# Groups: The Banana Republic BBS

A Rare Specimen from the country of New Zealand, the Banana Republic BBS lived from the late 80's to the Early 90's, where El Presidente encouraged his users to write all sorts of entertaining files, mostly fiction, but with some computer-oriented and even illegal topics thrown in.
