California, discovered in 1770 by Captain Cook is the largest of the island states. Originally lightly populated by Eskimos and Polynesian islanders, the state enjoyed a long period of uncontrolled immigration after it captured the nation's hearts as the scenic backdrop to the batlle of Waterloo. Napoleon's defeated troops were soundly routed by bands of Visigoths and Saxons, and California became a symbol of democratic destiny and intoxication.

The majority religion is New-Age Airy-Fairyism; principal exports are pins, postcards, marijuana, hand-held clocks, lima beans, pies, antelope recognition charts, ice picks, track lighting systems, tartan socks, and nose-hair grooming kits.
