The Fast Food Land

In 876, there was a big surface that was connected together. But then, there was a big earthquake; the level of the earthquake was 20. The earthquake separated the land, also the people. Before the earthquake, Nick was the youngest son of the dictator, Blake (Mr. Blake) was the eldest and the tallest, Zack was the middle child and he is the shortest. The earthquake killed the dictator.
The land was separated to three pieces, one looked like French fries in a box, the other one looked like a chicken rib, and the last one looked like a hamburger. Zack was brought to the land of French fries, as the middle son of the dictator, he named it Lotteria. Mr. Blake was brought to the land of chicken and he named it KFC, stands for Kentucky Fried Chicken. As the youngest son, Nick named the hamburger land as McDonald.
Time passed, they became older and each of them was the leader of their land. Lotteria was very good at French fries, their food was French fries and their desert was also French fries, Lotteria has the best French fries on the world. KFC has the best chicken and McDonald has the best hamburger because it includes French fries and chicken. Each of the land has its own resources except for McDonald; it was the biggest land and the richest. Because of the land was too long at KFC, King Blake decided to let jerry, his servant and also his soldier to lead the South part of the KFC.
One day, there was a pirate named Peter, he was the captain of the Black Pearl. The pirate found the three islands and marked down the longitude and latitude, because his assistant Andy told him to, so next time he can capture the land. After the journey of the pirate, he gathered more men from his headquarter and prepared for the occupation. He disguised in the town and kidnapped Jerry the servant. Peter and Andy together, they fought the three lands. Because of the pirate, they brought the three brothers together.
