Puns of the Navarone by Sardonicus Tweed

INSTRUCTIONS: Create a real world version of a pun, word play, or bad joke.

The Joke.
Once upon a time, in a kingdom across the sea, there was a kind and benevolent king, who all of his loyal subjects loved. But the king had many enemies, kingdoms who envied his nation's prosperity, and one day, they attacked. The king charged off into battle against them, and held them off valiantly, shattering his sword in the process. However, the king suffered a mortal wound, and died soon after. In honor of his bravery, the citizens took the shards of his sword, and reforged them into a salmon, the emblem of the country. The Salmon of Sovereignty, the called it. The Salmon passed between hands many a time, each ruler being harsher than the last. The country was prosperous, with its Gross Domestic Product nearly tripling, but the people suffered greatly, until one day, they rebelled, overthrowing the ruler, and instating another wise and benevolent king.

The Punchline.

This just goes to show that there will be prosperity, but not peace, if you rule with an iron fish.

There is the joke, and I shan't apologize for it.

Rule something with it and then be overthrown and I'll laugh.

LOL! Now if it was actually iron, I'd die.

I'm actually working towards that. Of course, I'd either have to buy one pre-made, or learn a few metalworking techniques. Like, any at all.

*SNERK* I love the fact that you actually created the fish. Extra points if you create the kingdom. :P
