The 55-State Union Series Sports Almanac - Canadian Football League - Overview and Clubs

The Canadian Football League (CFL) is the highest level of Canadian football in the world, and consists exclusively of teams based in Canada. Officially formed in 1958 following a merger of the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union and the Western Interprovincial Football Union, the CFL is one of Canada's most-watched sports leagues and broadcasts in other countries including the United States. There are 12 teams in the league, and each team plays 20 games in the regular season. The Grey Cup is the championship game at the end of the season, and the namesake trophy is given to the winners of the Grey Cup. The Grey Cup dates back to 1909, making it one of the oldest professional sports trophies in North American sports.

Regions of Zeconnemeleth

Image
  A map of the four geographic regions of the U.S. state of Zeconnemeleth (click to enlarge). For political, economical and cultural reasons, there are 4 regions in the U.S. state of Zeconnemeleth, which are not necessarily geographically distinct from one another. These four regions were originally drawn up as the three original counties of the Protectorate of Zeconnemeleth, North Carolina which lasted from the jurisdiction's establishment in 1779 to 1861, when Zeconnemeleth seceded from North Carolina and became a federal territory the following year in 1862 and from that point the three counties were gradually broken up into the 56 counties of today. The original three counties of the Protectorate of Zeconnemeleth - Northern Zeconnemeleth, Central Zeconnemeleth and Southern Zeconnemeleth - were subsequently divided into the current 56 counties between 1862 and 1926 and are now considered regions by the Zeconnemeleth state government with Central Zeconnemeleth split into North Ce...

"Mallettbarr Plainess" - A Summary of Mallettbarr Culture and Defining Characteristics

Mallettbarr isn't called the Prudence State because of the implication that its residents are humble, low-key and are extremely disinclined to stand out from one another – Mallettbarrites are socially prudent, tend to be largely ignorant of the world outside their own physical constitutions, and are unwavering (indeed, the state's motto). Anti-social, curt, brusque, abrasive, provincial, grumpy, aloof, cold, distant, insecure, self-defensive and standoffish are not words you'd expect to describe someone from a place that's in between Altamasstachia and Hawaii, but these stereotypes are accurate and appropriate given their love of living pure, unadulterated country life and in solitude, nature, hunting, fishing, hiking and football and a quiet contempt for anything else. Where a whisper is a yell, Mallettbarrites are a hard, difficult people who live simply and deliberately.  After all, "Mallettbarr Plainess", the term often used to describe the reclusive natur...

Things Only People From Altamasstachia Understand

Image
It may be true that each state is unique in their own way, but Altamasstachia truly isn't like all the other states in America! Here in the Bayflower State, we Altamasstachians take extreme pride in our ways of life, our traditions and our oddities and quirks that define our homeland as we continue to embrace our future together, from Olympia to San Gerardo Bravo to Heston to St. Ann to Foxbridge and to New Scotland. While there's always something for everyone in Altamasstachia whether you're north or south of the Clapton Line, there's always going to be our own unique eccentricities only we Bayflower folk can understand. Altamasstachians Measure Travel In Counties.   Lee County is just one of Altamasstachia's seemingly endless counties. And trust us, each county has something for everyone. With the possible exception of Midway County. You may as well get used to seeing lots of these signs travelling on the road in this state. Altamasstachia has 550 counties, which ...
