One cannot underestimate the influence of the term: Bananenrepublik is a derogatory term for countries where corruption and bribery prevail. The term dates back to small countries in the tropical regions of the Americas, which particularly rely on the export of bananas. The term was first used in 1907 in a novella by O. Henry in reference to Honduras, and strangely, it has persisted worldwide to this day.
