Dark Matter of the English Language—the unwords

Words are easy, like the wind;
Faithful friends are hard to find.
—William Shakespeare

uncountries

The uncountries are places that don't exist, but perhaps should. If you're starting your own country or are hoping to secede from your current employer (here's looking at you States of the US), you might find this list useful.

The list of uncountries is generated by training on list of 257 countries and territories.

Here's my bucket list of where I'm going next:

• Conchar and Pobacia
• Hzuuland
• New Kain
• Rabibus and Megee Islands
• Sentip and Sitina
• Sinistan
• Tuskia
• Urzenia
• Vontila

Explore the land of Neradia and meet the snowflake named Arenh Jerrus of Bosmen in the wintertime tale In Silico Flurries: Computing the world of snow in Scientific American's SA Visual story about beauty, imagination and machine learning. A collaboration with Jake Lever.

I use unwords generated here to name places and tube stations in Neradia, which is one of the uncountries.

And below are uncountries that are composed of compound words. The neural network doesn't always do a good job in capitalization.

Here are uncountries with suffixes common in country names.
