Yeah, I think it was something like that. The whole thing was tongue-in-cheek and really entertaining. NZ was listed as a nation still loyal to the Queen (and therefore right-thinking), while IIRC they put AU as the "Disunited States of Autralia" or something like that (and there were a lot of "Disunited States of X" in there). Again, my memory is vague, but I think somewhere in the NZ portion they also had a Doctor Who reference.

Queen will be diaplaced. Well more likely her descendents. Treaty of Waitangi 2 we'll give the UK to the Maori.

This would be my guess.

Also its a brand name that isn't going to fly in 2022. So not even a nostalgia market to tap.
Those two are not mutually exclusive. A property having a name that’s out of fashion has nothing to do with whether people have nostalgia for that thing. There almost certainly is a nostalgia market to tap. WotC chooses not to tap it based on the name…except, you know, selling the line as PDFs on drivethrurpg.

Also, it’s really weird how focused this is. I live near three markets wholly owned and operated by people of Asian descent and all three have the word “oriental” in the sign. Several more nearby Asian markets are more specific, Vietnamese, Korean, and Japanese.
