the banter is so well done

the way they just grab at each other, no hesitation is [chef's kiss]

this one broke me... I am inconsolable once again

the anger, the desperation, the longing... oh, the longing

the beautiful way the author described this cruel role they have in life, where they are not human and aren't condemned to keeping up appearances but doing so because their power holds greater than anything else, even their love...

The genocide of Indigenous exposed. This is the comparison of regions and casualties per capita.

crawls in on my hands and knees indchu is so everything to me. it’s so tragic romance, it has so many themes that touch on colonialism, agency, fate, power etc etc. They’re friends to enemies to friends to enemies and back again and one of the things that drives me really insane was how England used India to grow opium to poison China and deployed Indian soldiers to fight for the British against the Chinese in the Opium wars, but simultaneously, that long history of anti colonialism and pan asian collaboration between Indian and Chinese scholars during the 20th century before independence finally, finally came and the promise of a new world order and the Non aligned movement they could enjoy *together*, before 1962 happened and that hope of what they had before, before the europeans and the modern era, crumbled to dust. i’m so normal about then

homie, you managed to fill my heart with joy, sadness, dread, joy again, and agony and I thank you for it. their history is so unmatched by anything I've ever heard of.

oh to picture their closeness before colonialism, when it was just them two.

OH, to think of how they have lived so near one another longer than any other personification could, and to have it all change in such a short amount of time, that beautiful romance now just a husk of what it once was... and everyone walks by them not having a clue... it's only a pain and sadness only they understand, only they experience... I think I need a break

roma, roma de mi vida, roma, roma de mi amoooor

himaruya really named the new comic run "World Stars Gangsta" and yall aren't clowning him enough for it

Hello! Really love your content so far and it makes me so incredibly happy seeing more people reimagining Alfred and Matthew as nonwhite compared to it being controversial 8years ago.

Ever since I joined the fandom I always had the (at the time) unpopular opinion that the NA bros were from mixed heritages (White/Indigenous), which as an American non-white Latino with Indigenous roots made the most sense to me especially considering that even in the manga they don't really represent the government, but the people themselves and both countries (especially the US) are so diverse it absolutely baffled me that they were just plain white boys. I always imagined them being mixed, but never quite fitting in with either groups.

I am sorry if I overstep on this next bit, please feel free to correct me on anything I say, I've just had a long time to think about this and how other countries would react, which is gonna put England/France into a bad light but...they were straight up horrific to the Natives. Even France.

I know you mentioned how in Hetalia, the personifications get along with their overseers/colonizers and that they wouldn't be okay with this, and I think I may have to *slightly* disagree.

I think when it comes to Nations and how they view their fellow personifications, how they look won't matter as much compared to how they act or culture wise. I can see that while the two heavily resemble Native features, when they were taken in by their colonizers they were raised to hold to those same European values that still do plague the country today. I can imagine Arthur making sure that Alfred ignores his Indigenous roots and that he's raised as a proper British colony, speaking and writing in English only, being raised as a proper Christian etc. Forced to assimilate, which has been done to so many people that come from different cultures from the time America was colonized to even now in some places. They may not look completely white, but by god will he makes sure they act like they do.

I don't think he would have ever been okay with his people being killed, tortured, having their cultures and languages erased or even enslaved, because he does not represent the cruel ideas the government has, but the people itself...which also do include the people that *ARE* okay with this. A constant battle Alfred has to deal with, which ends up with him making not the best choices.

Things aren't perfect even today, there's still so many issues that's happening where Indigenous folks are still fighting for basic rights to water, working roads, etc. But at the current time, more Americans these days (especially the much younger generations that were taught/look up about the atrocities that our government has committed, especially now that the Native voices have platforms to speak on), are much more aware. I see the brothers trying to reclaim their roots, and start what will be centuries long reparations on what their people have done to the Indigenous community. Which honestly, reconnecting with cultures after being forced to assimilate to American culture is something big thats happening here all across the United States with Latino-Americans embracing their heritage, African-Americans who were descendents of those stolen from their homeland reconnecting with their culture, Indigenous people bringing their languages and foods back to light.

It's honestly just a very difficult journey I think they would have as they have to deal with Nationhood, but forgetting who they came from and having to give themselves up to a certain group. Again, never fitting in completely with one or the other.

Again, I'm so incredibly sorry if this is overstepping in anyway or if some things don't make sense. It's such a complicated subject that really can't be summed up super easily and I did want to go longer but I felt like this was long enough already @_@

Firstly, you are not overstepping in the slightest! I am legitimately so content and kind of misty-eyed to see so many other native fans of the show both interact within the fandom and give their own interpretation on both canon and OC characters. It was never this wholesome and community-oriented when I first joined the fandom and I'm glad I stuck around to see the tide change.

Secondly, your interpretation of France and England's involvement in Canada and America's assimilation is... very accurate, and while it's something I've fought about with myself in my plotting of Alfred's life (because I don't want to hate them lol), they most definitely did have a hand in his disconnection. However, as much as I agree they are influenced by both their natives and settlers, I do think they very much hold their own reservations and opinions on the social climate around them as any individual human being would.

While American society and most American presidents were anti-indigenous and pro-slavery, there were also vigilant indigenous activists and abolitionists; there were men and women who defended and engrained themselves with native communities and there were men and women who fought mercilessly to free enslaved people. I believe Alfred was one of those people. Alfred noticed the wrong within the society around him and despised it-- but alongside his overseers and the people surrounding him, his thought process was in the minority.

I don't see Alfred participating in the genocide, assimilation, or enslavement of indigenous or Black people-- and it is not because I wish to sanitize this true history, but because I earnestly do not see Alfred being so cruel (as he was someone who also thought himself a better person than his brutal fatherly figure). I do think he did try to feel indifferent most of the time to... well, assimilate, but I also like to think he was infuriated, enraged, while at the same time having convictions on where his help is best suited as a native man with the privileges and appearance of a white man (I hc that he very consciously slaughtered slave-owners and triple k members, especially during the civil war, but I realize that may be a heavy hc to have).

I appreciate you bringing up the increase of younger folks in America beginning their decolonization/reconnection journeys because that is absolutely what I feel Al and Matt are going through actively, but I like to think they began their reconnection journey much earlier, during the rise of AIM in the 1970s. I see them being the biggest activists for all their native communities and they help in every possible way they can. Not only because they want to reconnect and amend their mistakes, but because they altruistically care for their people.

Their hobbies absolutely include remodeling the homes of elders and delivering food to them. They are very much for the landback movement and will call out anti-indigenous sentiment without hesitation. I also think Alfred separates himself from his governmental supervisors in current day and will challenge them now compared to when he stayed relatively compliant as a young nation.

I still have SO MANY theories about Alfred and Matt's origins and experiences with assimilation that I am working out, but I want to carefully plot it all out so as to not trivialize legitimate indigenous trauma, especially as a reconnector. All I can say is that if the land I stand on had a personification, it would be an indigenous being, no question.

hot fucking take here but I think we should all stop drawing Prussia and Germany (or any Axis member for that matter) in WW2/Nazi uniforms and stop supporting people who do :)

I could just imagine either ame or rus drinking with both of them and just solemnly saying, "nobody thinks we should be together because of our history. maybe they're right," and both china and india start laughing.

they're just like "please! remember when you tried killing me with a modak tray after I traded your 20 purebreds for ten metres of golden silk?" and they're just laughing and reminiscing while the other two watch in shock and awe

the american urge for state fair and powwow food has me in a chokehold

i am of the intense opinion that none of the nations are good people. i mean this in the most sincere way; they're manipulative, they're assholes, they're cold, cruel and heartless and every label in between. they're not outright, evil villain llike bad people but in a more subtle way, the same way they could look at cruelty and injustice and look the other way. they are very much enablers in a sense. what i do think is that they weren't this way to begin with. perhaps if the world had been kinder to them then maybe they would have been kinder to the world. honestly, i dont even think they are trying to be bad people. they're just fucking tired.

nations as greedy selfish beings....nations as beings that survive off the offerings and worship of the humans... longing 4 older times when they were honoured the right way.... nowadays money does the job decently for the transactional nature of the exchange between being like nations and the humans but they still crave the energy in sacrifice and worship and feasting.....

I truly wonder if white fans are even capable of understanding how hard it is just being in a fandom space when you're not white. How alienated you feel every other day. How often you're told "it's not that big a deal" or "it's just a fantasy game get over it" or "it doesn't matter" or "go save the rainforest instead of crying over a game" or etc. etc. etc. to the point where you yourself start to question if there's something wrong with you... that it's your fault for being hurt all the time. Because it's never just about one racist mod, or one piece of whitewashed art, or one offensive post... it's all of it. Together. All the time. It's so fucking exhausting and it's why POC quit fandom spaces a lot.

te pareces tanto a mi

russia, america, and tchaikovsky are greatly intertwined. get this-- piano concerto no. 1 (the same composition that would later be played at the tchaikovsky piano competition in 1958 by van cliburn) would first debut in BOSTON.

I imagine they were both in attendance for the debut and it greatly impacted them. not only because it's tchaikovsky, but because they were secretly courting.

this could explain why they reacted so passionately to van cliburn at the moscow observatory.

rusame fiends... I have just found out that tchaikovsky performed at the inauguration of carnegie hall in 1891

i hate when americans get asked about the israeli/palestinian conflict and they say “well it’s not really my place to have an opinion” our country literally funds genocide against the palestinian people in the name of “defense” it absolutely is our business, we should be as mad as we can as loudly as possible.
