Notes: AU. Prussia as East Germany. Genderbending, as well as something else that I can only call “sexbending”. Genderqueer and non-binary gender identities. This cut is not real.
Summary: The sex of a nation is not solid, but during childhood is in a state of flux beyond their control. As they grow up and gradually gain command over their own shape, the nations must try to come to terms with each other, their bodies and themselves.
