Reference Game; Who can get all my references?

Throughout my Tenerian Information and New Tenerian News Network threads, I make references to several things. I was wondering who could get the most of my references. Post what I said and what it is a reference to.

As my Information thread expands, more references will be made. If you find a reference first, I will post what it was and who found it.

(I will be judging first to find a reference by the last time a post is edited. If you find another reference after posting, post it seperately or you may not get credit for the first one.)

You're close Banaria, but not right on.

Gadshack, Tenerland is influenced by many different cultures, including Greek, but I'm looking for something specific that I posted to reference something specific.

Ha, I did'nt know that. That's not a reference I made. That's actually a Toshikawan company that Tenerland imports games from. I don't know how to count that.

-Secretary of Peacekeeping- Ares Javelin- oversees wars Tenerland is involved in. His job is easy.


Ares, Greek God of War.

Javelin, Greek weapon.

Ares is the God of War and "Ares Javelin" is responsible for overseeing all Tenerland wars.

"Ares Javelin" could also be a reference to Homer's "Illiad"
