Marshall Islands is [[Running Gag|another bunch of atolls and islands]] in Oceania. Their languages are English and Marshallese.
 
The islands were once a Spanish colony, until they sold it to Germany. In the [[World War I]], they lost it, like their other colonies, to the Japanese. After [[World War II]], their administration passed to United States, where they decided to make a few nuclear tests (actually, they even [[Nuke 'Em|destroyed]] some atolls with the explosions… [[Anvilicious|nukes are dangerous]]). The country declared independence in 1979.
 
Probably the most famous landmark of [[Useful Notes/Marshall Islands|Marshall Islands]] is the Bikini Atoll (the type of swimwear was named after it, not the other way around) and its bottom, where ''[[SpongebobSpongeBob SquarePants]]'' and company reside. [[Fridge Brilliance|Actually, considering the nuclear tests in the area, the sheer weirdness of Bikini Bottom should be a surprise to nobody]].
