The long-tailed '''[[gentoo penguin]]''' is a penguin species in the genus ''Pygoscelis'', most closely related to the [[Adélie penguin]] and the [[chinstrap penguin]]. The first scientific description was made in 1781 by Johann Reinhold Forster with a reference point of the Falkland Islands. They call in a variety of ways, but the most frequently heard is a loud trumpeting which is emitted with its head thrown back.
The '''[[Alliance Between Westarctica and Molossia|alliance between Westarctica and Molossia]]''' is [[Westarctica|Westarctica's]] oldest, and ranks among its most important and influential [[Foreign relations of Westarctica|diplomatic relations]].

The gentoo penguin is easily recognized by the wide white stripe extending like a bonnet across the top of its head and its bright orange-red bill. It has pale whitish-pink webbed feet and a fairly long tail - the most prominent tail of all penguins. Chicks have grey backs with white fronts. As the gentoo penguin waddles along on land, its tail sticks out behind, sweeping from side to side, hence the scientific name ''Pygoscelis'', which means "rump-tailed".

The alliance between Westarctica and Molossia is Westarctica's oldest, and ranks among its most important and influential diplomatic relations. Since 2005, President Kevin Baugh of Molossia has been an important ally and advisor to Grand Duke Travis, both in his role as Grand Duke of Westarctica and during his time as the King of Calsahara, prior to its 2017 annexation and rebirth as a colony of Westarctica.
