	McDonaldland - Uncyclopedia
		The Republic of McDonaldland was founded in 1972 by Ronald McDonald and George W. McCheese on a small island off the coast of the first McDonald's restaurant, a small island filled with junk food growing in the wild.
		At first, McDonaldland was a peaceful place, filled with restaurants of giant junk foods paid to clip french fries off of trees and pick hamburgers off of bushes, even though this is pretty useless if you have scissors of your own and you somehow found the way there.
		McDonaldland is well known for its extraordinary agriculture of junk food inhabiting the wild.

		McDonaldland was basically a world created by the collective hallucination of out of their fucking mind hippies, poets and other gouache artist fuckheads and used in McDonald’s marketing campaign through the 70’s and 80’s.
		McDonaldland consisted of a place where Ronald McDonald and psychotronic slacker friends like the Grimace and Mayor McCheese spent their days chasing Hamburglar and Captain Crook or harvesting hamburger patches or trimming down apple pie trees.
		The concepts of McDonaldland and Burger King Kingdom were such collage of acid trip binges and other incoherent non-sense that eventually both companies pulled the plug on both somewhere during the late 80’s.
