Vader, Washington
Vader is a city in Lewis County, Washington, United States. The population was 629 at the 2020 census. History Vader was originally named Little Falls and incorporated on January 12, 1906. The name was changed to Sopenah by the Northern Pacific Railway because there was already a Little Falls on their rail lines, Little Falls, Minnesota. The townspeople were unsatisfied with the new name and petitioned the Washington State Legislature to change it to Toronto. A dispute then arose which was resolved by a compromise agreement to name the town after a German resident (and Civil War veteran) named Martin Vader. The town name was changed to Vader by the legislature on March 25, 1913. Vader later moved to Florida. More recently, a motion was made to change the name back to its original name, Little Falls.

It was published in ''Het Parool'' from November 12, 1968 until 1987 and Van Straaten's most famous and popular work. Concept ''Vader & Zoon'' centers around a conservative, square father and the generation gap between him and his progressive, intellectual, socially conscious young son. It captured the zeitgeist of the late 1960s and early 1970s and poked fun at many political and social themes. Apart from the father and son there were no notable recurring characters.
