopted one. (added by request of Marina)
buying things is cheap and inflation is not an issue.
you yearn for the days of another 1990-1991 great economic period.
you have no idea this list even got out...
you know when a gun store is open 24/7 and know where to go.
Lanosian is used when you want to speak to people like the olden days.
and only if you have to use force to defend yourself, you use a bat before the gun.
going on a trip to Novestra or Longrova involves flying or driving through the Empire of Onostov. Never take a ferry. Weather sucks if you do.
you always use a ferry or a plane to get to the Pokemon Islands or the other islands. You can't drive anyways.
going to college is cheap and you get out in four years. (really?!)

Big shock there. Can't think of a single real-life country where this would apply. Razz

OK, that's a little distrubing.

You know you're Enpolian if:

- You've never owned a gun in your life
- It takes you nearly a day to go from one end of town to another thanks to traffic
- You've never heard of elections or democracy
- Ponyism is a somewhat laughable concept to you
- You mistake the native population for ghosts
- The use of swearing is identical to the use of everyday words
- You have to bribe a police officer every 10 minutes
- Corruption is dubbed as "politics"
- You start making a list like this, only to run out of ideas
