Lindenau Effect Repeating occurrences of sighting historical figures, oftentimes in the less fun side of history, seen in the Weissersteiner city of Lindenau… Meinhard Frank, Stjepan Masic, Jakob Strasser, etc. (popularized by the internet) Popular culture, entertainment and the arts

The Lindenau Effect is a recurring internet phenomenon in which historical figure lookalikes, often times dictators and other figures viewed less favorably by the general public, is seen in the Weissersteiner city of Lindenau. The phenomenon first blew up in a chat forum in 2002, where an image of a lookalike of Gianlucian frankist leader Meinhard Frank was seen in Lindenau city subway, and as time goes on, more historical lookalikes were seen, such as Stjepan Masic (Karnetvorian Imperialist prime minister), Horace Soormann (Grandmaster of Transsuneria), Jakob Strasser (Weissersteiner fascist leader), and Loetviek I (Elbonian emperor), among others.
