Sherylannia is a massive, devout nation, renowned for its stunning landscape. The Environment Act 2007 had a major influence on the fantastic horizons now seen throughout the country.
Contents
History
Sherylannia was uninhabited until 1950, when immigrants from an unknown land came and founded the country. The leader, a man named James Wilkinson named the country after his wife, Sherylanne Wilkinson, as a wedding present. The people cleared the land of violent animals, and began to build small towns by 1955. In 1980, the huge city of Ling Wong was built. In 2000, Wilkinson passed away. The country was wayward for five years, before the nation decided it needed a new leader. That leader was David Oneill, The First Cool Guy of Sherylannia. His reign was not long, and has since been succeeded by three men.
Geography
Sherylannia is situated west-central of The Spectrum, with its bordering neighbours being White-Rose, Oldham Road and Domas-Porada. Coincidentally, these people are all members of The Good Guys alliance. It is also neighboured with the now barren Ediroth, and Enthalpy Change across the Synaptic Gulf. Sherylannia shares a mountain range with Domas-Porada and White-Rose to its south. It is a vast desert land, with cities scattered around the country.
Politics
Before the death of David Oneill, Sherylannia took a backseat in political affairs, only rearing its head when an important matter came along. With the appointment of Robert Willis, Sherylannia looked to be taking a more active stance in political proceedings.
With the temporary appointment of Samuel L. Jackson, Sherylannia's political forecast is that "no sh*t will be taken", and Jackson will make sure that Sherylannia becomes a force in the Spectrum.
When Jackson retired, a game show was produced, and the end product was a new cool guy, that of Tobey Maguire. No-one is quite sure what to make of this, but Maguire promises to lead Sherylannia to greatness.
In September 2007, Maguire started up a team of superheroes, known as the Ex-Men. They will defend Sherylannia against daily and national crime. They are also up for bid by any countries interested. They consist of Maguire, Melissa Joan Hart, James Gandolfini, Ted Danson, Halle Berry and Tom Cruise.
Sherylannia's personal intelligence force, S.H.A.R.K (Sherylannian Home Alliance for the Retrieval of Knowledge) has been relatively underused in the past few years, and is only used in cases of extreme importance. The last time they were called into action was to find the man who killed Robert Willis.
Religion
Most Sherylannians practice the religion of Defylism or Zedem. Thousands of Sherylannian's make the pilgrimage to White-Rose every year, to visit each of The Seven Pantheons. A smaller percent of the population follow Vagism, created by Sean E. Moss, lead singer of the popular rock band, Vagina of the Bishop.
Culture
Sherylannia Entertainment Network provide most of the televisual entertainment in the region. They have the strongest line-ups, what with Monday nights being "Double Drama" nights. It begins with Protagonists at 9PM, and Knights of Justice at 10PM. Recently, a new hit show, Who Wants to Rule Sherylannia?, has become very very popular.
The televisual pleasures are the more accepted in Sherylannia, but there are a select few who enjoy the arts, which are plentiful in the country. Around almost every corner is an example of "art". This includes examples, such as graffiti.
Sherylannia has also entered into the first Spectrovision Song Contest. Sherylannia eventually finished fifth.
Sherylannia has a bustling film industry.
Sport
Sherylannia's main sport is football. It has it's own league (the Sherylannian Premier League), and arguably one of the best teams in the Spectrum, the Ling Wong Pandas.
Sherylannia's national team is usually invited to the Spectrum Cup, but suffered from poor performance in 2006, and went out in the group stage. The manager has vowed to do better this time. The country also put in a bid to host, but it was decided that Dhatsun would have the honour, as he was the victor in the last one.
Sherylannia is also a part of the Spectrum Football Association.
