In the year of 2009, Christine Weston Chandler, as creator of the Webcomic Sonichu, had a significant hatedom, and you would rarely meet somebody who was trying to help her or change her behavior. One of those rare people was Vivian Gee, who was trying to help Christine for a very long time... before giving up. note One of her attempts to make Christine realize how bad and harmful her behavior is was writing a micro-novel and giving it to her. A Girl Who Brought Down the World was that novel.
The story focuses on Kid and her older sister, Vivian, as well as other people living in a world ruled by President Christopher Winnfield Vega. Almost all the cast is made from poorly-masked copies of people who somehow get in a conflict with Christine.

- Big Bad: Christopher Winnfield Vega, president of America. Until Hendrix is revealed.

- Crapsack World: This is a world where a man like Christopher can become the president...and everything's ruled by Internet trolls. Even God admitted this world was His failure.
- Deconstruction: Of Sonichu. It takes the premise of Christine's comics-a world where she's the highest authority and can do anything she wants-and shows how her real-life emotional issues would cause it to go wrong.
- Digital Piracy Is Evil: Why Christopher nuked Taiwan.
- Disproportionate Retribution: Christopher nuked Taiwan for supporting piracy, South Korea for supporting Taiwan, and Poland for stealing jobs from Britain. He tried to nuke Brazil after their president called him on his behavior, but nuked Canada instead.

- Dying Alone: Christopher in the rewritten timeline.
- For the Evulz: Hendrix and his organization's main motivation.

disturbing when you realize that their "public" counterparts are cousins, and that both are in Real Life separate characters played by the same troll. - Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?: Christopher says this so much it might make one think he’s Armoured Closet Gay.

- Hurricane of Euphemisms: Lampshaded."You just do it for the hanky-panky, the horizontal tango, hitting the hay, the wango tango, the bonus round of love, rocking the room, tasting the heavens, you know.""Jesus, Christopher. You really have no experience at all with any type of relationship with any woman, do you? I mean, no one uses those euphemisms, I haven’t even heard of half of those."
- Jerkass God: God himself, who created Christopher as a drunken joke. Even so, it was nice of him to rewrite the timeline so none of this ever happened.
- Knight Templar: Christopher crusades against gays, blacks, "terrorists", and other "enemies to the country."
