I have posted the potato girls I repeat! I have posted the potato girls!

Family: Spain, France, Portugal, Seborga, N.Italy and Ancient Rome

Nickname: Romana, Cat by (America), Gattina (by Spain), and bebé Kitty (by France)

By the way do not call her a cat.

Pet: None. She is too busy to own an animal and doesn’t like them. She does have the stray goat following her around.

Age: 23

Height: 5ft 4 inch

Weight: 127 lbs

Weapon: Seam rippers, Knitting needles, and Crochet hooks/needles. Sewing needles and bobby pins are the last resort

Special Abilities: A perfect and efficient worker drone. She’s able to get most things done in a day. If she really felt like it, she could take over Rome and run it herself.

The headstrong and competent older sister of Italy! Here is South Italy or more famously known Romana!

Meet Signora Caterina “Romana” Varges. It has always been an understatement that vast majority of culture and labor of Italy comes from the south as the North puts it out. Caterina is a member of the Axis that is doing her best to actually run the Fascist propaganda machine and has been doing labor for her all her sisters since the beginning. Honestly, she has been doing it for longer then that. She is overall a pleasant elder sister who has worked to the bone, showing excellent care and competence for domestic labor of all sorts. Her more devious face and perfect make up would make you question how in the dark she actually is though...such a flashy appearance for a woman in the dark.

Compared to Fabrizio and Lovino, It would be observant to say that for centuries Chiara (Nyo! Romana) and Caterina have truly been the backbone of italy for years. Just in different fonts. Chiara is a far better farmer than Lovino and is basically doing about 80% of the work-which isn’t a lot when you consider that he’s mostly spending his time being lazy and sleeping. Both Catarina and her do not like him-but they do really hate Fabrizo. Other than their own complicated issues with their mother figures in their life (Spain and Rome), a mutual dislike for Fabrizio and his high and mighty attitude towards them, combined with the general disgust for Nyos make him all the more detestable when they are basically doing most of his work for him. Caterina especially dislikes the fact that despite his well-known designs, he is not the one who does the sewing and crafting.

No. She is. Caterina has been the backbone of South Italy’s fashions coming to fruition since the very beginning and since before he understood the concept of what fashion design really was in the 1700s. Lovino may be the presentation and voice of people and Chiara is the ideal Southern Italian beauty and strong spirit- yet here is Fabrizio as the higher classes of Southern Italy and Caterina is beautiful and romantic- WORKER DRONE!? Oh yes. Chiara and Caterina have gotten along like cousins forced to do the hand-in-hand of work that no one wants to do. But where is Chiara has managed to be considered the beautiful idealized, Italian woman, Caterina is basically someone who is better off being admired from afar then up close. As her overly practical nature comes off as very cold and overly pragmatic, despite her more kind and soft-spoken attitude in comparison to Chiara. But this pragmatic view and hard-working personality has lead her to hone her craftsmanship far better than anybody in Europe or America.

Despite basically being raised by Ladies who might as well have been royalty itself in the form of Spain and Rome, Caterina has become an expert in all domestic related chores, but most especially clothing and jewelry making. Fabrizo maybe be a designer and the two may not like each other by nature, but they are the only duo among the Nyotalias and counterparts that can at least associate with each other. Even if the work is all done really by her and they mostly work with several people working in between them as any contact with the other causes immediate vomiting.

Being the ever diligent lady of southern Italy that she is, Caterina has been a simple lady who just wants to live her little creative life. Flaunting her creativity and culture is really the only thing that mattered to her no matter who ruled over her, so she’s never really been the most ideologically sincere. But where did this hard-working spirit really start?

If you asked her, she would assume it came from Isabella (2p!Nyo!Spain) as she had to work for that lady and her royal dresses super often. Making sure to create the most intricate of designs and coloring and weaving textiles together seamlessly made her skills quite well-known. Despite this blatant servant and boss relationship, if you asked Isabella, she viewed her more like a daughter. Catarina would argue that she was more like a daughter that was being nagged to 24 hours a day.

Yet her main concern on being perfect at everything came from not having to hear Isabella scream at her face. it clearly came from something else. When it came to whatever personal messes that would happen under Isabella, she would always end up being there to clean it up. She was already used to absorbing the consequences of someone's actions.

This trait came from a certain someone, it was her Grandma. It was so long ago that this trait happened in Caterina and it came from old Grandma Rome, or as she has known her: her Grandma Messalina. Whether she remembers it or not, Grandma Messalina would regularly put her feelings second to that of her little sister, N.Italy or as she’s most commonly known, Luciana. From a very young age, she learned that she had to be responsible for her little sister, no matter what and that she must always carry her on her back when grandma was simply too tired to do so. Even if she doesn’t remember it, this concept was placed into her so thoroughly that it has been placed into her subconscious for everything and everyone.

Thus came her perfection and all matters related to domestic chores and all matters to child rearing and beauty care. That only persisted once she had to deal with her more adamantly, religious catholic mother figure in the form of Isabella. While Chiara could confirm that Carmen (Nyo Spain) was at least a decent mother figure to her. She was not a particularly good mother figure to her younger brothers across the ocean. This could not really be said for Isabella as Isabella greatly loved her little brothers, although she couldn’t really accurately nag them entirely as a good mother should. She also didn’t really want to.

No you see this was only in the privilege was left to Josefina (Cuba) and Caterina. Where as Josefina had to work the field herself in her homeland and didn’t report back to her elder sister for months, Caterina basically got the domestic work on that lock down in Europe. With that also came a much more adamant need to ensure that Catarina was more or less the perfect girl in other ways. Despite not being humans, nations are still bound to human rules and morality and emotions so Isabella would regularly try to enforce that as a second player and as a girl who basically comes from a noble background, Caterina should know how to both behave demurely and intelligently. This ironically made sure that Caterina would never be able to commit violence so she never really got to learn any weapons or any skills related to seduction like her little sister would. It only really left her with more work to do as time went on and even worse a lot more lessons about what a girl should and shouldn’t be.

I know what you’re thinking isn’t she an artisan of classical female goods? Dear reader you should really understand that sewing and even jewelry making is a rigorous process that makes you have to slouch everywhere you go. To this day, Catarina still has bad eyesight from weaving all night long and doing embroidery. Her hands are overly stiff and her arms are oddly muscular specifically around the shoulders despite her flattering physique and it looks a little bit deformed. Really the only thing that Spain’s lessons did was taught her to relax and let her calm her body down a bit more. And also give her a proper corset. Which certainly did lessen the problem. Other than that, no weapons for a second player?

Yeah, no. That’s where you lost her because even for a girl who had to grow up with Grandma Messalina, who had the mess in the word messy, that sounded like a death sentence, especially for a second player.

So she had to improvise. Constantly busy and all these weird minor problems or not she still lived in a patriarchal society that could easily go against her, so you wanna know what she did? Anything is a weapon if you try hard enough, if a human male made the mistake of assuming that just because she was a beautiful woman that she was automatically delicate and submissive it would be the worst mistake of his life. When Isabella realize that trying to control a second player to remain innocent is a awful idea, she overtime did her little sister a favor, and hid the bodies for her (with permission of her boss, of course). In a twisted way, Isabella was proud of her.

Yes, this is how life continued for Caterina for a very long time until it came to the unification of Italy. She was reunited with her annoying little sister. Oh Luciana irritated her so so much. Especially when she realized how truly absolutely useless her spoiled little sister was. Of course, she grew to get used to it, Caterina was always a simple girl that just wanted to expand her culture. So in a weird way, she grew to love her sister and the way she acts and behaves and the things that she does. In a way it was endearing… in a way.

With her sister‘s primadonna tendencies, she certainly got things done for the both of them. Until she realized that between them, her sister really is useless. Running the propaganda machine of the Italian government must’ve been really tough for somebody who’s used to throwing her work on other people. Caterina was the backbone and Luciana was the face. So she worked double time to ensure that the Italian state and herself can actually have the ability to bite back with all the bark that they are putting out.

This endeavor proved to be more then she could chew at time so eventually, the only other person that she could write letters to and talk to she did so was Fabrizo. And the two agreed on one common goal: we have to help our little siblings in any way we knew how. So began that long alliance between a Nyo and counterpart. That entire alliance came from two different angles, but had the same outcome.

And this would keep continuing until the 1940s where Caterina realized that she and Fabrizio had far more to put up with then they would ever imagine. Where as his little brother was self-serving for his own crimes , her little sister was the propaganda machine in its full awakened form and Luciana had no idea how to make it happen unless Caterina was by her side at all times!

While Caterina didn’t necessarily mind the unification of Italy under this embraced ideology she would be lying to say that her workload wasn’t certainly getting annoying. Especially as her little sister took all the credit.

Nevertheless, none of that really means that she wasn’t happy to help. Regardless of who their boss is, It’s still her country so whenever her sister messed up, she was literally always there to serve her. Being by her side. Always prepared to pick up those pieces since the propaganda machine can’t really function without having to use and always being prepared to create the things needed for the said machine to work.

How long will this take until this cultural artisan officially cracks after having to put up with her useless little sister that she cares for oh so deeply? Reinforcing seams and keeping up a lie that the machine is trying to present could only do so much for somebody who would just like to enjoy her own culture. But hey, when your sister is the speaker, you have to materialize what she’s putting out to not embarrass yourselves...what can you but play along?

Fun Fact:

Caterina also tends to make jewelry as a side hustle and her most favorite jewelry to wear is a coral necklace with 3 Cornettos on it. Combined with her creativity and constant need to stay inside to continue working, people have come to the conclusion that she’s some sort of witch because of such specific amulet being on her body.

OH MY GOD SHE IS DONE THAT MEANS I CAN FINALLY POST HER

2p!Nyo!France- Charlotte gives lap pillows to small children and animals! If you’re one of her “lovers” (the men she scams) she’ll probably just kick you off.

2p!Nyo!England- Olivia gives lap pillows to small children and her “ideal man” (a man who doesn’t exist!)

2p!Nyo!America- Angie rejects the concept of the lap pillow. She thinks it’s pathetic. No one gets lap pillows from her.

2p!Nyo!Canada- Peggy thinks lap pillows are werid and intimate in a way she doesn’t like. It ruins her aesthetic.

2p!Nyo!China- Zhu thinks they are stupid. She isn’t against the concept, she will push your head off though by hitting you.

2p!Nyo!Russia- Viktoriya is evil. But she is willing if the guy has a lot of money and power. Maybe she will give a lap pillow to a doll? (The doll is a child she kidnaps named Latvia, everyday that poor child nearly gets strangled though.)

2p!Nyo!Romano- Caterina would rather be doing work. Maybe she will offer a lap pillow to an evil cat or a baby goat.

2p!Nyo!Italy- Luciana thinks you should end it. Why would she do that???

2p!Nyo!Germany- Yes. Absolutely! Yes sir,immediately! Mitzi would love to do a lap pillow with basically anyone! Especially if they are just her type! Delicate men!

2p!Nyo!Japan- Akane wants to give lap pillows to any guy that peaks her interest. There’s only one issue though, it’s not necessarily a lap pillow.

2p!Nyo!Prussia- Elsa would never do a lap pillow. Maybe. Unless it was a baby. Actually, if it was Mitzi as a baby. She rejects the notion’s of having a lap pillow for anything other then kids.

Oh, who is this great beauty that we see?

Surely it is a Venus on earth, but I fear it is a lovely lady by the name of Luciana Vargas, the representative of Northern Italy. Here stands a lovely beast who has a beauty so great that it really does outshine her horrendous personality. A personality of a woman who was attention seeking and prissy could only be considered similar to the background of a rich noble woman who has the grace of a love goddess also has the confidence and assertive nature of a woman who has never been told no. Compared to the other representatives of northern Italy-Feliciano who represents the people, Luciano who represents power, and Felicia, who is but the ideal, beautiful Italian woman-Luciana is an incompetent and beautiful presentation of what power looks like in the flesh.

She represents a merchant and upperclass value of culture and class in northern Italy. In a certain way she can be considered the enforcer of propaganda itself. After all, what is beauty other than another way to ensure an idea is always viewed as perfect. When a woman is basically perfect down to the way that she smells, walks, and breathes then isn’t that not the proof that the enforcement is all the truer?

Where has her sister has a rustic beauty, this assertive confidence and demanding nature all began with her grandma Rome, Messalina, viewing her as not only the most important of the two sisters, but teaching her the importance of appearance. Her grandmother filled her with many thoughts and even compared her beauty near to the goddess Venus herself. And while you would actually be one person to look up upon her face and truly believe that she is the definition of beauty itself in human form-let’s be realistic there are hotter girls out there.

Being a woman of few skills she’s mostly skilled in being able to take out the correct aesthetics to do things and knowing of people from the inside. Her social skills may be impeccable truly, but this new complex of her own beauty has resulted in a grown woman who would become attention seeking, whiny, and prissy.

Despite all of her elegant taste and fantastic way of reading a room, her beauty has always been the main thing, saving her in every definition of the term. Her more negative traits even when they’re not as present or overshadowed by the lights in which that she surrounds herself with. For centuries people have fought over northern Italy, and it’s vast resources and in her case, her generous beauty and fair intellect.

Tragically only her sister Caterina, Sophia (Austria), and Endre (Hungary) are the ones capable of seeing how much of a never ending attention seeking crybaby that she truly is. For centuries when under Sophia and Endre’s house, Luciana was far from a servant and more like a slave driver of other servants. Being so mesmerized by her assertive nature and her beauty was the real reason she got any work done. Honestly, despite the fact that the work was done, the only reason to why Sophia and Endre did not complain was because she was a little girl and at least the work was done. However, they did complain about one thing…there was definitely one thing to complain about.

It was how much Luciana demanded attention! This never ending, whining and pissy attitude whenever somebody would turn away from her would be more than too much to bear. Luciana was literally babied by the tweens for centuries, at any time they tried to punish her or actually get her to learn something of value pass social status she would run away!

One could argue that maybe it was because she was young, but she’s also not truly a person. She is a nation in personified form. So all this emotional dependency combined with this ever present two-faced behavior made all the more confusing. So she has all the energy in the world to be beautify herself at such a young age, and even to some degree takes etiquette classes and poetry classes, but the moment that they actually expect her to physically learn a skill as small as sewing or drawing or even painting she backs down??? Really the main thing that made them more concerned was that she had a particular fixation on money. The amount of times that she would just let things slide as long as somebody at her borders paid her directly and it would affect the entire power structure of Italy’s government and economy helping the rich. What does this mean our dear reader?

It means that she is Damn near useless Italy! She’s just got the decency to not be completely useless. Which makes the self appeasing incompetence all the worse! When time finally came that Italy was unified and Caterina and her ended up meeting each other again Sophia and Endre were all about to cut ties with her until she started tearing up! Forcing them to stay. Whatever dark magic those tears have definitely seem to be working!

Tragically, though somebody actually had to start taking the fall for her, and that was her big sister. Caterina. Oh yes, Caterina who was already trained by their grandmother to bow down to her little sister’s whims and her little Aphrodite complex was quick to pick up the slack for her sister. From helping her get dressed, cooking for her, and even cleaning for her. Given her sister’s more obsessive beauty routines, this all also extended to that as well. And even though Luciana would be ever so demanding to her big sister, she would never assert power over her. Realizing that at this point, she and the Austro-Hungarian couple were really all she had. She came to the grips that she was quite emotionally dependent.

Naturally, this proceeded to let her seek out lovers that she would toy around with, and would eventually used to protect her at all times. A insane feat she is aware, but if you considered the possibility that she doesn’t really want to pay them directly? What a strange self-absorbed woman…do not get started on the fact that Catarina eventually had to get rid of certain men that would become a problem for her little sister and even herself. The only real job that Luciana actually had between the two of them was being a socialite by the time that they were actually reunited. All of this extra attention didn’t make it any better. It eventually came to a point that Luciana had to be sat down by her older sister to be told that she can’t keep stringing along men like this! The bodies are getting harder to hide!

Nation or not she has to start being reasonable about these things. Our incompetent beauty queen was certainly reluctant to take such advice. She eventually begrudgingly came down to it.

Being a socialite, this advice also allowed her to gain more power among her social groups and have her bosses respect her even more. As a string of lovers caused quite a controversy in the form of people wanting to be around her and associate with the nation. But not necessarily in a way that is a particularly of an appealing view to others. Outside of a select few. With a pretty face, people are able to forget a lot of things, especially on an immortal pretty face.

Then Mussolini was eventually put into power in 1922. This would be what Luciana would the best two decade of her life. Under his rule, all the representations of Italy were put under a certain level of control. Luciano was his enforcer and his proud second in command as far as representatives go. Feliciano was the face of Italy that he was happy to keep happy! And Felicia was the ideal, bureaucratic beauty of Italy. Felicia and Luciana have never had a good relationship at least in the classical sense. Much less a servant and master relationship as a two never really interacted with each other. Yet, Felicia always admired Luciana for her assertive demeanor, and a flawless skin and appearance. For Luciana this was always a hollow relationship . She never thought anything less of Felicia. Maybe she did have a problem with the fact that she was the ideal face of Italy-when she is right here! She did not cry to her boss. She was extremely mad about it if anything, and if anything, ironically enough, he did give her a position saying that her beauty was important. Saying that her contribution was something that you should admire.

And she ate up all of those compliments he gave her at that moment. Mussolini proceeded to give her the job of running the propaganda machine. In honor for her at first glance, as it truly was a job was she had to just simply stand there and look pretty, but also a job that she can easily have her older sister help her with. Combined with the admiration for her beauty, she learned the hard way that beauty is not the only thing that you need to keep fascism running. No. She had to put on a far more cheerful demeanor. An exhausting endeavor, all the glorious attention and the importance given to her by her boss pass being a beautiful socialite and noble woman made her feel so much elation that she felt she could reign these people like a God. Even offering her boss his own little speeches so he can be the proper boss of Italy.

Yes, this was an exciting time for her. Until World War II finally hit and Mitzi and her officially would meet. Being already an ally, the two of only really meant twice before. With one time being a moment that Mitzi kidnapped her for information when she was working with the ally powers only to realize that she really had nothing to say. Luciana was never a close ally led them on to that degree and given her position has always been to be a socialite. They really had nothing to talk about. Mitzi just let her go. But once the World War II began, Mitzi had become more open minded to the girl. Mitzi admired both of Luciana and her boss for their accomplishments when they two met again. Out of everyone in the Axis Powers, when it came to soft power: Luciana was the most admired. Her ability to rally troops to fight for her, and to at least have the energy to want to fight for their country was so admirable to both Mitzi and Akane that they actually greatly respected her. In a very twisted turn of events they were almost excited to go to war and have her as their ally. Little did they know…

It took a very long period of time for them to realize who exactly was doing the work because the more she spoke to Luciana the more they realized when it came to matters of politics that she truly was not that smart and borderlining on incompetent. However, by the time she realized this, she allowed her to bully them so much but it had already given this attention seeking crybaby with a goddess complex too much influence.

Soon enough, by the time that the war truly began, she had shown that she was so useless that she was practically embarrassing herself to anyone outside of her own countrymen! By God, how she wanted this war to end already as the humiliation of pretty much hearing all of Europe secretly making fun of her drove her mad.

Do you know how embarrassing it is for people to know that you’re all talk and for all of your people to see that you were all feeling horribly??? After all, she’s putting all of her emotions out there and all her passion in her heart to make these speeches and to write them down for her boss and to make sure everyone’s uniform looks good…. and they’re just constantly failing! There truly is no point for her to have all these theatrics and dramatics and all of this cheerfulness that doesn’t even hurt true character!

Maybe this war should just end already.

Fun Fact: After the War, Luciana and Felicia would begin to hang out more often. But that’s mostly because their bosses wanted them to be involved for beauty products and advertisements for vacations to the country. In a way they both acted as models. But the worst part about it is that nobody really listens to Luciana anymore. All this time she thought beauty meant people listen to you. With Caterina around less often the only one she could emotionally confide in really was just Felicia. Mitzi and Akane hang out with her once in a while, but when they’re not having their own emotional crash outs she feels rather lonely. Back in the day, she can get whatever boyfriends and keep them attached to her because they’d be so high on her love. Now she’s just relegated to stalkers and her own bodyguards falling in love with her.

Caterina still shows up for her once in a while though, to ensure she’s fine. She still doesn’t hang out with her that much.

Family: Germany, the other german states, Austria, Switzerland, (little Bruder) Liechtenstein, and Germania. (Olivia, France, and the dutch siblings are distant cousins)

Nickname: Else by Mitzi (Charlotte and Isabella get a pass). Elsechen is used by her other sisters on a good day. Don’t give her nicknames.

Pets: a small White eagle Named Breidel.

Age: 27

Height: 5ft 6 inch

Weight: 127 lbs

Weapon: a Sword

Special Abilities: She can actually talk to animals. She’s also a perfect swordswoman, she really is the only member of the axis where bringing a knife into a gun fight would actually allow her to win.

Elsa. A pledge to God. That is what that name means. Covered in crosses, you have never seen a young woman who is still more devout to this day. A nation who has been waiting for the sweet release of death. She would be lying if she has said that she did not enjoy her time on earth and being a part of the Earth. A quiet and stoic nation on the outside, those who know her know her as a very sweet older sister and a kindred spirit with humans who dislikes hypocrisy, and knows that she must begrudgingly be a part of duty. A deeply devoted woman to her God and her country, she is easy to admire, and will be even harder to forget.

If and when the time comes that is. Her name is Elsa Beilschmidt. The best big sister you could dream of and your worst bully that you could have.

To be Religious means many things to a woman who is a knight. It means to be serious, cold, and disciplined are all the things that make up the intelligent part of this woman’s mind. Conquest is not a game and confidence and preparedness, is needed to do so. Honestly, when it came to cleverness her first player has always been the one in charge. She’s only ever been moderately smart and fast thinking at best. But being religious also means being a good natured woman with duty, civility, kindness, and honor to her people. She’s always been someone that people admired and trusted. Along with somebody that people genuinely feared. A true Valkyrie that would send you to whatever God that you worshipped unless you converted to hers. Although she would kill you faster if you called her that. She was always the least open minded to other religions for the longest time up…until recently that is.

How did this heavenly warrior start off her life?

The eldest of the Germanic state sisters as far as we know, she’s actually an extremely trustworthy resource on everything involving the 2p!Nyotalias and their place in this world along with the place of the other counterparts. Whiles our Prussia, Gilbert, is varying in his sources of information, she is most definitely the most trustworthy source. It seems teams that she has written everything down since the beginning of her existence, she has exact information on what their natures are as Nyos. Especially as second player and first player for Maria and her. As far as she was concerned the main representative would be the and would be the one that was liked the most, or found first by their leader, their nyo would be the ideal woman or man and raised as such depending on who they were. Usually, it would be depending on the gender. The 2p!Nyotalias would complement the Nyotalia (sometimes the opposite), and usually the 2p of the eldest would get the bottom of the barrel. With this in mind, Gilbert (Prussia), Klaus (2p Prussia), Maria (Nyo! Prussia), and herself seem to still follow this trend, but have the same relationship, regardless among each other. A loud cocky Noble and their stoic and confident Knight. One of them just has more hostility then the other. It’s just hard to tell which one it is.

For most of their life together, these two mirrored sisters simultaneously represented and remember the other as a proud Angel with a demonic voice and a fierce Valkyrie with an angelic one in their dreams. Their earliest memory they had was when both their fathers, Ancient Baltic Prussia, leaving them with their grandmother Germania and her human husband and their mothers, the St Maria Order. They were decided to be raised among each other. It seemed to be the best optic. It was there they first met and they both received names. Maria for her first player, and Elsa as a symbol that she belonged to god. As far as their country name was concerned even though they were basically on the homefront they were all told that their names should be Prussia as a nation. To honor the respective ancient baltic who was taken as a spouse. He apparently just left out of shame. Eventually, they were explained that as girls, they weren’t really allowed to participate in fighting...at least for now. They were even told what their roles were as female representatives of nations would entail.

As nations that they wouldn’t most likely last long unless they knew how to work together and how to fight together, most importantly that their father most likely left because he was going to die sooner, as mommy’s male representative truly beat him, and he was forced to be her husband to live a few more centuries years. She has no idea if that’s actually gonna work though. He’s welcomed to come back if it does (dark implications are always dark with these ladies).

Hearing this, the two little girls came to an agreement. An agreement that would ensure their survival (and their awesomeness as Maria put it) they that sisterhood would begin of a knight and her princess. Even though they looked very similar, little Maria with her hair in white pigtails resemble a little angel with the tenacity of an adult man and Elsa with her pure looking and serious face had as aura of confidence that would be unmatched to the devil himself. They shook on it, knowing that this would be a perfect idea.

Thus started their amazing plans. As a little girls, they started out small and when their grandmothers and mothers passed and they soon found themselves eventually having a ton of little sisters to raise and a new found cousin in the form of Austria and Switzerland that they had to keep under control. Being tied down to the homefront meant working from the inside and the outside. With Gilbert and Klaus going about their ways they knew dang well that most of their contemporary were not a fan. They also found themselves needing to make sure to lower morale of their enemies. Let’s just say that the two young girls in their youth were quite evil at times despite their angelic appearances, morals, and demeanors. No matter what they would go for the lowest of the low on Maria’s suggestion and Elsa’s varying levels of support. Admittedly, it was just vocally straight up, saying that they were divine harbinger of truth and making sure that they were known as inevitable as the second coming of Christ himself. This also included mild stalking. When it came down to it there were several incidences where poor little Viktorya when she was actually poor and innocent (before she unintelligent and rich) was horrifyingly stalked and gave nightmares by Elsa watching her outside of her home with Anya and their siblings. Actively looking like a ghost. In allegedly becoming an inspiration for Ivan who heard about these stories and thought they were endearing.

It was from these many missions, did Elsa find the two birds that would be the pets that would be known as Breidel (Elsa’s pet) and for the longest time, Maria never really came up with a name. So she just called it “Birdie” for the longest time. So the name just stuck. After some further inspection throughout a century, it seems like they were two different species, despite how similar that they looked. The little bird Elsa had was really strong, and it seems to be a baby eagle? How interesting?

The years went by, and these two sisters went around disciplining their other little German sisters, and bullying Austria, Hungary, and anyone who would get in their way. This included their new friends that they would confide in. Elsa struggled with this the most, especially since she found herself enjoying pilgrimages with the rich Spaniard Isabella and her time off with the sweet French nun Charlotte. But hey, that’s a struggle of being a nation. That meant less religious vacation time…

It must’ve been karma or something, though from being a bully…They were in hell, wondering what heaven must be like if they ever saw the afterlife. So many split apart German states. They had to get their other little sisters on a strict program, dang it! They did not count on the possibility that they had such a diverse group of differences among them! Some of them were just so kicked back and relaxed and some point it just became so much to handle because these stupid girls needed to take these things seriously!

I know a shocker that Maria is actually easy to take seriously. But Elsa has always known her as a very serious princess, despite her more cocky personality. Given how far they’ve come at this point it would be more like Elsa is knight and she’s an aristocrat in denial. Maria had a lot of intense patriotism and this complete lack of order was really messing her up.

It seemed the possibility of controlling these bratty little sisters was getting harder a day by day. The stronger this Princess and Knight became the more work they had to do, and don’t me get started on poor Gilbert and Klaus and what was going on with them…those guys oh God… oh brother…. Oh brothers.

When they thought all hope was lost. The concept of unification started coming up. Obviously, they considered making themselves represent this unification. With Holy Roman Empire gone the only thing really truly relating them to the southern half of Europe directly, they need something other than culture to come off like a group of valid states under one roof rather than a group of little kingdoms and Prussia hovering over them vaguely sometimes?

Then… Mitzi and Monika spawned from the sky. As if they were little angels that came down from the heavens! Answering their prayers on how to handle these other little sisters stats that they have managed to gather (who are all grown women by the way). The had something to unite under. Oh their new dearest little sister! Big baby Germany was the key to all of this! Elsa was close to tears of joy as she finally saw an excuse to actually have the perfect child of a sister that she could mold to her ideal nation. Yet some reason for all these years of Maria being the cocky princess and Elsa being as strict as they were…they couldn’t do it.

Can you blame them? Have you ever seen such cute little girls in your life?

They did a complete switch up.

Monika not only became a proper woman, she became the ideal woman of the state in every way under Maria’s care. If she ever disappeared, her little sister needed to take care of all of her big sisters? After all, responsibilities is the biggest honor that somebody could have. Elsa taught her that.

Elsa also did a completely different 180. Her happiest moments were with Isabella and Charlotte, so she just began to try to mimic that interaction as much as possible with Mitzi. Mitzi just had such a relaxed childhood because of this. And it’s such a happy childhood too. Obviously, she stood in morals and values of religion in her, but she kind of just wanted her little sister to mostly be happy? But it was still second nature for her to make her as strong as possible. She just gave her a very strong sense of obedience and justice.

They had no idea what happened, man. Those two women have been living for far too long. It seems as if the other elder sisters of the German states seem to have taken the same opinion too. Monika and Mitzi were very spoiled. It’s a miracle it didn’t get to their heads.

Yes, all was good… until The Great War. Oh my God. This was just the beginning of a problem for everybody. She pretty much just started life last week. You really think Elsa likes seeing her sister having to do grunt work? No. No, she didn’t. Just being a knight didn’t mean standing around all day. It also meant actually knowing how to fight. Well, she was pretty proud when big sister Elsa’s lessons were used for the power of good by Mitzi’s hands. While her sister was being a vigilante as the Weimer republic, Elsa was following suit like a beautiful holy knight . It was a very bad place to be in. But with her little sister terrorizing the nocturnal habitat of metaphorical monsters, Elsa was making it a nightmare in the broad daylight for them. It wasn’t hard to leer them in. After all, who would believe you if you saw a woman in armor get rid of a wrong doer in the woods? It’s the modern era after all. White Knights aren’t real.

Maria, of course, knew of this and completely allowed it. She was rather petty that they basically made her obsolete. Plus, the two were too used to the system that they once had so any interaction with them became a standing point of still asking for permission.

Then World War II hit… Elsa got kind of concerned that her little sister seemed to be quite at odds with herself. Even then she was mostly willing to go along with whatever this was from her sister’s boss, same thing went for Maria.

Just like her sister she wasn’t necessarily the ideal, but she wasn’t really told to sit back to be doing bureaucratic work. Ironically, in a twist, she was viewed as more like a Brunhilda figure by then. Even outside of this context, she was still quite mad about it because she doesn’t like being compared to pagan deities, but I fear, she is a sucker for a compliment. Her scars made her look more like a battle goddess to the new regime. A phrase that she did not really appreciate is it went against who she was. It was not a goddess.

Overall though, she did not like her little sister’s new boss, who by extension was her boss. Especially with this new war that broke out. She’s always been a woman who would do what others won’t admit to doing. You don’t get this far in life just by being prideful and having audacity. You do what you have to do begrudgingly and with shame. That is how society is built. But to this ideology… they are actually starting to piss her off and creep her out. Yeah the new uniform is nice… she hasn’t really shown this much skin before. But finding out that she was doing that vigilante stuff more so than her sister apparently appealed to them and her appearance really did too, but really that’s not the problem here. All the compliments about her features, yeah, they’re creeping her out now .

She never had super long hair compared to Maria, it was still noticeably long. Short yet falling on her shoulders like a very loose type of Bob that she would always keep back. With her a few girlish habits so she had. Her favorite style was to use a braided bun. Something that she would eventually teach Charlotte on a trip out with Maria and Marianne one day. But it only really went to her shoulders. Her slender neck just made it look more cute. She quite liked maintaining it that way too. But these comments became a bit too much resulting in her crashing out and cutting it down. She wanted it to be harder to ask her to grow it out as long as possible so she cut it down to a pixie cut. It didn’t stop the compliments. Honestly, it made it seem as if they admire her more.

But then she met those two. Italy and Japan. Luciana Vargas and Akane Honda. She’s never seen two women more horrid in her whole life. Even worse, her little sister seems to be attached to them now? What’s going on here? She didn’t raise her to be like this? These two as friends are you kidding me? That’s silly little Italian is just dumping all the work on her and blabbing on and on and on and on and on. That Japanese girl may look decent but she’s got this look at her eyes if she doesn’t actually want to talk to anybody there.

Are these two girls even actually fit to be involved in a war? She’s been calling them out all day directly. Begging them to do something. Hoping that maybe, maybe… they can actually physically take more seriously?

To say the least, Monika (1p!Nyo!Germany) stopped anything worse from happening. Lucana’s bodyguards are always watching and even though Elsa could block a bullet with a sword, she’s getting old. Monika heard the stories from Maria she is not gonna last long she knows how old they both are. Thank God Mitzi was not there.

When is this war gonna end so that way Elsa doesn’t have to see these two girls again?

Fun Fact: In modern day, Elsa became far more attached to Mitzi. She isn’t clingy by any means, she’s just trying to preserve a little time left she has on earth before she gets to see heaven when she dies. She would never say it in such a sentimental way though, otherwise she gets this vacant looking in her eye and this cold feeling on her shoulder.

She says she’s fine. I don’t think she’s fine.

Family: China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and S.Korea (she insists she doesn’t know them)

Nicknames: Akane-ojousama and Honda-Sama for subordinates, but Akane-chan is fine for friends

Pets: a male Japanese Bob tail named Maneki…Yeah she is aware. She thought it would be cute.

Age: 29

Height: 5ft

Weight: 115lbs

Weapon: A naginata- although she is mad she can’t use it…

Beware all who are of the assumption that this elegant looking creature is anything except the exact personality description of the word: creature. Akane Honde is a truly an elegant looking traditional woman of Japanese origin, but for those who are truly unaware-she represents the Japanese royalty itself. A group of royals so notorious for their indulgences that every success for the people is just a true benefit for themselves. A selfish, rotten, and passive aggressive woman who hides behind a visage of purity and soft-spoken nature. If she was a true sadist, it would be over for everyone. The upside is that her violence can never be open because she would be in such trouble and her soft-spoken cover would be blown. Thankfully she has a variety of other interests that keep her occupied: me-time and “alone” time.

Seemingly classy on surface level this is not true, as many of the more cultured aspects of Japan could is thankfully due to Sakura and Kiku. Her first player that is truly the definition of the ideal Japanese woman down to understanding every aspect of her own culture and presenting it in its most idealized form. And Kiku, who represents the proper and clean Japanese every man has had to deal with her demands for decades from a distence. She’s even separated by Kuro, the rather sadistic and cold man filled with a great superiority. No. Akane is a uncaring, passive aggressive, and a notoriously irresponsible woman who has only managed to get this far in life due to the fact that she managed to pretend to be simply a quiet, beautiful woman, and was smart enough to throw people under the bus long enough.

The few things that are truly admirable about her is her propensity for violence and her ability to manage to get people to rally against an enemy due to her deeply hierarchical value system that allows her to get whatever she wants in life. Just like the rest of the Japanese representatives she is obsessed with honor and is really the only thing keeping them together as a cohesive unit that manages to function like cogs in a machine. Although, her so called honor seems to benefit her and she doesn’t hide that. Putting up with her, it seems as if they all genuinely think that she cannot be trusted as a representative of Japan. Sadly, her allies and anyone who’s ever tried to be friends with her, don’t know this. All other Japanese representatives function to give whatever influence they can their home and just learn to tolerate Akane’s worst traits. It’s functioned for centuries. The dislike of her seems to keep this machine going.

Centuries in isolation can do a lot for people. For Sakura and Akane, Sakura had to put up with being this girl’s foot woman since they were young. After being separated from China’s influence they were eventually on their own. For different reasons, but still they at least took some degree understood they had to rely on each other. But Sakura did not ever understand whether or not Akane understood that she had to be nice to her? Outside of her obscene irresponsibility, as she would regularly be responsible for the missing documents and ‘accidentally’ causing drama among the Japanese princes and princesses. Sakura diluted herself that there may have been a positive hidden motive underneath all of that, as Akane does believe that women have the right to rule over men, yet her definition was always different compared to what one would assume. Then again, this was before Sakura realized who she was dealing with was a very irresponsible, lazy girl. Overtime Sakura had learned to tolerate her second player, and her second player had to learn to take advantage of Sakura as one of the best things to do when you want people to do as you want. She also opened up Sakura to learn to read a room better then others. Showing that the way to power for a girl was to say as little as possible and make yourself look as good as you can. Sakura mostly learned this through punishments. Akane’s philosophy was a popular one for the royals in Japan. And they also opened the door for her own propensity of violence. Or rather, having other people do it for her. While she would loved to use her naginata, she has realized for the longest time that at this point it’s mostly for show. As Kuro was the one enforcing the shogunate, she and the royalty would rather not have to do any of the work as she considers it unproper and unladylike. If Sakura had anything to say about it, it was because Akane didn’t like getting to do anything at all and neither did their bosses! Akane has literally been demanding Sakura to feed her and wait on her since they were kids. Pass the general respect that she’s had for her second player for a long time just for the way she carries herself-how she benefits others in such a dark time was always such a eyesore to watch! Sakura can rather subtly confirm to you that Akane is barely qualified to be called a lady or proper by any definition. Just based on what she’s been forced to see and deal with.

Akane is a really special case. Because despite the fact that she clearly is a spoiled, rotten princess and acts rather self appeasing a lot of her self appeasing traits seemed to consistently help others. Whether it be pushing for Japanese women to learn to fight and to be a good subordinate to men to make sure that she can get more luxuries, it did help Oirans in the redlight districts suffer far less. She only really supported it because she heard about those saucy boys in the Kubuki theatre so she and her bosses who liked hot girls were happy to oblige. What about when it came to the everyman? Hey, she needs them around to give her stuff and all, yet, I ask, have you considered the possibility that she doesn’t like poor people? It doesn’t matter. At the end of the day she needs them around to be her worker drones. So she and the emperors are obligated to help them?

Notice anything? Oh yes. The spoiled rotten representative of the Japan mostly got her away by complete accident and the majority of the respect she earned came from other people projecting a good motive from the poor. Truth be told…it’s rather obvious that there is not a good bone in Akane’s body. If anything she has learned that succeeding is basically saying nothing and doing a ton of things that make people assume you’re better than you actually are. Akane’s definition of tradition may not be kind but she learned that the best way to maintain that is by sticking to traditional values and pretending to be what others people expect of you. If you dealt with her the way Sakura has- this view would fall quickly.

One would ask though? Were does this lead Akane in the future after isolation?

When her door doors were eventually opened up by America (Alfred specifically), a new interest came up for her, and it was a need to ensure that she was always ahead of every European trend. At this point every representation of Japan had realized exactly who they were dealing with for the past several centuries. A spoiled, rotten, and evil princess. Out of all of them she was definitely the one who would be benefited the most out of not being isolated as she desperately wanted to expand her influence outside of Asia. Yet again only for the new trendy items that she could have asked. Being of a rather manipulative and unlikable character. An enjoyment of the new clothing, the new technologies, and the new manners. The ability to travel to far off places! It was also appeasing and appealing to her! And gave her many many ideas on how to make herself look all the more above others.

She did eventually go on the make several new European friends and outsiders! All of which were under the view she was cultured and classy. Oh…to this day none of them know the truth.

When ww2 happened, Akane was forced to be the face of the imperial army and do the worst thing ever…work! Yeah…Sakura was there to pick up the slack as the idealized woman of the common people, Kiku was the the diplomat, and Kuro was the war head. Poor Akane was stuck actually having to do the plans! All she thought she had to do was look pretty! she actually has to do labor for this propaganda machine to work! What the hell? Despite all her fun time with her European friends (except Italy and Germany) she was hoping to just be at home!

She did everything to go home faster. From going on to approve every possible plan to just not participating in Axis meetings for her “alone time” because she hated being around women for so long! This german catastrophe and the screeching Italian were so annoying! Even when she was telling them to go away with the same subtlety of her homeland, they took it as advice and hung out with her more! Even when she was walking away to leave the conversation they would keep talking to her?

What is this???? A living hell?!

Only time can tell what will happen to our rotten princess…oh what will we do for our rotten princess?

Fun fact: The Japanese royalty are basically no longer in power in modern day. So Akane has been relegated to be pretty and annoy the royals and nobility into being traditional. Outside of that she aids in minor affairs like curriculums in schools and aiding politicians in publicity. Sakura still checks on her out of habit, only because Akane is a borderline neet and doesn’t want to do anything but lay around all day. When work isn’t calling, she reads and has “alone time”
