Intro...and Question!

[princesskoorime.livejournal.com]

Hello, fellow fans. Adriyel-chan here as a new member!

Now normally, when I join a community, I (to be honest) lurk. Has been so for 6 years, and I'm comfortable with that.

However I'm breaking my tradition because I have a rather interesting question.

Would a nation be considered the same thing as a country? What I mean is, would a group of people (for example the Jewish Nation) have the same sort of personified spirit as the countries, do you think?

I very much would like to get many people's opinions on this, if you would!

Wow, that's a lot of history! I'm a biologist so history has never been my thing, but Hetalia has certainly made it more interesting. I know Hetalia isn't something you should base your understanding of history off, but it has made me think a lot more. Chibitalia especially. I was like "who's this Holy Roman Empire guy?" and sure enough, a whole section of history just wasn't even on my radar.

What will all the various Acts of Union (and the massive and lengthy histories of the countries), Himaruya was probably relieved just to have one character representing the UK! (Also, for the main WW2 storyline, Ireland was neutral and so wouldn't be a major character one way or the other).

I love the whole Chibitalia story! It brings back fond memories of school, only in cuter and funnier forms :-)
