I had a dream, recently.
I sailed across a vast ocean to a foreign land. At the blessed sight of shore, we disembarked. I held my flag up high in triumph. I dug the flagpole deep into the earth, claiming the new territory for the glory of the Americas.
An older man in a grey suit and with an English accent came forward.
"Aye, Aye! You can't claim us... We live here! Scores of us!"
Obviously, they were not a civilized lot, so I continued.
"From this point forward, your people shall be called 'Native British Islanders.'"
An unruly lot, they were. They had this archaic system of government, where the tribal elders would walk into a cave through one of a set of wooden doors to show their political beliefs.
I think they worshiped an ent with a tiara on it. I couldn't tell with all the vines holding it steadfastly to the throne.
I only have to say that I was terribly amused when I awoke.
