3 But by this time, most of the Spic colonies had become Spics in their own right,
4 aBeing Christian and Spanish-speaking and cruel and vicious and intolerant and bloodthirsty,
5 Though shorter physically.
6 In this way, over a long period of time, the New World acquired a whole bunch of new bnations, including Mexico and Nicaragua and El Salvador and Honduras and Costa Rica and Venezuela and Colombia and Argentina and Bolivia and Uruguay and Paraguay and Ecuador and Chile and Peru.
7 cBut blessed as they were with a Spanish cultural heritage, all these nations also found it difficult to make history in any lasting way,
8 And so they made destancias instead and took a lot of esiestas and had fgauchos and gcorrida de toros and saved the souls of the masses by keeping them dirt-poor.
9 hIn short, they spent a couple of centuries waiting for the mother country to show them what to do next.
CHAPTER 131 The Spic Decline and Fall was not nearly as funny as the Roman Decline and Fall,
2 At least as far as we know,
3 iSince not much was ever written about it.
4 In fact, all that we know for sure is the parts of the Decline and Fall that other nations wrote about,
5 Like the conquest of Spain by Napoleon Bonaparte,

6 Who was jsort of French and had a brother named Joseph who thought he'd like to be king of Spain.
7 So Napoleon put Joseph on the throne of Spain, where he stayed until Napoleon retired at Waterloo and the rest of the nations of Europe rescued the Spics,
8 Which immediately fell silent once again, spending all their time on siestas and keeping the masses dirt-poor.
9 Occasionally they resurfaced to try their hand at culture.
10 They had a painter called kEl Greco,
11 Which means The Greek,
12 And explains how he got away with it.
13 They had a songwriter, who wrote "Lady of Spain,"
14 Unless somebody else did.
15 And that was about it for Spic culture.
CHAPTER 141 Eventually, though, lhistory started to happen again in Spain,
2 In a small way,
3 mWhen a fascist named nFranco decided to dispense with the king and omake the trains run on time.
4 This caused good people the world over to discover the plight of Spain's oppressed masses,
5 And pwrite about it in books and journals and newspapers in a lot of countries outside Spain,
6 Which is the only way that anything ever gets written about Spain.
7 Naturally, when they found out that history was happening in Spain, qgood people from all over rushed in to help save the Spanish masses from Franco,
