Since this post was written, I have been appointed Zapponia's Ambassador by HRH Tony; the Zapponian flag was a winning entry and your Ambassador will be attending the dedication of "the flags" on November 5, 2009. That's three days from now!! Ordered my shoes from Zappos yesterday and expect them this afternoon. What? You thought I would represent Zapponia in old shoes??? Pleeeze! Will post a picture of my shoes when Mr. UPS brings them. By the way, our flag is displayed & framed proudly in your Ambassador's
home. Tune in this weekend for photos and commentary from the event.

Zapponia was created by two sisters in May 2009. The idea for the country originated with a trip to a company called Zappos.com. In fact the sisters invented a word, “zapponized”, which means loving the zappo culture.

The blue on our flag is the “wild blue yonder” and beyond because Zapponians believe that adventures can make positive changes in the universe. The funky yellow Z symbolizes not only Zapponia but also the ideas to create fun, a little weirdness and the concept of WOW! The supreme ruler is His Royal Highness Tony. Did you know that there are only two other countries in the world beginning with the letter Z?
Betcha said, “Wow!”
Zapponians are positive, enthusiastic, creative and fun. Those who complain are banished from Zapponia. Imagine a place where people look forward to Mondays when they will be at work. Imagine a place where the ruler of the country invites you to his palace whenever you are in town. Your thoughts on the country are requested each year and published in the Zapponian Register. Perhaps you think there is “no free lunch”; in Zapponia, lunch is free every day for everyone.
Zapponian happiness is increased daily by the opportunity to choose from millions of shoes that will add WOW! to your life. For more information contact: zapposisters@ymail.com
****** This was a winning entry in a flag design contest. The country had to be created and then a flag designed. Zapponia was chosen and will be immortalized in a artistic rendition in the town of Waynesville, North Carolina
