Money Hunny

Anyways this one is a little far out there but it’s for a moodboard for this idea I had that England is a vampire who turns America to a vampire to preserve her innocence, but in reality misery loves company and as the story goes on; England feels so connected to America that he think they should share each other’s misery regardless of what America thinks.

Starting with non nation representatives. I never liked the idea of states/provinces all existing because that’s just too many damn people! Especially if they’re meant to be children as they’re often portrayed to be.

Now the originals way I had it was that regions took the place of states but I decided if states/provinces don’t exist at all however, territories will and the catch with territories is that they can only exist as territories or countries, if they become a state or province; they will die.

All territories are the children original country/kingdom, not the county/kingdom that makes them a territory, sometimes they’re born as a replacement to the original country/kingdom if the country/kingdom is taken over by another country/kingdom and other times they’re just the children of a country/kingdom when a territory is made.

I’m using Alaska and Hawaii as examples for this and I’ll talk a bit about them more later, but for example; Alaska is the child of America and Russia, born as the territory of Alaska. However Hawaii is the replacement for the kingdom of Hawaii, born when the US colonized the kingdom and turned it into a territory, but they’re both territories.

I don’t have any real reason for this; it’s vibe based.

A bit more about territories and America specifically; she has one child, previously two, and that child is DC. America has other territories but they were all born the way Hawaii was and has no real relations to America.

DC is technically not a territory but I don’t see any reason why it can’t work in the same realm, so long as it’s not a state really.

I had to think about DC because DC wasn’t born between two nations or came from any other, it’s a place in America only so I decided for DC to be born in that asexual, replacement birth, that female nations have when a new country/kingdom/whatever is going to replace them, and this would signal that America is about to die but sometimes female nations can have replacements then live for decades.

Britannia/Albion (as I like to call her) is an example to this; she had four children, England being one of them, and England ended up replacing her only decades after she had him. though England is a little special because he’s a replacement baby born between two countries, Rome and Albion, which rarely happens but it can.

Anyways, DC will eventually replace America so long as DC does not become a state. And I think if DC becomes a state then America will just have another replacement baby because the way replacement work is that it can’t actually be stopped. I’m using England as an example again but England had a daughter named Wessex, Wessex was meant to to replace him but he killed Wessex and became Wessex instead of being replaced but that does not mean he is safe from being replaced or another representative being born to take his spot again.

I do want to write about that a bit as DC was born in 1790, during the early years of the US so i image it was very disparaging for America to have a son that would replace her just as she starting out as her own nation especially with how rare female nations are and how often they would die. I suppose she grows away from the fear and hatred to accept that one day DC will replace and copes with it all by using the idea that it’s better for her son, who only she had, to replace her than anything else.

This is longer than I thought, but whatever. Onto Alaska and Hawaii.

He was born in 1867 and died in 1959 and as I said, Alaska was the child of Russia and America. I like the idea of Alaska being the ‘I don’t want a divorce, let’s have a baby’ territory for rusame even though historically it may not work the best however Alaska and his death was 100% the beginning of the end for rusame. As I see their relationship not turning bitter and antagonistic until the early 60s when they gave up on trying to keep the politics out of their relationship and I believe the bitterness started once Alaska died because how are you going to be with someone you’re not actually supposed to be with after your son died for political reasons centered around the two of you? I think they both blame each other for Alaska.

And for Hawaii; she died around the same time as Alaska but America does not care, figures. America did not consider Hawaii a child of hers, not even after ww2, and Hawaii was kept in care by a nanny and the White House while America ran around with DC and Alaska. America did feel some guilt about how little she cared for Hawaii and she knew she would not mourn her the same way she will mourn Alaska and she abandoned the territory and all her other territories the same way she was abandoned as a colony but the guilt went away pretty fast, she was in the midst of a Cold War.

I don’t have that much to say on pregnancies for nations; I think I said something before about the length of pregnancy for representatives being different, longer or shorter, I can’t remember but I’m not here to refute whatever I said before. However I will add. Female nations have periods and they have menopause too though it works differently.

Females nations can have two types of children and I’ll call the first type pre-menopausal; it’s when they’re in the age range that human women are when they’re pre-menopausal, from ages 12 - 52, female nations get their periods and can have children. The children they have that come out around this age will be normal human babies and female nations can have them with human and other representatives, the pregnancy is standard as is the childbirth and the aging for the child. Once a female representative is past 52 they stop getting their periods and while they can still have children with humans and representatives; the children that will be born during this time will be strange. They will need blood to survive instead of milk because representative babies drink blood instead of milk yet these half babies don’t have the teeth same to bite with that representative babies are born with, and often the half representative babies are left in the care of their non representative parent who obviously won’t think to give them blood. So these children more often than not don’t make it past infancy and if they do then they’ll just die at the typical age that humans do.

When a female representative passes the age that they are considered alive (100 and beyond) then the only children they can have will be representatives and this not speaking of replacements, all nations can have replacements no matter the time, but specifically about independent states/countries that share a land. I feel like this is a bit difficult to explain but here’s what I’m thinking.

States that are under a unified government: don’t exist because the unified government exists

States that are susceptible to a unified government but are not under its complete jurisdiction (territories and others): do exist but will die if they become fully unified.

States that are under its own jurisdiction yet share a land with other states: do exist and are the only kind of children female nations can have post-menopausal as one of those states will eventually become the unified government to replace them.

This is how I think Albion works, before the Roman; the British isle was ruled by separate kingdoms yet they all shared the land of Albion and shared the name, like a continent and so Albion was able to have children which represented those kingdoms and countries independently until the Romans came and she had her replacement who would eventually unify the land.

This idea came to because I was thinking a lot about the British isles and how that works especially with the U.K. because that was a headache to work out as I wanted all of the U.K. countries to be alive and related to each other but I also wanted England to become the U.K. which I felt didn’t work with each other as; if the U.K. countries lost their sovereignty to become apart of the kingdom then they shouldn’t exist. But here what I got.

This is another vibes based thing

Some countries/kingdoms/whatever can exist in a limbo state between a territory and a country when they merge under a kingdom but don’t exactly change. They have both the threat of death of becoming a state and being fully merged into another nation and the promise of becoming a country once more.

As the kingdoms slowly got incorporated into England and then became Great Britain then the U.K. ; Wales, Scotland and Ireland all lost the invincibility and invulnerability that nations have as they lost their sovereignty; so they’re only semi-immortal rather than fully immortal and England, as the representative of the U.K., has the ability to kill them. Though he is the only one who has that ability. They heal slower, need food and water more often, and age faster than nations do while they’re in this limbo of a nation and a territory. Ireland escaped this mess in 1921.

A representative losing their immortality as their nation loses power is something I always thought of as it was how I image Rome died; stabbed to death by a human. If a nation looses enough power they will be weak enough to be killed by anyone or anything a human could be killed by.

I went off the rails with this and forgot to mention that post-menopausal babies, the representative babies, have razor infant teeth which slowly dull out as they age and pregnancy post-menopausal is still pretty typical except they crave blood and raw meat more often, for their blood drinking babies.

This isn’t all too gender neutral or inclusive because I just can not come up with a way to give male nations all of this in a satisfying way; I’m really just about to say fuck it and mpreg or that for certain things, like in the case of the British isles, a representative is alway born female or maybe a male representative can do this all to a human female or female representative like if America needed DC to be born then he would impregnate a woman out of this pure need to, and the baby be born but as replacement baby which is kinda how I wrote Wessex and England to be. Wessex was the replacement for England but she was born from England and Gewisse with Gewisse dying after giving birth and I suppose England was meant to die too but he killed Wessex. And I like that story but I don’t know how well it’ll translate into a general way. I don’t know. I’ll come up with something soon enough.
