PruCan isn’t technically crack. They’ve interacted before, and what I’m
about to show you is what I believe started the whole ship. Yes, there’s a
place called New Prussia in Ontario, Canada, but what I’m looking for is canon information.

You have to do a lot of digging, back into the prehistoric days of the
fandom. Nevertheless, the 2009 April Fools’ Event is likely where the ship
gained traction. Don’t get me wrong either. Nothing in here is romantic, but I can still nevertheless understand the reasoning behind the formation of the ship.

 In this event, we get to explore some posts on Prussia’s blog.

Canada gives Prussia pancakes for free.

Prussia states his love for them, and even goes so far as to grant
Canada with an “Ore-sama” honor award. Ore-sama is basically an arrogant way of
saying “me” in Japanese.

Since Prussia thinks he’s “awesome,” referring to Canada as another
version of himself is quite an honor, especially given how narcissistic Prussia
can be. Cute, right?

I’m curious, why do people ship PruCan? I mean no disrespect by this as I know how it feels to have one of your ships shat on. To my knowledge, there has been very little canon interaction between them, so is this just one of those things where the fandom looked at characters and thought, “hey, they’d look cute together,” and it morphed from being a crack ship to an actual ship? Am I missing something? Once again, I mean no disrespect by this and I’m sorry if it comes across as being rude.

You’re not being rude, quite the opposite actually, so no
worries 😊 It didn’t come out of nowhere, and you
have to dig all the way to 2009 (pre-historic, I know) to find the possible reason for
its existence. I create a variant of this scene every time I write
the ship because it’s pretty cute.

Even though they haven’t interacted a lot like you said, I understand where people were coming from when they formed the ship.

Let’s just say it has to do with pancakes!
