    What I’m getting out of all these replies is that Ohio is to the United States as Acre is to Brazil.

    … I wonder if every country has a place like this. Some god-forsaken part of the country that has nothing at all going for it and so people like to clown on it (for Acre the joke we do is “it doesn’t actually exist” and/or “it’s home to all sorts of cryptids and bizarre creatures”)

      Well in Germany people joke that Bielefeld doesn’t exist, so there’s that. I feel like there’s a lot of different themed places that exist in many countries though, like “the incest place” (Alabama in the US, Saarland in Germany)
