Cuba

Cuba is an island-full-o'-commies located pretty much smack in the middle of the Caribbean. Cuba's president used to be Fidel Castro, this beardy guy whose corpse they wheeled around on a dolly in a kind of "Weekend at Bernie's" situation that lasted for several decades before someone finally noticed he was dead and his brother Raul (also deceased) stepped in. The United States has been trying real hard to pretend that Cuba doesn't exist ever since the JFK days, when a bunch of CIA dudes tried to start some shit and totally got bushwhacked on a beach somewhere. The country's motto is "Homeland or Death," but a more accurate one would probably be "Homeland, Death, or Florida If You're Lucky."
