When it was Americas turn to host one of the world meetings, he had decided to hold it in Lincoln, Nebraska. Of course, he chose this location because he wanted to play a joke on the other nations. Of course, he got Prussia and Denmark in on the joke beforehand, so they all were doing it as a group. Before the meeting started, America made sure that everyone else except himself, Prussia, and Denmark were in the meeting room. Then, he handed out harpoons to each of them and they all walked into the meeting room.

"Good grief, what are you doing now?" England asked with an alarmed look as he spotted the three men walking into the room.

"We, my good sir, are going whale fishing!" America said as he pointed the harpoon towards England.

"Get that bloody thing out of my face!" England snapped.

"Oops, sorry." America said as he pointed the harpoon away from England.

"Why on earth are you going whale fishing? Germany asked Prussia with a frown.

"For the challenge of finding a whale in the middle of Nebraska of course!" Prussia said proudly.

As Prussia said this, some of the other countries started to look annoyed.

"Why on earth would you try to hurt such nice creatures?" Hungary asked angrily. "What did they ever do to you?"

"Nothing!" Denmark said. "And yet, here we are, hunting whales in Nebraska."

"How mean!" Spain said with a sad look.

By this point, some of the other nations had caught on to what was going on. Canada was chuckling in his seat and Russia was rolling his eyes.

"Aren't there laws against doing such things?" France asked. "Why should you be allowed to hurt such creatures of beauty?"

"Oh, it's totally illegal to hunt whales in Nebraska." America said with a casual shrug. As he said this, the other nations went silent in shock. America, although he was a goof ball, never blatantly broke the law.

"Oh god, he's hit a second rebellious stage." England groaned. "I'm not going to be responsible for this one."

"Yeah, I know right?" Denmark said as he tried to hold back his laughter. "It's awful how people hunt whales in Nebraska."

"Oh, don't worry, there aren't any whales nearby." Prussia said. "It's not like we're near the ocean or anything."

As Prussia said this, all of the nations suddenly realized what was going on.

"Oh, Nebraska is a land locked state." China said with a sudden look of understanding.

Denmark started roaring in laughter, and slowly sank to the floor as his legs were too weak to support him. Prussia merely stated, "Nah duh dummkopf."

"Ah yes, it's one of the strangest laws that my citizens came up with." America said with a smile. "Even I don't get them sometimes."

A/N: Hello and welcome to my new story, The Silliest laws in America. Inspired by my other story, The Strange Things about America. In Nebraska, it is illegal to go whale fishing. But that's kind of weird seeing as the state is nowhere near the ocean. And by nowhere near the ocean I mean RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE UNITED STATES!
