Also, as a person that has been labeled "colorblind", I have always been suspicious that indigo is just a fake color made up by Big Color to make more money off of rainbows. I keep telling people: it's a pigment of your imagination.

That one is more or less true. Light, (and by extension Rainbows) was arbitrarily cut up into 7 colors for religious purposes.

But Finland is a myth. Completely made up as a shelter for all sorts of financial and political ne'er-do-wells.

In Italy we have a whole (albeit small) region that does not exist: Molise.

See also the Australia is mythical conspiracy.

Australia doesn’t exist! And other bizarre geographic conspiracies that won’t go away

A theory denying the existence of the country is gaining ground. But the suggestion that countries and cities are mere figments of our imagination is a meme that dates back to the birth of the web

I blame that Frog and his cult who keeps ranting about "the Rainbow connection!"

edit: as for the above post. Australians are as real as Canadians...oh wait.

OzGate Update — Using Classic Fantasy as Conspiracy Worldbuilding

Latest entry in my OzGate series just went live:

The Wizard Was a Psy-Op

The premise: Oz exists, but popular media reshaped real events into harmless fantasy to suppress knowledge of dimensional travel.

This one explores Hollywood, illusion, and the idea of fiction acting as in-setting disinformation — something that could easily fuel a campaign mystery or modern fantasy RPG.

Always interested in how others remix public-domain settings into new lore frameworks.
