Popular Republic of Corinthians

In 2010 the Brazilian soccer team Corinthians marked the 100 Year anniversary of their establishment. To celebrate, Nike — the team sponsor — founded a new nation: “The Popular Republic of Corinthians”. This new nation started life with 30 million-plus citizens — every passionate Corinthians fan — and quickly had everything any self-respecting nation needs: documents, legislation, currency, a flag, and even a president (Lula, the President of Brazil at the time of the campaign)!

Check out the video-case of the campaign:
