Friendly reminder that APH America…

Was forced to learn about his immortality the hard way by watching his childhood friend grow old and die while he stayed young(you’d think Britain would’ve told him about nations not aging like humans).

Hates his own body but is a compulsive eater.

Represents to people/culture of the United States of America and not the government. He’s been shown to be unaware of the “policies” his bosses are responsible for and has been shown to be a victim of his own government at times. (And no, the jokes in the English dub don’t count as canon because they contradict the source material. Even if some are good meme material)

Is well aware of how hated he is by a lot of the world and envies his brother Canada because of how loved he is.

And because of this, after WW2, he considers Japan his only true friend that won’t leave him and will go out of his way for him to be happy whenever he visits.

Have a nice day!

PS, this can be called “why canon aph America is better than fanon” or “why I love this character(especially in the later seasons/manga)”.

Continuing with that au where the Nations are public figures. All the nations that participate (weather they make it to the finals or not) in euro vision attended the final show. And of course the nation hosting the event co-hosts with the other human hosts. Which would be pretty unfortunate for this years hosts having to deal with Sweden’s face. 

Germany

Name: Ludwig Beilschmidt House: Hufflepuff Age: 15 Year: 5th Blood Status: Pure-blood Hobbies: Studying, tutoring classmates and wizards chess Anything Extra: Ludwig was just as surprised as his older brother when he was but into Hufflepuff but it turned out to be just the place for him. He’s done nothing but thrive in this house. On his spare time when he’s not helping other students study he can be found in the library or helping a teacher with after class work. Ludwig is a prefect and used to be a chaser in his third year but he decided quidditch took too much time from studying.

Romano

Name: Lovino Vargas House: Slytherin Age: 14 Year: 4th Blood Status: Half-blood Patronus: Hummingbird Hobbies: Quidditch and Hexing students in the hall Anything Extra: Romano tries to distance himself from his unmotivated little brother. But the two can be seen mingling from time to time. Romano like causing trouble but is terrible at getting away with it so he spends a lot of his time in detention. But he’s really not a bad guy. He plays on the Slytherin quidditch team as a Seeker.

What exactly is France’s sexuality?

I don’t want to give any labels, not to mention that it’s not explicitly stated in canon. This character note is helpful in giving you a general idea, though.

“He’ll go for men and women of all ages, and even non-humans, as long as they’re beautiful.”

He also seems to have a preference for “macho men”, and makes a lot of references to “touching pecs.”

Misconception: He’s weak

Reality: Far from it. The man’s been through a lot, emotionally especially.

Ex: During a heated argument with America, he’s able to close the door on him. It’s hinted that Canada may have super strength, but he dismisses this.

Ex: He’s more than capable of standing up from himself if necessary. Even a pushover has their limits.

Admittedly, he does excuse a lot of Cuba’s hostile behaviour towards him. It’s only because Cuba mistakes him as America, though.

Ex: Canada’s emotional insecurity can easily be seen as a strength. It takes a lot out of a person to remain so generous and friendly, despite being historically ignored and neglected by those close to you.

Misconception: He and America hate each other.

Reality: While they may have had some extremely rough times together, they’ve done more than enough to make up for this.

Covering the progress of their relationship in more detail will require a whole series of posts, but these are the basics.

Despite growing up together, they argued a lot following America’s independence. Britain acted as the most prominent wedge between them. For some time before, they also couldn’t see eye-to-eye due to profound age differences.

Canada held resentment towards America for being selfish, reckless, and too imposing.

Ex: America actually pushed for Canada to gain his independence. This didn’t occur until quite a while later, obviously.

Ex: When Canada does get his independence, they reconcile for the better…after having another argument of course. Siblings will be siblings.

Although, as you’ll see soon, they still argue over the same things. Canada’s main tooth to pick with America is his egotism and boisterousness.

Ex: America knows little about Canada’s pop culture, meanwhile Canada knows everything about his.

Nonetheless, the two are still extremely close…

Ex: America helps Canada figure out his identity. Canada’s multiculturalism [in the strips only, of course] is inspired by America’s own diversity of cultures and ethnicities.

As such, Canada suddenly finds South Korea and China staying at his place. The East Coast of Canada, especially Vancouver, is where many East Asians immigrate to.

Ex: America is jealous of Canada’s natural ability to get along with everyone.

Ex: The two co-host an online cooking show together. Yes, it’s called “America’s Cooking Channel, but Canada is on there enough times to deserve the title of a co-host.

Misconception: France is his father.

Reality: France temporarily acted as a big brother figure to Canada before England took hold of his jurisdiction. As such, this would explain why Canada inherited France’s hair. It’s mere influence. They’re not blood-related.

We’ve already see with Hong Kong how one nation’s influence can impact the physical/ personality traits of another.

Ex: England’s influence on Hong Kong’s personality. England also cursed Hong Kong to have thick eyebrows like him.

Ex: Seychelles was originally supposed to have one thick eyebrow and one thin one to represent French and English influences on her nation’s culture.

Misconception: Canada’s invisible for no reason.

Reality: There’s a real historical reason for this. Being a dominion, Canada was often overshadowed by Britain.

For instance, in WW1, other than the occasional Canadian Red Ensign flag – which also had a Union Jack on it – Canadian troops fought under the Union Jack. In return, Britain absorbed much of the credit for the feats accomplished by Canadian soldiers.

Ex: America thinks that Canada hides in Britain’s shadow. He holds back from saying this out loud.

Later, Canada’s shown to recognize this on his own. 

Ex: Canada wanted to sign a treaty with America, however he was too scared to talk to America directly. He was worried that America wouldn’t be able to see him.

Bonus Facts:

He cried when Seychelles remembered him as being part of the G8.

He served in the French army at Waterloo.

Maple syrup is his fuel.

He smoked marijuana.

He once yelled at America for three hours straight, pointing out his faults. America cried afterwards. Predictably, this was quickly fixed with a burger.

He aged at a much slower rate than America.

Canada

Name: Matthew W. Jones House: Hufflepuff Age: 12 Year: 2 Blood Status: Muggle-born Patronus: Cow Hobbies: Herbology and quidditch Extras: The oldest twin and widely known for being the nicest twin. He loves quidditch just like his brother and plays as seeker for Hufflepuff.
