This post is for the Australians: I figured that since I'm in America I'll take a couple posts to get you up to speed on some American heroes you might not be as familiar with. Excited?
Johnny Appleseed was actually a real person (wikipedia him if you don't believe me. or want more information. or are bored.) named John Chapman. He traveled around a lot of the Midwest and planted apple trees. He is famous for wearing a pot on his head and being awfully friendly with small woodland creatures, though let's not wikipedia those parts too closely, shall we?
