Have you ever seen a map of the US?
As a guy from Northern Ireland, the fact that there is a “Derry” and “Londonderry” right beside each other in New Hampshire is hilarious
They were probably named that by guys from northern Ireland…
Probably the same guy, just fucking with everyone.
The US is too damn big and got populated too damn fast. You try coming up with 100 trillion place names in a couple hundred years without making any duplicates.
They even assimilated a ton of Native American names despite conquering and appropriating their lands. Goes to show how desperate they were for original names.
Hell, just a map of Texas
There’s a Tokio, Washington. They got Santa in Idaho. Those are just the funny ones in my area I know about.
Santa Claus, Indiana too
Springfield. Lafayette.
They’re mostly underwater now anyway. Last summer my brother taught english to some refugees.
This makes me sad. I always wanted to live there. But everyone just had to keep getting those polar ice caps so hot and bothered!
I blame Gilbert.

That’s a fun map. Thank you to whomever founded Banana!
