Misconception: Finland has a sweet, child-like appearance, so he must be weak.
Reality: Finland’s a warrior, and is noted to possess immense strength and resilience.
Ex: He’s so cold-resistant that General Winter has no effect on him. They even get along.
Ex: He’s visibly disappointed when Sweden calls off a battle during one of the Polish-Swedish wars. Not to mention that he was excited about engaging in the fight.
Ex: His patience isn’t endless. It’s said that if you poke him ten times, he’ll forgive you, but once you pester him enough, he’ll get you back ten times harder.
[There’s a slight difference in the translation, but it’s basically the same thing.]
Misconception: Like Iceland, Finland’s one of the tamer Nordics.
Reality: Finland’s actually quite strange.
Ex: He loves nature and enjoys being covered in grass.
Misconception: He’s Sweden’s wife = Sufin is canon.
Reality: He is not Sweden’s wife. Sufin is not canon.
Sweden calls Finland his wife, but Finland does not accept the label.
The two do share a close relationship though, enough for Finland to refer to Sweden as “Swe.”
Although, Finland is often just as perplexed by Sweden as the other nations are.
Misconception: He’s a jittery, nervous, and shy person as a result of being overshadowed by the other Nordics.
Reality: He’s soft-spoken, and quiet-voiced, but is far from quiet. In fact, he can be a very talkative and bubbly character at times. Nonetheless, he is said to be overshadowed by the other Nordics.
Ex: Finland jokes with Germany about his boss, despite the fact that the humour goes right over Germany’s head.
Ex: Finland’s noted to be a particularly nagging person.
Bonus Facts:
He lightly teases Iceland and once asked the latter to call him Big Brother.
He’s offered to act as a father figure to America.
He loves saunas, sweets, and alcohol. Bonus if it’s all combined together.
He’s had the hardest time out of all the Nordics, likely stemming from the fact that he’s historically been an underling to other nations.

NOW BOW TO THE CHRISTMAS KING
Canada’s attempts to stay neutral in family fights often end up frustrating America.
Name: Gilbert Beilschmidt House: Ravenclaw Age: 17 Year: 7th Blood Status: Pure-blood Patronus: Little Owl Hobbies: Reading, quidditch and Transfigurations Anything Extra: Gilbert is very unlike is brother in almost every way. But even so the two are usually together despite being two years apart and in separate houses. But like his brother Gilbert has been a prefect from his 5th to final year at school. He seems like he’s all fun and games but when he sees a younger student being picked on he doesn’t stand for it. But he’s known for being one of the more relaxed prefects, he usually won’t get you into trouble unless you really deserved it. Mostly because he has a need for everyone to like him. He is a beater and is Team captain of Ravenclaw.
Don’t be a sassy sue, Matthew.
Any random facts about Canada?
Well, considering that it’s in the process of being legalized here, it’s canon that he smokes pot.
before I was a Hetalia blog I actually had a Harry Potter blog. I figure hey, why not take my in depth Harry Potter knowledge and apply it to Hetalia. So here is my sorting of The Baltic Trio+Poland (Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia)
Poland- Ravenclaw: Now I thought about this one long and hard. I was shifting between Slytherin or Ravenclaw. But all and all I think Poland is a better fit for Ravenclaw. Poland always just sort of does his own thing. He wears what he wants and says what he wants. He really has no concern if someone is thinking poorly of him because he just doesn’t care. A Slytherin would care very much about the opinion of others but a Ravenclaw, now way! I think Poland would fit very well in Ravenclaw.
Lithuania- Hufflepuff: Now I can see him in all the houses to be completely honest with you, all except Ravenclaw, I don’t think he’d mesh well here. But all and all I placed him in Hufflepuff because during the soviet era he was always trying his best to keep the other soviets out of trouble with Russia. Then when he went to live with America he was happy to help out any way he could. Hufflepuffs are helpful and considerate, even when it’s not expected of them. They always think of others first. I did think about putting him in Gryffindor for a tiny second. But then I realized Hufflepuff is where he would be most comfortable.
Latvia- Ravenclaw: Yes the easy cop put would be Hufflepuff because he’s soft spoken but that’s not really what this sorting thing his about. Yes Latvia is afraid to speak his mind but nothing else about him would land him in Hufflepuff. He’s described as a hidden genius and at the same time he slacks off. This is so Ravenclaw. He’s also said to like reading poetry and romance novels. So we know he has a love for the arts. I think he’s very Ravenclaw.
Estonia- Slytherin: I wanted to put him in Ravenclaw but really I don’t think that’s entirely where he should go. Yes he’s said to be the smartest of the Baltic trio. But, he said that. That’s the kicker. See a Ravenclaw doesn’t go around telling you how smart they are, because they don’t care enough to brag about it. But a Slytherin would. He also says that he’s the luckiest of the three and manages to be in the right place at the right time to avoid Russia’s frustrations. Slytherins are very good at avoiding trouble. He’s also said to be very good with money. Another Slytherin trait. He’s very confidant in his knowledge and seems to give off the air that he’s the smartest person in the room, or at least thinks he is. This is what makes him a Slytherin.
