Location

Guacazole is a small principality which lies off coast of Monaco. Like neighboring cities off the coast of France and Italy, it boasts impressive import and export capability.

The principality is known for its rare breed of avocado, which is considered a national treasure and as such its cuttings are highly guarded. In 1975, an arborist from Berlin successfully made it to Tuscany with a seedling of the avocado tree before being apprehended by Guacazole's national guard. Due to being arrested in another country, there were issues about jurisdiction. However, lawyers from Guacazole successfully argued that Italy's own customs laws stressed that flora and fauna from other nations could only be brought in with the proper permit. The thief did not have such a permit, and so was successfully extradited to Guacazole. He had a speedy trial and was burned at the stake a week later. No known attempts at theft have happened since.

Its other export are ripe, juicy melons. They are delicious. You should try some.

Culture

Guacazole was heavily involved in the Italian Renaissance, becoming a haven for artists who were deemed too controversial for the times. It has sustained this sophistication, with much of the Lower Quarter being art studios, colleges, museums, and galleries.

Guacazole women were also involved in the Renaissance - revered for their contributions to both the arts and sciences. Due to its celebration and focus on the Renaissance, its women are thought of as more attractive if they have Rubenesque figures. Local old wives tales suggest that the more voluptuous the woman is, the more passionate she is capable of being.

Government

Guacazole has a Prime Minister named Vincenzo. He has attained notariety for demanding he be referred to as Vinnie, even during important affairs of state.

Other

It should be noted that Guacazole is imaginary.
