Looking at the old comics the italy brothers really glowed up x)

They really did.

Are you going to do something on N. and S. Italy’s crappy relationship? Because they actually don’t get along at all. Romano tells Veneciano he hates him all the time. He leaves to America just to get away from him because he can’t stand him that much. People mostly blame Romano but it seems like it’s both of their faults they don’t get along? With Veneciano not being to say anything nice about him or even make an attempt to help him during the industrial revolution.

I’ve sort of touched on this, but I think it’s time I cover
this more in depth. He doesn’t tell Veneziano that he hates him all the time, but he does often insult and tell Veneziano
how stupid/ annoying he is.

Post coming up tonight!

Exactly as read.

He goes hunting a lot. I was getting out of his truck to enter his house and he casually comes up to me, all proud like a toddler, and holds up a dead pigeon in his hand. I scream and hop back into the truck, slamming and bolting the door. MF then proceeds to spread the pigeon’s wings and coo about how pretty it was.

But “smh” according to him, “I’m such a princess/ city girl.”

Thank you so much and okie <333

I’m enjoying him a lot. I’ve never had someone who I can roast one minute and compliment and be sweet to the next. It is pretty awesome.

Guysssss you know what I want more of? Nations doing celebrity things? I mean, it’s canon that Alfred is in Amazon commercials so what else can nations do??

They could be in commercials or make cameos in music videos and movies? How fun is that?

Alfred 100% will be in an Alexa commercial like ‘Alexa, reorder my American flag tank top’ and he’ll get it just in time for a barbecue only to have mustard spilled on it so he has to order a new one, using Alexa too?

Or Arthur making a background appearance in one of the Harry Potter movies and living his dreams? He gets to have his own fuckin wand oh my lord

And Laura(Belg) advertising Belgian chocolate over seas and recording the commercial in different languages cause she speaks so many????

What about Kiku voicing a background character in an anime or a cartoon? And getting to go behind the scenes to meet the animators and just kinda be a kid for a day?

Francis getting to be in a magazine for high end brands cause he’s not only a huge fan and wears that kind of stuff all the time but he also is just…Magazine material? You can BET that he’ll mail all of his friends a copy too oh jeez

Nations are people too and get excited over this kind of stuff!!! They’re used to being beheaded by their people and now? They get to do fun things!! 🙂 🙂

Did you mean…canon 😀 ?

Romano didn’t make the cut for the movie, so he and Prussia decided
to make one together (It didn’t work out, but it’s the thought that counts.)

America, days after Thanksgiving: Woo, I’m
stuffed!

England: That’s
great. When exactly are you going to get to that paperwork?

America: Yeah… imma
need 14 business days to recover from this food coma.

Honestly, I would like to, but like I’ve said before, I can’t guarantee anything. I stopped writing at a time where my home environment got too toxic and then having left it in April, I’ve detoxed and healed a lot.

At the same time, I’m at a very busy point in my life where I don’t have whole afternoons to write. It’s annoying but the way I write requires continuous hours where it all just pours out. I can’t write in fragmented sessions; it’s just not how my brain works. Still, I’d like to thank you for your interest. It means a lot ❤

What’s funny is that when I mock his name in a Quebecois accent, it sounds like Mat-hue lol.

Oh my god there are too many.

Instance 1:

Me: Dude.

Mathew: Did you just friendzone me?!

Me: ???

Instance 2:

Mathew: I looked you up on instagram.

Me: I set it up but haven’t used it yet.

Mathew: Yeah but this account called “Hetalia Homosexuals” reposted your content.

Me: …

Mathew: Are you hiding something from me?

Me: …

Instance 3:

Mathew: *drives me home and plays James Blunt*

Mathew: *makes direct eye-contact with me*

Me: *gets out of the car*

Mathew: Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend.

Instance 4:

Mathew: I missed you.

Me: Aw, thank you!

Mathew: No, you’re supposed to say I missed you too.

Me: Oh…sorry. I’m still not used to this.

Instance 5:

Mathew: My friend asked me to describe what you look like.

Me: What’d you say?

Mathew: A tiny little brown girl.

Me: I mean….accurate (but you didn’t have to put it that way geez).

Disclaimer: This
post will strictly explore Germany’s character in canon. It does not explore
nor make the Holy Rome = Germany assumption.

Misconception: He’s
gruff, mean, stand-offish, and curt to the point of being rude.

Reality: He’s
sweet and considerate but is very poor at expressing himself. He lacks
socialization skills and can also come off as too formal.

Germany’s main complex is that he comes off as angry to
others when he actually isn’t.

Source: Hetascanlations, World Stars Chapter 1.

Ex: He asks out
Italy for drinks after a training session, and Italy interprets him as being
angry.

Source: Hetarchive, Comic Diary 4.

Ex: He has trouble
smiling. The consequence of this is that others are afraid of his domineering appearance.

Source: Hetarchive, Christmas 2010 Event.

However, he’s able to smile when he’s drunk.

Source: Hetascanlations, World Stars Chapter 1.

Ex: He’s so poor
at socializing that he needs to rely on manuals for things such as friendship,
romance, and even how to smile.

Source: Hetascanlations, World Stars Chapter 7 + Hetarchive, Buon San Valentino Series (mentioned).

Ex: He absolutely
loves dogs.

Source: Volume 5.

Ex: He loves
baking, especially with his friends. He has an entire character song dedicated
to this, titled “Ich liebe…”

Source: Hetascanlatoins, World Stars Chapter 33.

Misconception: He
was a Nazi and rooted himself in the fascist cause.

Reality: It’s
complicated…

I know this sounds bad, but something I always want to
emphasize is the need for contextualization.

I’ll be upfront by saying that technically Germany was a
Nazi but superficially and through force. Addressing the second part, he did
not support the fascist regime at all.

Let’s unpack this.

For one thing, nations in the series are obligated to adhere
to their bosses’ orders.

Source: Hetascanlations, World Stars Chapter 97.

Ex: Germany is
sent all over as Hitler’s lapdog and seems to be used to being screamed at.

Source: Hetarchive, Hetare 4: Pact of Steel.

The series doesn’t explicitly name Hitler,
instead describing his as strange in a euphemistic manner; he’s also said to be suffering from boss troubles—remember that the
series’ satirical and comedic genre constrains what historical material it can
cover.

Source: Hetarchive, Hetare 5: Lietuvis.

Ex: Although
Finland is joking in the strip, it’s hinted that Hitler would have been capable
of imprisoning Germany should he have disobeyed his orders.

Source: Ibid.

Things get complicated when Germany is asked to annex
Austria. He vehemently opposes but is threatened into doing so. We then see him
holding up propaganda at a booth with Nazi insignia that promotes the annexation.

Source: The Austrian Anschluus + Comic Diary 7 (mentioned).

This anti-fascist narrative is further elaborated on when
Germany describes his daily life as torture and equates torture in a POW camp
to a mere mosquito bite. In other words, Germany’s daily life in Nazi Germany
isn’t glorified; it’s instead equated to a living hell for him. He’s respectively said to be tolerating his days through pain.

Source: Volume 1, Hetarchive, Hetare 5: Lietuvis.

Not only that, but Hetalia is also anti-war.

Ex: Germany is
shown reflecting on how miserable he is at war. He then later agrees to a
temporary truce with England on Christmas Eve, where the two play soccer.

Source: Volume 3.

For longer posts with more extensive evidence on how Hetalia
as a series is anti-war and anti-imperialist, please go here [x] [x] [x].

Misconception: He’s
so straight-laced that he can’t take a break.

Reality: He’s so
straight-laced that he schedules his breaks.

Ex: Germany
actually loves vacations and is more than capable of taking breaks.

Bonus facts:

The greatest hint of the Holy Rome = Germany connection lies
in the Buon San Valentino strips. Germany blacks out and appears to recollect a
fuzzy image of Chibitalia, suggesting that it might, in fact, be a repressed memory
of his.
