What is Banana Republic?
1.
I remember the days when Banana Republic meant a country in Central America
Now its a clothing store that sells really nice clothes
"I'm going to Banana Republic to buy some clothes."
"Isn't that a little far just to go shopping...?"

Guatemala is said to have been the original Banana Republic.

a small stereotypical Central American country dominated by foreign companies (from the fact that such countries were typically controlled by the United Fruit Company and grew bananas)
That country will always be nothing more than just another banana republic.
