Title: Localize for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

History:
======
On December 16, 1773 a group of forward-thinking individuals bravely boarded a docked boat in the Boston Harbor in what would become the first step of a long but successful fight against tyranny. These men bravely disguised themselves as the local natives, a group of people that had been and would continue to be persecuted, robbed and slaughtered in the name of whatever was convenient at the moment but I'm American and we're not good at dealing with shame so let's skip this part, okay?

Anyway, the men in the harbor smashed crates of tea and dumped them into the water. They did this because Americans refuse to be taxed without representation and also because the only thing we suck through our teeth is SpaghettiOs sauce and maybe a 64 oz Mountain Dew.

Later, these men would craft the most important document that modern Americans are willing to die for but never actually read: The Declaration of Independence. It's a little-known fact that the first revision of this document was a vulgar sketch of the King with the caption "U SUK!". The sketch and the caption wouldn't survive, but they lived on in spirit. Early Americans associated the letter U (from the caption) with King George and thus, tyranny. They decided to exorcise all unnecessary U's from the written language. The result would be that Americans could have favorite colors, but never favourite colours.
