Hello. I am Dyrland- or Signe Eriksdóttir if you prefer. America said I needed to ‘open up more’ and suggested creating a blog on this site.
As for my interests, hiking, archery, and crocheting are some of them.
You likely don’t know me, and that is fine. I will do my best to answer your questions.
If you are looking for my 2P, Astrid, her blog is @ask-2p-dyrland
…And if you’re curious about the micronation that appeared, his blog is @ask-elgland
(OOC section: Dyrland is a Hetalia OC for a fictional place. She is the elusive ‘sixth Nordic.’ General ask blog rules apply. Main blog is @lorelibrarianlizbit. EST timezone.)

General background: Dyrland, an island southeast of Greenland, was originally settled by Danish and Norwegian vikings. The subsequent attempts by France and Britain to take the land from Denmark as a colony were rather brutally thwarted by both Dyrlandic residents and Danish reinforcements.
In the early 1800s, a poor harvest season resulted in a devastating famine. Due to the strain on already limited resources caused by Danish and Norwegian forces that had stayed, Signe had thought it best to declare independence.
Her revolution, short but brutal, put a strain on her relationship with Norway and Denmark, a burned bridge yet to be restored.
After declaring independence, Dyrland was isolated, only accepting technology and trade from America starting in 1874 and since then has been more open.
Birthday: January 21
Fun(?) fact: Denmark’s genes only really appear when Signe is feeling especially agitated. Signe tries to keep her hair under control, but the tufts start popping up more the angrier she gets. Her hair used to be a bit more all over the place when she was a child nation.
Origins of the country name: I did a bit of digging and found what was pretty much an old Norse dictionary. I’m unsure if ‘dyr’ (beast) refers to animals/creatures or not, but at this point I can’t change it. There are two possible arguments:
Dyrland got its name so people would avoid going there (Iceland vs Greenland sort of situation)
Someone horribly misidentified local wildlife and it stuck.
Regarding her abilities: Despite being able to somewhat heal others, Signe cannot heal herself. Portal travel takes a toll, and she can typically only do so twice per day.

Remember how I was gonna confront dad and Swe? Well I did, and.. and it was just horrible.
Sweden was completely quiet through all of it, just staring with those glaring eyes. And dad… Dad and I got into a screaming match, he said so many horrible things, I said so many horrible things..
Now I’m staying over at Canada’s place. God, I’m sitting here like a little child, saying i don’t what to do..
You'll be okay at Canada's place. You'll be safe there. Give yourself some time to think. And give yourself some grace. You did what you needed to do. It'll be okay.
Don’t be sorry! I honestly expected it to end up the way it did.
Denmark is defensive, especially when it comes to the past and protecting himself. And I’m his daughter, so I’ve inherited some of those exact traits, and since neither of us wanted to back down, it just ended up with us on the brink of a full on physical fight.

the scots also outdrank boston. the pubs had to get emergency refill kegs. and the germans are singing every stereotypically american song immaculately while the japanese are overflowing on free refills
The free refills baffled me the first time as well. America may be… a bit annoying, but I cannot lie the restaurants his country has ensure people are well fed.

Of course. Leave it to Denmark to be a fool of a guardian figure. I’ve had my own… experiences with him. Staying with Canada for a bit is a good choice.

Wait, dad has been a dick to you too? God this keeps getting worse...
I'm confronting Sweden and Denmark today, not just about the trauma dumping, but about everything they've put me through, i suppose. I honestly don't know how it'll go, best case scenario they realise their mistakes, worst case scenario they get angry and defensive..
I'm so happy that Canada offered me to stay with him for a while, and i'm happy that so many people are helping me with this, i honestly never thought i'd get this much support.
I went into isolation after that- well, until America came along. I haven’t spoken to Denmark or Norway directly in a very long time, and I’m not keen on reaching out.
Still, let’s focus on you for now- you’re going into a high tension situation. If you ever start to feel like you’re in danger, aim for the eyes.
That makes sense.. do you view America as a friend? I think he’s pretty nice.
Oh, right. I don’t think I’ll be in danger, they’re my dad and uncle after all. They wouldn’t think of hurting me, right? But it’s good to know where to aim, thanks!
