There is an interesting word in English and German: banana republic. Of course, the banana republic is not a country that voted with bananas. This word generally means some small countries with unstable regimes in Latin America. In the twentieth, some giant US companies started to cultivate fruits in those countries and output them to the US. By economic stress and corruption, those companies have a bigger influence on those countries, including supporting dictator and human rights violations.
Some European social media comments: these days, the US has become a banana republic itself. Does Chinese have this word?

Does Chinese have thisa word for this?
Or: "Does such a word exist in Chinese?" The original wasn't wrong, but this sounds better to me.
